Towel Boys

Baker Mayfield explains.
Some things may just stay the same.
Three years ago when Tom Brady showed up to turn around a moribund franchise, he had a hangup with center Ryan Jensen’s sweaty arse.
Given that the Bucs play in Florida, it was a given Jensen’s perspiring posterior wasn’t going to just evaporate.
So Brady had an idea: Have Jensen shove baby powder-laden towels between his buttcheeks. It worked!
Yesterday after underwear football practice, Brady’s successor, Baker Mayfield, was asked about this probing subject.
“I think I sweat just as much as them,” Mayfield said of Jensen and the team’s other centers. “They’ve continued the towel tradition. I think they enjoy it to where they didn’t get yelled at anymore.
“There are just certain things that you just have to adapt. Tom [Brady] played long enough. He had a lot of things to be able to adapt to any sort of climate or scenario. Those are the little things that I think will probably continue here.”
So folks believe that fellow Bucs quarterback Kyle Trask would be a better quarterback by just observing Tom Brady. It’s not wrong.
But it seems Mayfield has learned from Brady, too. And he never played with Brady before.

Now if somehow he inherits Brady’s mental fortitude vicariously, we will be all set.
Good news is he just has to execute a play this year, and know when and if he should throw the ball.
When I think of Sirvocea Dennis getting a pick six in practice, all I can visualize is Winstons last pass as a Buccaneer.
Wasn’t his first pass and last pass a pick?
Geez what a wasted 5 years.

This post is just a microcosm of Mayfield. Thanks, Baker. I’m glad Jensen and the centers got your approval to continue the “little things.” To go from an obsessive detail oriented guy like Brady to a YOLO guy like Mayfield will be the biggest adjustment. Brady actually got the towel idea from Peyton Manning. Brady also did it in NE. It wasn’t just a climate thing. Manning is just as obsessed with details like Brady. They want a perfect snap every play. The go with the flow attitude is what separates guys like Mayfield from the Rodgers, Manning, Montana, and Brady. It’s also a big reason why Mayfield is a turnover machine.

I HOPE DEVIN WHITE WAS THERE TO WITNESS SIRVOCIA’S PICK SIX…THAT’S THE MAN WHO COULD STEP RIGHT INTO HIS STARTING SPOT IF HE BECOMES TOO ASSHOLISTIC ABOUT HIS CONTRACT…

It is awfully stifling here in Florida…maybe I should stuff a few baby powder dusted towels up my crack when I go out too??? Any particular brand? Scented or unscented?

Unless Baker is also wearing a powder laden towel diaper he’s only reaping the benefits along with Kyle.

That my friends is the strangest and also the funniest post I have ever read on JBF.
Wondering if the “National media” picks up on this? What angle they will use to make the towells proof that the Bucs will suck this year? LOL
Go Bucs!
