Wilford Brimley Confirms to Twitter: He’s the Diabeetus Guy, Not Andy Reid

serious question is the chiefs coach the “diabeetus” guy

What did we learn from all of this? Wilford Brimley has a Twitter account and he’s fairly active on it. Now, there’s no confirmation that it is him and not a parody account… but there’s also nothing to lead us to believe that it isn’t him. So let’s just go with it and enjoy the content:
