San Diego Charger Marcus McNeill was spotted on the red carpet for Snoop Dogg’s 10^th album release party. The offensive tackle has plenty reasons to smile. After a slow start the San Diego Chargers are back on track and challenging the Broncos for the AFC West.

Former NY Giant Tiki Barber was on the Martha Stewart Show assisting her with “root beer short ribs and twice baked potatoes.”  Tiki warned, “Just so you know, I can’t cook.” I wouldn’t doubt it. He’s a southern boy. They know the deal!

Both dishes sound yummy and perfect for watching football. Here are the recipes.

Tiki also dished about his time in the league:

M: So you have had a really amazing and successful career as a football player.

T: I did.

M: What does it feel like now to be on the outside looking in?

T: I’m glad not to be playing. I did it for ten years Martha, and I got to tell you, my knees and my body were ready to quit when I quit.

M: So you did it at the right time?

T: I did. It’s timing because the Giants won the Super Bowl the year after I left.

M: But you prepared them. You prepared the team.

T: Let’s say that – let’s go with that.  <<<*side eye*
