Jerome Bettis on Mark Sanchez eating a hotdog on the sidelines last week...hysterical

I'm not sure I understand why Mark Sanchez is apologizing for eating a hot dog on the sidelines against the Raiders. It was a West Coast game, which throws off your whole body schedule; plus, the Jets had that game in the bag at that point.

When I played, perhaps a water boy or someone would have some food on the sideline, or you would ask someone to grab a bite from the locker room, where there's always a spread. But let me tell you, it's not hard to get a hot dog. I've had a hot dog. I've had cookies. I actually had a hamburger. It wasn't done up the way I liked it, with ketchup and mustard and lettuce and tomato. But I had a hamburger, and a sideline hamburger serves its purpose.

it's not professional and doesn't merit a discussion. no one eats hot dogs at work. they're professionals that should act like it. just think about this for a second. search your soul. duh.

I find it difficult to believe you actually mean what you say. Probably just bored and trying to incite lunacy. You're the resident Ignatius J Reilly

are you serious? you really think eating is acceptable while on the sideline? look this type of stuff shocks me to the core. it really does. but maybe for some people, it's acceptable to eat everywhere and any timme.

supreme, i know which kid you were in college. you were the one that brought his breakfast/lunch/dinner to lecture hall with a soda and you ate it while the teacher lectured. disgusting.

I suppose there's a better time and place but who cares. It was all in fun. People forget that sports isn't life and death. Maybe I have a bit of a double standard here because as long as Mark Sanchez performs (which he has), who cares?

And on that note, you are absolutely right. I was the kid that ate in class (nothing noisy though). In fact, my first semester I only showed up to calculus either in the last 15 minutes to get the assignment or on quiz/test day and, yes, only with food. And literally no one cared because I set *every* curve, and helped my classmates outside of class--so even the professor was cool with it.

I don't think a majority Jets fan cares that Sanchez ate a hot dog in USC country.

Shock you to the core? Eating a hotdog? And no one eats hotdogs at work? Have you ever been to the financial district?

I'm better at calculus than you. Or is it 'I'm better than you at calculus?'

But it doesn't matter if you're micheal jordan or anthony roberson...performance doesn't dictate which norms an individual is allowed to bastardize.

Whatever you say, Bill Faulkner.

Ideally performance shouldn't dictate different sets of rules. (Where do you get your sensationalistic rhetoric? Good God it's delighfully ridiculous.) But that's not the way it works. I mean, ask Bill Parcells or Terry Francona about this and then ask them why they won their respective championships. For someone who is typically quick to **** on idealism, you're holding an awfully idealistic perspective here, bro.

For the player himself I don't care and I'm sure it doesn't really hurt the team. So in that sense, I don't really care. Mark Sanchez is a world class athlete, so eating a hotdog isn't going to hurt him or the team. This was actually discussed on TNT during the NBA playoffs when they caught Hedo Turkoglu eating a pizza before the game, and I thought it was interesting.

However, these athletes are on television and they ARE role models. Kids are at home watching this guy eating a hot dog during a game and there's no doubt they'll be saying "Man, I can eat a hot dogs all the time too!" when they really can't.

There's a time and place and MS eating a hot dog during A GAME isn't the time or place.

Everyone should be allowed to use a crack pipe on the sideline. That's a fact.

LMAO. I started this thread and haven't checked it in a while. In my short time on this forum, i've been amazed ar orangeblobman's ability to completely ruin a thread, or ironically, make a comment that is ridiculous to the point that it incites people to respond. Either way, you got to believe it is purposeful on his part becuase no self respecting orange blob would use words like "shocks me to the core" to discuss eating hotdogs.

On another note, I thought what bettis said was perfect. Hey, when you gotta get your grub on, you gotta get your grub on. Having played basketball alot growing up, I can't imagine eating a pizza before a game though...
