Doesn't seem that long ago that Jason Segel was smoking up behind the football bleachers for Freaks and Geeks, but now he's switching over to the other side of the school system. Segel has signed on to costar in the Cameron Diaz comedy Bad Teacher, about a money-grubbing middle school teacher (Diaz) who goes after a colleague's boyfriend, who happens to be the model teacher at the school.

Segel is not playing the said dreamboat, but instead he'll be taking on the role of the kids' gym teacher. I'm already chuckling to myself just thinking about the very tall Segel in super short shorts tormenting seventh graders with a whistle. Can't you picture it? Amazing.
