Once looked upon as THE most bad-ass manly actor on the planet, Clint Eastwood’s masculine stock has taken a turn for the worse in recent days. It appeared that the multiple Oscar winning actor and director was destined to ride off into the Hollywood sunset with all of his man-gear intact until he decided to play second fiddle in a reality TV series starring his wife and daughters. “Mrs. Eastwood & Company” started airing on the E! Entertainment Network this past May and, it didn’t take long after that for the powers that be to hand down the ultimate punishment on Clint for his apparent lack of testosterone fueled vision. As of this writing, Clint Eastwood’s man card has officially been revoked by the M.C.C.O.A. (Man Card Club Of America).

M.C.C.O.A. member and president Richard Bullsak recently commented on Clint’s most unfortunate penalty. “Look at the late great M.C.C.O.A. member John Wayne if you want a stellar example of manliness,” President Bullsak stated emphatically. “He was dying of cancer when he made The Shootist. He ended his career in the most hardcore cowboy manly way possible! Clint on the other hand is spending his twilight going out with a whimper. He was only in the first episode of Mrs. Eastwood & Company for like 75 seconds while his wife, daughter, and some crappy singing group are showcased. We prefer to remember him as the guy who always had the biggest gun that never had to deal with trivial wife and family shit. It’s as if he knows he’s being shamefully henpecked right out of the club! We hated to do it, but behavior like this from such a living machismo legend is simply unacceptable………membership revoked!”
Bullsak says Wayne’s manly resume is left firmly intact………
But Clint is clearly two shriveled stones away from henpecked oblivion
It remains to be seen if the M.C.C.O.A. will allow Clint to make amends and earn back his once lofty status. The damage is pretty severe and Mrs. Eastwood & Company is only in its first season. If the show turns out to be a hit, the 82 year old icon may never return to his glory days. To repair his reputation, he must first admit he has a problem. A man’s got to know his limitations right?

Ahah, YOU try revoking Clint’s man-card! Look at him glowering in that Mrs. Eastwood & Company pic, I certainly don’t want to be on the wrong side of that man

I’m quite shocked as well. Ozzy Osbourne was ruined for me once I learned he wasn’t really the prince of all satanic evil. I just don’t know how to react to finding out Clint is just a normal dude.

If he does one more western, I would vote him back in. If it’s allowed, that is.

Damn, that’s hilarious.

but at the same time sad
At first I thought you were kidding about the reality series and then I realized that this is ACTUALLY A THING. Christ.
However, I do feel that John Wayne was a fake manly man. Jerk didn’t even go to WWII but preached about Vietnam. He also didn’t do his own fighting. Now, Tommy Lee Jones! THAT’S a man.

That’s fair enough. But though the Duke may have been a draft dodger, I doubt he’d ever stoop so low as to do reality TV. I agree about Tommy. His manliness radiates so much you can actually see it from orbit.
I too am surprised as heck that Clint agreed to this show. This guy has done everything and always has been classy and private. Now he’s going to perhaps putter around like Ozzy Osbourne did on his reality show. That said with all his past successes and having an attractive wife, he gets a pass on card revocation from me.
If you want a guarantee, buy a toaster.

He is THE MAN, there is no man alive who can take his man card from him.
If Eastwood would dance on the street in a pink tutu it would be manly to do that from then on.
