Brian Wilson - Yay Or Nay?

So, uh, that happened.
Brian Wilson.  The Weez.  B-Weezy.  The guy who invented Charlie Sheen's current way of speaking.  This All-Star closer and World Fucking Champion gets weirder and weirder by the moment.  I'm always on the fence as to whether or not Brian Wilson is serious inside about his actions being cool, or if he is constantly trying to be funny.  At this point, given his reputation, he could probably say just about anything and get away with it.

For example, in the pre-interviews with Joe Buck and Tim McCarver before the All-Star game, he told them that when he was younger he worked as a gravestone shifter.  Riiight.  He reset gravestones that had shifted over time.  I'm going to need a bit of proof before I believe the most sarcastic man in baseball.  Apparently, Tim McCarver thought to himself, "This seems like an honest gentleman- I totally believe that story!" because he mentioned it during the broadcast when Wilson was brought in the game in the 9th inning. 

"Rest... In... Peace..."
Or how about on "Lopez Tonight" when The Weez dressed up like the captain of a ship?  Didn't see it?  Well, here's a pic:

Cue George Lopez's horrible and out of place Sponge Bob jokes.
So what do we think?  Is this act getting tired?  Have we been inundated with enough Brian Wilson or are his shenanigans still funny?  I'm still a "fan" of the "Brian Wilson Should Host SNL" Facebook fan page.  Would that be of high quality or the worst episode since the era right after Will Ferrell left?

I will say this, for me, it is losing steam.  True, I laughed at his spandex suit from the ESPYs last night.  However, his antics are getting a little stale.  Maybe "The Franchise" will change that.  Maybe it will make them even worse.  I think he may want to take a break or up the ante in some form or fashion.  I'd be interested to hear how the rest of the country views B-Weezy.

Then again, if he leads the Giants to another World Series title, he can pretty much do whatever he wants.  Maybe even another video like this:
