I really like our sports press representatives, but I cringe when they are on camera, as they so often are.

Aw gee, we ink-stained wretches don't control the cameras in the press gaggle.

You can get close to Geno--and thus appear on camera--because there's no fear attached to that interview but there are some coaches and athletes (Mike Tyson comes to mind) where I'd just as soon stand about three deep.

There are reasons reporters are TV, Radio or Print.

Just a little work on the attire ? I assume looking at the video interview may provide some helpful feedback (or not).

But why is it all the dressed up pretty guys are into newsprint?? I guess the rest say: Hey it's in a gym, just wear what you were wearing when you got outa bed.

Asking hard questions of Tyson were best done via the phone.

Ha, you've got that right, Broadway. I remember when Tyson had to be restrained from going after Tim Layton of Newsday at a press conference in Las Vegas. I never covered Geno but I'm sure the sportswriters who do--Doyle, Fuller, Beth Harris, et al--appreciate his willingness to endure the media's persistent pestering.

Z was really, really good. Look out WCBB!

Leave Jim alone, he gets a lot of good stuff for us.

given how much print journalists make these days, this is probably his go-to-church shirt.

Geno has mellowed. In the past, if a question tended to disrespect him, his team or a particular player--he'd be less that friendly--Some think DT was his favorite, maybe, but he was very protective of Maya--and I loved it.

Not just Print reporters--it ain't you dad's old church dressing.
