Oh My God, We Have an Ed Orgeron Coronavirus PSA

I try to keep myself from believing that God or whatever cosmic force you may believe in cares about things as trivial as Coach O recording a PSA about coronavirus, but I don't see how any reasonable person could argue this was not destined by a higher power.

The world is essentially shut down, there are no sports and we all needed just a little bit of a smile today. And damn it, if Coach O didn't deliver again. This man is without sin. He is the perfect man and deserves a Presidential Medal of Freedom for his contributions to our society.

I had no idea I needed Ed Orgeron to tell me how to cough, and yet I absolutely did.

It's also high comedy that the coronavirus PSA is coming from the man who is likely in the top percentile of people absolutely not worried at all about it. I promise you Coach O has informed his team that the second it is legal to resume spring practice, they will be out on the field. He's probably thinking up ways to get around the SEC suspension of all athletic activities right now.

He even held a crawfish boil with his team yesterday. Nothing says avoiding the global pandemic like a giant pot of shared seafood.

How can you not love this guy? He could obviously be governor of Louisiana and I honestly believe he could win a presidential campaign against the right opponent.

Ed Orgeron: not the hero we need, but the hero we deserve. A silent guardian. A watchful protector.
