Terry Bradshaw, the charismatic star of Fox NFL Sunday, recently emerged victorious in a lighthearted poll conducted among his colleagues regarding who would be the best cook for Thanksgiving dinner. However, not everyone shared the same enthusiasm for his culinary skills. Michael Strahan, the New York Giants legend, was quick to express his reservations about Bradshaw’s cooking when the topic came up during a special Thanksgiving segment.
The Fox NFL Sunday crew gathered for a special broadcast centered around the highly anticipated New York Giants versus Dallas Cowboys matchup. The panel included host Curt Menefee, along with Howie Long, Jimmy Johnson, Bradshaw, and Strahan, who all participated in a behind-the-scenes social media video on X. The question posed to the group was simple yet amusing: “Who do you trust to cook your Thanksgiving dinner?”
Strahan took the lead in the discussion, making it clear that he wasn’t keen on the idea of Bradshaw whipping up a Thanksgiving feast. With a touch of humor, he remarked, “I’m not eating squirrel, which is what Terry would cook.” His playful jab at Bradshaw’s Southern roots set the tone for a lively exchange among the co-stars.
As the banter continued, Strahan didn’t hold back his thoughts on his other colleagues’ cooking abilities either. He dismissed Jimmy Johnson’s culinary skills, claiming, “He would only feed you fish,” and poked fun at Howie Long, stating, “He just eats and he’s a mess.” Ultimately, Strahan confidently declared his own cooking prowess, stating, “Probably myself. They call me Chef Boyar-stray for a reason. I throw down.”
The humor didn’t stop there. After Strahan’s bold claims, Jimmy Johnson chimed in with his own vote, surprisingly choosing Bradshaw. “I have had Bradshaw beans before, and they are outstanding,” Johnson said, showcasing his appreciation for the Pittsburgh Steelers legend’s cooking.
Menefee also leaned toward Bradshaw but expressed some hesitation over the potential meat choices. “Terry’s from the south. That’s important. I will trust TB. The meats, possums, squirrels, that may be a different story. But the sides, I’m going to go with Terry,” he explained, adding a humorous twist to his endorsement.
In a twist of camaraderie, Howie Long opted for Menefee, suggesting that the rest of the group would be too distracted to cook properly. Meanwhile, Bradshaw returned the favor, selecting Johnson as the one he trusts to prepare his Thanksgiving meal. “Easily Jimmy Johnson. … He eats a lot of food. I don’t necessarily know that he cooks a lot, but if he knew he was cooking for me, he would put a lot of thought and effort into it,” Bradshaw said, highlighting the mutual respect among the NFL icons.
The playful exchange among the Fox NFL Sunday crew resonated with fans, who took to social media to share their laughter and enjoyment of the segment. One fan wrote, “Tears of laughter over here,” while another chimed in, “Who doesn’t love Michael Strahan?” The chemistry and humor displayed by the panel showcased the lighter side of the NFL, reminding fans that these athletes are not just competitors on the field but also friends who enjoy a good laugh off it.
As the Thanksgiving holiday approaches, the camaraderie and banter among the Fox NFL Sunday crew serve as a reminder of the joy and laughter that the NFL brings to its fans. Whether it’s on the field or in the kitchen, these legends continue to entertain and engage their audience, proving that football is about more than just the game.
In the end, while Terry Bradshaw may have won the poll, the real winner was the spirit of fun and friendship that permeated the segment. The playful jabs and lighthearted competition among the NFL legends created a memorable moment for fans, showcasing the unique personalities that make Fox NFL Sunday a beloved staple in the world of football. With Thanksgiving just around the corner, fans can look forward to more entertaining moments from their favorite NFL stars, both on and off the field.
