Greg McElroy Eviscerates Cole Cubelic For Eating Donut Burger During SEC Network Broadcast

During the SEC Network broadcast of Texas A&M and South Carolina, the broadcast crew sampled food from the South Carolina State Fair. Jordan Rodgers ate a two-foot long corndog and turkey leg, while sideline reporter Cole Cubelic ate a burger that featured donuts as the bun. Monday, Cubelic’s radio partner Greg McElroy jokingly shared his displeasure with the segment.

“I’m fine with you doing that if you’re on Tennessee-Martin/Tennessee,” McElroy began. “I’m not fine with you doing that during a close game when it’s 17-14 and I’m freaking out because my team might lose their third straight. The game is going sideways. You can’t start eating food in a game! So Cole checks out when the o-line starts playing poorly. I am sitting here on the edge of my seat — as a South Carolina fan — absolutely freaking out trying to win the Governor’s Cup or whatever the hell it’s called, trying to win that for the first time. I am freaking out. ‘Oh my gosh, our team’s gonna do it. Beamer. We’ve got to hang on, boys. Hang on. We can do it!’

“And then, I fast forward and I have to see a Bachelor contestant eating a two-and-a-half foot corndog. I’m sitting there watching Cubelic scarf down the literal most disgusting looking piece of food I’ve ever seen in my life. The only thing that’s more disgusting than that was when he ate a Bloomin’ Onion on the dang sideline. But that’s at least appropriate because it was a sponsored element! You’re doing it for the sponsor! Outback paid for it! They paid for it! That’s why that’s appropriate! It’s never appropriate to eat on the sidelines!”

McElroy then remembered a food related scandal from his time in the NFL with the New York Jets to continue joking with Cubelic.

“Mark Sanchez ate a hot dog on the sideline against the Oakland Raiders and got crucified for it! Now, we’re just encouraging this! We’re encouraging this world in which we make it about us, the broadcasters. Not just us! But our overindulgence as Americans to consume high caloric content on the sidelines! You are at work! Grinding! You’re supposed to be an XO guy. You’re supposed to respect the XO. I would rather have you break down the second step of the right guard than I would see you eat a donut burger on the sideline. A donut burger! On the sideline! Have some self respect! At least eat some quinoa! At least eat an acai bowl! Eat something that will allow you to live beyond 52! Don’t eat a burger that has donuts as the buns!”
