*Donatello Arrabiata Post-Draft Presser

[lamboalfredo]

Now approaching the podium, the Sultan of Sandwiches, the Diva of Diners, the Pharoah of Flavortown, Donatello Arrabiata.

I will be answering all football and food questions.

Will you take me to funky town?
Will you take me to flavor town?
How do you like Cats the musical?
How do you like getting drafted to Philly?

Yo, @Nokazoa!

The real question is, can you handle Flavortown? I would've loved Cats the Musical if they casted it with pizzas instead of cats. I'm pretty pumped being selected by Philly. I wasn't expecting it to be honest, but I'm excited for the opportunity!

How do you make the perfect Philly chessestake?

Will you be making people in Philly cheesesteaks?

Can I have a Philly cheesesteak?

Bro, @TubbyTim69! I'm working with some local Philly Cheesesteak shops on perfecting my recipe and I plan on making it for the whole team!

Hey Donatello!

What's your biggest goal for this upcoming season?

How do you think your presence on the field can impact the game?

Are you proud of your season in the DSFL?

Are you proud of the spot that you were picked at? Or do you wish you would have been drafted higher?

Hi @J0EB. My biggest goal this season is to be more consistent and stop dropping passes. I had games where I contributed and games where I disappeared. I need to build off of the those good games and be productive every game. I had an issue with drops last season and I'm hoping I can fix that issue staying down in the DSFL before I head up.

I think my combination of speed, hands, strength should make me a very valuable tool in the receiving game and blocking game. I had a nice 10 pancakes and didn't give up a sack last season, so I'm hoping to continue that.

I'm proud in the fact that I finished the season and learned a lot. Now I know where I need to focus and build off of it.

I'm not worried about when/where I'm picked. They could've drafted me with their last pick and I would be just as hyped. Being drafted is a big accomplishment and talking to the GMs I got a sense that I'll be a big part of their plans.

Thanks for the questions!

What will your touchdown dance be this season?

What was served at your draft party?

What kind of season stat wise are you aiming for?

What's up, @Hallmonitor_20!

I plan on doing some bachata in the end zone because it's spicy and perfect for Flavortown!

I was by myself because of the quarantine. I made my signature spaghetti and arrabiata sauce, a Mac Daddy mac & cheese, nachos, and pizza WITH pineapples. Yeah I fucking said it. Fight me.

Hoping to double my stats this season. I only had 1 TD and that wasn't enough for me. I got a taste of that donkey sauce and I want MORE!!

London should have a prolific passing game next season, do you expect to be the best tight end in the DSFL?

My guy, @benstackinpaper! I can't worry about the other tight ends in the league. Just need to be the best tight end for the Royals to help us win!

What wise words of wisdom can you give to younger Tight Ends hoping to get an edge in future drafts?

@Jo3fish5, like my father told me, "if you can't handle the donkey sauce, get out of Flavortown".

Sometimes being a good locker room presence is more important than numbers. Be active, be present, show your teammates effort.

Are you disappointed that you only made 10 pancakes last season despite being an expert chef? What do you have to say to those who expected more?

Is there a player or team you consider your biggest rival? If so, why?

Would you rather fight one hundred duck-sized horses or one horse-sized duck?

Thanks for the questions, @Memento Mori! No, because I'd rather make the far superior french toast. I tell those critics "go to Denny's".

The Birddogs will always be my rival. They started in the league at the same time and the rivalry started right away.

One horse-sized duck. Could you imagine the size of that foie gras??? All of that duck meat!?!? Throw some donkey sauce on that and you've got a first-class ticket to Flavortown!

Is there any truth to the rumor that the mayor of Flavor town is planning to pass a city ordinance criminalizing the homeless?
Are there any rookies in the S23 draft that you are hoping to play alongside?

Yo @2Burkeulosis they got it all wrong. I didn't want to criminalize the homeless, I wanted to caramelize the homeless.

I'm excited for all the rookies joining me on the Royals. We had a really good squad last year, so they'll have big shoes to fill. Whoever comes and makes an impact will have my attention.
