JACKSONVILLE Cheap Barkevious Mingo Jersey , Fla. (AP) Doug Marrone’s love of bologna will end up feeding about 300 people.

The Jacksonville Jaguars coach donated 350 pounds of beef bologna Wednesday to an organization that distributes food to local charities. It was actually more like 330 pounds after Marrone keep some for himself.

Still, Marrone’s odd obsession with the lunch meat has become an interesting – and now benevolent – story line for the Jaguars (8-4).

”I’ve probably eaten more bologna than anybody else in the world,” Marrone said. Anybody ”who’s my age.”

The 53-year-old Marrone first disclosed his fondness for bologna following an overtime victory against the Los Angeles Chargers last month. Marrone said bologna and cheese sandwiches are his go-to meal after games.

ESPN dug deeper into the story and revealed that Marrone grew up eating the sandwiches in New York City and never outgrew them. Marrone even stuck with bologna and cheese through college despite getting razzed by teammates.

Marrone also wants his sandwich a certain way: On white bread, with thin-sliced bologna from a deli, topped with American cheese and spicy mustard. And he prefers to eat them alone with a glass of milk/

Marrone was asked about his postgame tradition again Sunday following a win against Indianapolis and seemed disappointed he was scheduled to eat dinner with his wife and some friends from Syracuse University instead of heading home to raid the fridge.

”I was thinking about you guys last night Ronnie Harrison Super Bowl LI Jersey ,” Marrone said after the game. ”There was a little brown on the bologna because, after a while, it gets a little (old). I was like, (shoot), I’m going to eat it anyway. I don’t care. Normally I fry it John Kelly Jersey Elite , but I was too damn hungry.”

Marrone’s bologna banter caught the attention of Eric Mittenthal, president of the National Hot Dog and Sausage Council. Mittenthal sent 100 logs of Boar’s Head beef bologna to EverBank Field for Marrone and his team.

Marrone opted to donate them instead of passing them around.

”It’s going to go for a good cause,” Marrone said. ”I think the right thing to do is help the local food shelters in the area, things of that nature. I don’t know if when they looked at it they said, well let’s send them down the bologna to match his weight. I’d (take) offense to that http://www.cincinnatibengalsteamonline.com/logan-woodside-jersey , about 350, but, again, I think it’s a great gesture. I think it’s something we can help with our community and move on from there.”

The Jaguars donated a pallet of 3 1/2-pound bologna logs to Feeding Northeast Florida, which said they would be distributed to nonprofit organizations Thursday and estimated they would feed about 300 people.

Marrone http://www.philadelphiaeaglesteamonlines.com/markus-wheaton-jersey , though, wanted to keep five logs, nearly 20 pounds of meat. The agency gladly obliged.

”You’ve always heard about the coach’s love for bologna, and to be able to get the love that coach has for bologna to actually make an impact, a positive impact in the lives of people in our community Authentic Jason Kipnis Jersey , we just thought it was the coolest thing,” said Frank Castillo, interim CEO of Feeding Northeast Florida. ”That’s a win-win for everyone.”
