Sporting Kansas City News Release


Earlier this year, Kansas City Wizards defender Jimmy Conrad traveled to New York City to appear in a segment on the Food Network's hit show Emeril Live. Both Conrad and Colorado Rapids midfielder Pablo Mastroeni taped a segment with celebrity chef Emeril, which included an abundance of both gourmet food and wine - although Conrad didn't want to disclose the recipe of the day until the show airs.

"Pablo and I had a great time in New York," Conrad said. "To have the opportunity to go on Emeril Live was something that I'll never forget. I've been eagerly anticipating this appearance on television for quite some time."

The show will air Monday, July 2, at 7 p.m. (CT).
