What about the local news isn't weird or incompetent?

An example there was that amateur porn in the video truck many years back, the girl was hot, but the old guy performed about as well as me after a 5th of gin and a six pack or two.

or does the local news pick the most weird/incompetent people to interview or answer their questions. I doesn't happen every time, but it seems like it happens often. its quite annoying

As someone who has been in, then out and wants back in, in radio. I've learned that there is a technique to good interviewing. Most people who do the interviewing on TV or Radio are terrible.

Roy Firestone, Anderson Cooper, John Stosel (sp) and the people who work at 60 minutes are probably the best at it. When letterman isn't trying to be funny, he can actually do a good interview. (Trouble is, he usually goes for the joke.)

I actually heard an interviewer a few months ago. He was asking a question, then got off on some tanget while he was trying to ask his question. The guy he was asking the question of, finally said, "I know there's a question that you want to ask. But for the life of me, I can't figure out what it is!"

      Bryce's Achilles Heel Is Not What You Think It Is

      By Bear Hands · Posted

      Totally.  I'm less comparing them as players and using him as a reference point.  I legitimately think Bryce is capable of being a better NFL QB than Kyler has been.  Kyler has no clutch gene and doesn't seem to have a grip on the locker room, or much love for the game.  Much different body types/strengths and weaknesses.   Crazy to think-- but Kyler is at year 7 as a 1.01...38-48-1 on his career, 0-1 in the playoffs. He's somehow played well enough to keep it going but crazy to think he's barely even touched the playoffs.  Hasn't done anything that special for the Cards.  That's what you don't want to be stuck in.  Cardinals are in softball purgatory with him.

      Hey You, You Don't Know Quarterbacking

      It's not analysis. There was no attempt to analyze anything or even convey new information at all.

      Hey You, You Don't Know Quarterbacking

      By Mr. Scot · Posted

      As to the topic, I've complained before about "superstar" mentality, i.e. the notion that you can win championships with one superstar player surrounded by a group of mediocre fill ins. It just doesn't work. The Manning-Brady rivalry was something of a showcase for that. The Colts general approach focused everything on Manning. The Patriots? Oh, they also had a superstar quarterback but they built a complete team, especially on the defensive side. This sort of thing is why I've argued many times that "system quarterback" should be to considered a description, not an insult. I know everybody loves the "MVP" athletic types, and they're fun to watch, but that's not necessarily the true path to consistent winning and championship glory.
