Eddie Jackson goes from NFL to "Food Network Star" winner Eddie Jackson rose from cooking's version of training camp Sunday and emerged as winner of "Food Network Star." Once a promising cornerback with the Dolphins and Patriots, the two clubs where he spent the most time, Jackson will now get his own show on the Food Network and be featured in Food Network Magazine after winning the 11th season, hosted by celebrity chefs Bobby Flay and Giada De Laurentiis. Jackson competed two years ago on Fox's "MasterChef." That was a feat on its own. Now, he is reached the pinnacle of reality food TV.
"I achieved a lot in football, and just sports in general, but when it comes to football, I was never able to win that Super Bowl or win that big championship," Jackson told Sporting News earlier in the series. "I always fell short. So for me, if I win this, it will be the biggest accomplishment of my life, being able to take something I love so much with food and take it to the next level."
Who has been the mascot/status quo/father figure in the African American community for almost 30 yrs... Why after years....some almost 40-50 years ago all these women finally deciding to come forward to tarnish the reputation of the man who has been what most African American kids WISHED we had as a father.... IF he raped ANYBODY I think he should have been persecuted and punished the way any rapist would be punished.... And think about this...In his prime, at the height of his career, WHY would this man NEED to rape anybody...Women were throwing themselves at him..... My question is, at 78 yrs old....With all the accusations happening YEARS ago...Before I was even born...WHY is all of this coming out now....
You can't tell me that ALL of those women kept quiet and didn't go to the media...SOME of them wanted to be famous...
