Lessons In Awesomeness: With Kevin Youkilis


January 3rd, 2008 by NextRound

It’s being reported in a variety of places (here, here, here, and here) that Red Sox first baseman, Kevin Youkilis, has signed on to become the spokesperson for a new energy drink. What’s the new drink called you may be wondering?

It’s called SlumpBuster. That’s right, SlumpBuster. The drink is named after one of our top 5 favorite all-time terms for banging a fat chick.

And the best part is that Youklis is even developing his own “Youk’s Signature” version of the drink and the proceeds of that drink will be donated to charity.

Needless to say, we’re very excited about the SlumpBuster drink revelation. We’re also very excited about Kevin Youkilis parlaying sales of a caffeine drink named after a warpig you bang for good luck into proceeds for charity.

That’s ironic, funny, and awesome. Three things we love all at once.

So, here’s to Youkilis and his significant achievement in awesomeness. In an age where just about every quasi-athlete is entirely self-absorbed, he’s endorsing a drink that pegs him as a lover of the fatties.

Here’s also to Mark Grace, the guy who’s widely acknowledged for inventing the term and doing a significant favor to us all. Grace better be getting some sort of royalty out of this. Lord knows he deserves it.

After the jump, the SlumpBuster can logo. It’s impossible not to like a slogan like, “Take One Down”.
