the appearance
Face Claim || Jimmy Garoppolo
Identifying Features || 'carpe diem' tattooed on his left shoulder blade, stylised panther on his right calf
Overall || West is tall, dark and handsome with a smile that can charm the pants off all the ladies - and the men, too. He’s a typical jock: he’s strong and muscled; his body is his instrument and he looks after it with meticulous care. His closet is full of dark blue and greys - you’ll rarely see him in brighter colours. He’s ‘averagely stylish’, in his own words, and will often opt for dark wash jeans and a henley or dress shirt; in front of the camera, he’ll choose something a little snappier like dress pants, a blazer and a shirt with the collar unbuttoned.
the personality
Likes || football, chicken wings, Chicago (home), Chicago Bears (obviously), beautiful women, 1920s hot rods, sudoku puzzles, Eastern Illinois Panthers, jazz music, 90s hip hop, BMXing.
Dislikes || cinnamon (gross), Green Bay Packers (obviously), two-a-days in summer, country music, comic book films, coke (because pepsi is way nicer), coffee
Strengths || arms (obviously, because that's what he uses to throw footballs), charisma, car mechanics, football analysis
Weaknesses || playboy, overcoming adversity + handling disappointment, can't cook for shit, doesn't even know one golf club from the next
Dreams || previously: to be an NFL quarterback. now: who knows?
Fears || sucking at life.
the man
West is anything but a mystery. The man wears his heart on his sleeve - and his face and in his voice and pretty much everywhere. He’s a bit of a playboy but he’ll never mean to hurt you - he’s just never been that great at settling down. Weston James doesn’t ‘settle’. West has always wanted to be the best and nothing but - so on a full ride to EIU with everything to gain, he declared for the NFL draft in his junior year. And he waited.
The call never came.
He bounced from Tampa to Buffalo, practicing with the Ravens and the Patriots before fizzling out, his career over before it’d even begun. He didn’t handle it well at the time and he still doesn’t. Football is his life. With an incredible memory for his playbook (and everyone else's) and a talent for reading the field, he turned to punditry and analysis - maybe this time, he CAN be the best guy for the job.
