And I think the scouting report is pretty stupid, but I can see where the scout is coming from. In high school mom and dad were in charge of him. In college, athletes whole lives are pretty regimented. In the pros though you are really the only one in charge of you. If he truly has no "life skills" even completely discounting the cooking aspect, do you really want to trust him and throw millions at him vs somebody who has their shit together?

How many pro athletes make their own food anyway?

I guess this caught wind up in Ohio too and since then there were memes produced with Apple cooking for charity.

Is this another way of saying that he doesn't follow directions very well? Because cooking is as easy as following step-by-step recipes nowadays.

Respeck: A term that has so little respeck that it's not even in the dictionary.

You don't get the joke. It has to do with a record company owner named "Baby". He said that recently.

Eli, as a new member of the Giants, let me give you some free cooking advice:

First pour the cereal in the bowl, then add the milk. That is all.

Don't be ridiculous. He can afford to pay someone else to do it for him.

I'll have you know I make some mean dino nuggets, sir.

I even coat the carnivore mouths and herbivore bodies with Ketchup to simulate the blood, this cannot be denied. Anyway, nobody has ever had a down time at my parties with my dino nuggets. They are amazing and everyone just hangs on me the entire party. "OMG how did you get the Ketchup right!?" "Do you bake at 375 or 400!" "Baking sheet or rack!" It's exhausting.

That's a nasty pick. Keep building depth on the D-Line. Love that strategy and wanted Seattle to enforce a bit more in prior years. I swear to F'ing God... EVERY time Carolina pisses me off.

Wanted Keuchley
Wanted Short
Wanted Otah (get he's gone now)
Wanted Stewart (still pretty good)
Actually would've been VERY happy with Butler.

Every time this F'ing douche Panther team takes my players.

Since he was taken by NY, he can live in NYC and NEVER have to worry about cooking the rest of his life. Guess his lack of cooking skills didn't hurt him much lol

His cooking skills never mattered.

Once the Giants saw some with the name of Eli in the draft, he was theirs.
