AJ Taylor puts three baseball players on The Hornet Hot Seat to talk everything fromLeBronto Jersey Shore.
If you were a cast member from "Jersey Shore," who would you be?
Tanner Mendonca, pitcher:"Pauly D because I'm laid back. I don't get into the drama. I just have fun."
Dallas Chadwick, pitcher:"Ronnie because I'm jacked."
Ty Nichols, pitcher:"The Situation, because I coordinate and I'm the boss."
Best video game: "Madden NFL 11," "FIFA 11," or "MLB2K10"?
Mendonca:"'Madden,' I just dominate."
Chadwick:"'Madden 11' because I beatMendonca."
Nichols:"'FIFA 11' because I got into soccer after the World Cup."
Who's better: Michael Jordan or LeBron James?
Mendonca: "MJ. Six rings to none for LeBron."
Chadwick:"Jordan. Never saw MJ play but LeBron sucks."
Nichols:"Kobe Bryant, but MJ if I had to pick one. LeBron is a trophy chaser."
Which "Jersey Shore" cast member is head coach Reggie Christiansen?
Nichols:"Definitely The Situation. He calls the shots, he leads and we follow."
