As a rookie, Lorenzo Carter is assigned the task of supplying snacks for the linebackers at Giants training camp. Dutifully, Carter obliged. Respectfully, his teammates rejected the offerings provided to them.
Carter purchased and presented honey buns, brownies and cheese puffs. The feedback was not positive.
“They didn’t like my cheese balls!’’ Carter said, sounding somewhat incredulous.
The linebackers put their orders in. Gushers. Sunflower seeds. Beef jerky.
“They have regular beef jerky but they want the teriyaki,’’ Carter said.
Consider this a lesson learned and a test Carter had to take, and pass, or else suffer the consequences.
