We get a lot of press releases e-mailed to us during the course of a week, 99.9% of which end up in the trash.

But this one, which will shortly end up in the trash, was remarkable, coming as it does within days of Brent Musburger's odd reaction to a picture of Miss Alabama in the stands at the college football championship Monday night, which touched off a week of debate over what constitutes beauty (and I'm being charitable in describing the controversy that way.)

This comes from a professor at the Boston University School of Medicine under the subject line, "Competing with Gisele!" That's a reference to New England Patriots quarterback Tom Brady's supermodel wife.

Media Alert:

Renowned Boston Plastic Surgeon Offers Free Plastic Surgery Consultations to Houston Texans Players' Wives this playoff weekend

"Will they need to look better to console their husbands after a rough weekend?"

Boston, Ma. - Dr. Jeffrey Spiegel, Prominent Boston Facial Plastic Surgeon and Boston University Professor, has a unique offer for the Houston Texans player's wives coming to town for this weekend's game against The New England Patriots.

Spiegel says, "Everyone is saying the Texans are under-matched in football, but the wives are also up against arguably the most beautiful women in the world, including Tom Brady's wife Gisele. I would like to offer the Houston wives free plastic surgery consultations this weekend in my Chestnut Hill Office," said Dr. Jeffrey Spiegel. "Boston Fans should not worry that their new looks will boost the players spirits as we'll make sure not to do anything until after the game is underway. This way they will look great in the weeks to come as they console their husbands after a tough and predicted loss."

Spiegel continues, "This isn't intended to insult any of the players on the Houston Texans or their wives at all, I really haven't even seen them. I just know that they're being compared to Gisele and the other stunning Patriots' wives - they are a tough group to compete against in any way."
