Trust is a funny thing on the Internet. You guys come here trusting that I'll give you something interesting at the very least. I trust in certain sources for inspiration, but technology can blur the line between truth and fiction.

Say I found a video online. Imagine it is the only video on a brand new profile on some video hosting website. Pretend that the file claims to be Pittsburgh Steelers RB Rashard Mendenhall absolutely cutting destroying a rug to Michael Jackson's Thriller? Would you choose to believe that Mendenhall is that agile based on no corroborating evidence other than a video's name and no facial closeups?

In this Internet-heavy age that we live in, I'll choose to believe that that video-uploader didn't just pick a random name out of a hat and attach it to some weird dance performance. From here on out, no matter what anybody says, that IS Beetlejuice in that video.

I wanna see those hops in camp, Rashard. That's the only way you're not getting made fun of for this.

I'm not sure about that being Mendenhall. Vella Dance is located in Bridgeville, PA and assuming this is supposed to be Rashard in his younger years, he went to Highschool/College in Illonois...If this is supposed to be recent, I doubt Rashard is taking Dance classes and performing during the off season. We'd hear more about that anyway.

The guy looks to tall/thin anyway.

Music and Dancing comes naturally to Rashard. The man has moves that yet to be shown. If he wasn't playing Professional Football; he could be touring the world with his own show and band. Music and Dancing is in his blood. His cousin was the late Great Frank Mendenhall blues/reggae recording artist....PARTY WITH MENDENHALL

rashard is an awesome dancer and just because he is a football player doesn't mean that he can't do other things. like he said on steelers 24-7 the coaches knew what he was doing and they didn't have a problem with it. if you truly don't believe that this is rashard then check out steelers tv because they did a whole half an hour show on it.
