In game interviews need to stop….

[TheBigKat]

It’s cringe, these guys are in the midst of a playoff game. It provides little actual context and just annoys these coaches

 

Harbaugh really wanted to tell her to go back and bake a cake but gave an amazing politician smile

 

 

[ECHornet]

The phrasing of her first question was intended to piss him off. Something like…

”You told us your team would be disciplined, what did you think of that last penalty?”

I’d have felt the same as Harbaugh. I wish we could have heard what he was about to say when they cut away. 

[T-Wazzle]

Yeah, I disliked this from the first time I saw them doing this.

So. Fn. Dumb.......it definitely needs to stop. With all the things coaches need to worry about during an NFL game answering stupid questions between timeouts isn't one them

How do you feel about that last penalty? Like you do about herpes ma'am. 

[Brooklyn 3.0]

They also need to stop going to the third (off-screen) announcer to tell a story. 99% of the time they talk over a play and usually something big happens. But the person isn't even paying attention and is talking about a player's grandma while a fumble is happening on the field lol.

[Camp Fodder]

Agreed. Before and after the game only. 

[Cullenator]

They (coaches) never say anything of note.  All kinds of "well we need to take care of the ball", "We'll make decisions we believe put us in the best position to win", "Those guys are playing to win", and equally useless and evasive answers. 

It adds nothing to the broadcast and should be ended immediately.  That is to say both in-game and post-game interviews.

 

And to add...

I dont care about so-and-so's grandand's service in WWII, or the fact that they raised their little brother, or any of that other goofy public interest crap they sprinkle throughout the game so the announcers dont have to be able to competently fill time between snaps

It's cringe when they do it in the NHL also, I mute the TV whenever they do them

XFL or whatever the other league was did it too.

Not a fan...

[SingleMalt]

I’ve said for years the side line reporter (which is always a woman) could be naked and I wouldn’t pay attention.

Completely agree, it's fuging absurd to take a coach away from the game to give some bullsh*T interview that no one actually cares about
