Cool story -- fan hitched a ride with McD after a canceled flight this past weekend

[eball]

From the Buffalo News

 

I'm sure guys like @Nextmanup won't be able to stomach a story like this, since McD is "not his kind of guy."

[Brand J]

That’s a long time to spend with coach to not be tempted to ask about 13 seconds, Diggs, and Leslie Frazier’s exit. Not that he’d give you the details to any of those stories, but if it was me I’d have to ask!

[boyst]

i'd be so tempted to play the clap song as we drove.

 

i bet mcdermott talked about mma the whole time.

[Gregg]

I would be tempted to bring up 13 seconds. I wouldn't do it as I would be respectful to him and not bring up a bad moment, but I would want to. 

[97bills]

No matter the conversation, it would be cool!!!

Def would be interesting to get the chance at hearing those details, but agree that McD probably knows enough to limit what he says about those situations, just like he is with the media.

Cool story….

 

I can’t wait for McDermott to excise the demons and bring home to Buffalo a Lombardi.

Is he a big fight fan? Would make sense with wrestling background but I haven't heard that.

 

Also not sure how old the guy is but Madis pretty cute and an athlete too. Wonder if he was even allowed to talk to her 🤣🤣🤣

And you’d be traveling the rest on the way home on your own.

McDermott is a quality human being, would’ve been a cool thing to experience, 👍

And if you had you would have cemented yourself in the “I have no class” category,

I would have led with the question: 

 

"What kind of cheeseburger does Andy Reid smell like". 

 

I feel like it would be a Double Whopper no cheese. But Andy strikes me more of a Wendy's guy so he can dip his fries in the Frosty. So I would guess Baconator.

[May Day 10]

The guy sounds really full of himself.  Like he sought a reporter to talk about how he hitched a ride with McDermott and spoke about all his own coaching philosophies and his 'bright' future

I hop  a plane 2 times per week to watch my daughter play softball 

This story is Boring ...

Be careful in the wheel wells when taking off and landing. 😳

Did he try to sell McD on 4 Minute Abs?

Isn’t McD’s daughter 13 years old? Don’t think he was driving back to Buffalo with Jared Fogle.

Asking once is harmless, badgering him about it until the situation turned uncomfortable would be low class.

No, asking at all would be classless, especially fully knowing that it is a sore spot for the person you’re asking the question to. That you don’t comprehend this is really quite sad. 
 

It is called having social graces.

I think you’re more uptight about this than McD would be and would wager you’d get a chuckle out of him because he’d figure a question on one of those topics would come at some point during the 3 hour ride. Doesn’t mean he’d have to give anything more than he gave to the “classless” media.
