So how come Patinkin couldn't get it together and show up for his damn job on CRIMINAL MINDS? Brave, my happy white Cajun ass! [Sorry, but I used to be a fan of his (ever since he sang Che in EVITA) until that unprofessional faux pas.] But I will grant he may well have testicles the size of bowling balls to slap a professional wrestler on a daily basis, much less one as big and powerful as the late Andre.
This behavior pattern could hardly have been a surprise to any viewer (or, for that matter, Network executive or casting director) with even a passing recollection of CHICAGO HOPE...

Mandy Patinkin is the bravest man on Earth!
