In a shocking announcement earlier this week, it was revealed that Brusky, the not-so-young-anymore defenseman on the Texas Renegades, does not like cheese. Yes that's right, the native of Wisconsin and self-proclaimed "cheesehead" being a Packer fan doesn't even like cheese. It was an announcement that had the Texas locker room in shambles. Players were running to management and demanding that he be traded immediately and that his lack of love for cheese was blasphemous. Some teammates were reportedly seen hyperventilating into a bag a freshly sliced cheddar cheese. Arguments ensued as the team began to question how one could get through life without liking cheese. Brusky sat through it all and continued to express his dislike for the coagulated dairy product. He even mentioned that he made a lasagna the other night without any ricotta cheese. This sparked much controversy among the italians and cheese lovers in the locker room, proclaiming that it wasn't even lasagna without the ricotta.

Brusky was quick to point out that his dislike for cheese had a few small exceptions. The first exception was mozzarrella. Pizza, mozzerella sticks, and string cheese were all safe to be eaten and were not blacklisted. The second exception was provolone. Provolone was not always given the all-clear signal, but within the past year or so began making appearances on Noah's sandwiches. It is unknown at this time if the cheeseless wonder has dabbled with any other cheeses or if he ever will, but we'll be sure to keep a close eye on the situation and report any new findings.
