What Do Joe Burrow and Peacemaker Have in Common?

Joe Burrow is the star quarterback for the AFC North champion Cincinnati Bengals.

Peacemaker is a comic book superhero (?) — a kind of seriously disturbed version of Captain America.

What do they have in common besides a vague resemblance, an athlete's build and... uh, OK, even their significant others look similar.

Never mind that. They both play chess!

ESPN.com has a lengthy article today on Burrow's chess enthusiasm. Burrow keeps a board by his locker and evidently is registered with Chess.com.

Peacemaker, sadly, is not as enthusiastic. He has a chessboard in his beat-up trailer...

...but the men are not set up to any position.

This is understandable since he's been in prison for four years.

Will the two arrange a match? Will they double-date? Stay tuned.
