Mateo's Bro Landed a TV Gig

Filed under: TV News > Matthew McConaughey

mx0077230__opt.jpg

Matthew McConaughey’s brother, Rooster, got himself a reality show.

No joke–he goes by the name Rooster. AND, he named his son, Miller Lyte, after his fave beer.

So classy!

Doesn't look like nepotism was totally in play with this deal, though.

Rooster is in the oil pipe business.

The show he's going to be on, Black Gold, is like the oil exploration version of Ice Road Truckers — you know, a show that offers a glimpse into the lives of men with dangerous jobs. Nothing we'd ever watch!

So, looks like his 'skill' was why he's involved!

Wonder if he'll be running around topless, like his bro???

    Does he go by the name Rooster — or is that his real name? You indicate both. Oh I'm sure grannie must be thrilled to have a grandkid named after a beer.

    His real name is Michael Patrick, why don't you or one of your many illiterate writers get their shit right before posting it?

    Perez, you're Cuban, you should know better than to make fun of people's jobs, Cubans respect hard work, so Rooster (it's a nickname, and the little boy, Miller, his name was clearly meant as a joke. Not that I think it's a great idea to joke around naming your kids, but it's better than some of the rubbish I've heard.) It's not fair to say "skills". Pipe fitting is a dangerous serious job. What "skills" are involved in your job? You make typos!
    I meant that as an illustration, we should respect people for working hard.

    Rooster, what does means, Does he has a big cock?

    How about stop the reality shows and give us real entertainment with creativity and talent?

    His brother is a very nice looking fellow. Deadliest Catch is a good show, and I look forward to seeing 'Black Gold.'

    Ice Road Truckers is a great show! And Axe Men isn't too bad, either.

    You'd never watch Ice Road Truckers?? It figures. It's a pretty good show, Pansy. This one sounds interesting, too.

    Not another Oilman from Midland, TX!!! Bush was enough..PS Rooster's alot older than Matthew so please keep the shirt on. He is a nice enough guy but a reality show? Please say it isn't so!!!!!!!!!!!

    Well, no comments on the names.. absolutely no comment at all.. but check out the size of his feet. Doesn't look like he's packing much heat! What a shame.

    Good, Perez. You finally used "nepotism" correctly. Progress.

    I bet Rooster's hotter than Matthew - real men with real jobs and real hard working man muscles- hell yeah. Not some panysified California snot.
    It's a little hard to take a guy seriously that wears as much makeup as me.

    Don't get your hopes up–he was a short, fat, cocky bastard when I met him.

    You know Perez, usually I love you but your post sounds strangely familiar to David Sedaris' stories about his brother Rooster. You're not plagiarizing are you?

    Re: M from Toronto
    He is not a pipe fitter-he owns a trucking company. BTW he looks nothing like his brother. He is MUCH older and a drunk. Hot wife, though

    Leave it to YOU to put that hateful little "zing" in about how, obviously YOU feel, about oil field hands. Listen, PerASS, if it werent for these folks doing this VERY dangerous job, we wouldnt have the oil made availabe to us. Albeit, oil IS at a ridiculously high price per barrel, there is NO need to dis the ones who work the oilfield. The ones on the derricks work LONG and DANGEROUS hours, NO MATTER what kind of weather. I say KUDOS to our oilfield hands..and you can bet your ASS, PerASS, that some of us, WILL INDEED, watch the program. Maybe you should to so you can learn a thing or two about the job. Oh wait, JOB..you dont have a clue what that is. It is REAL WORK..not just typing out nasty comments about things you know nothing or very little, about!
