I'm going "Old School" here. There was a time when the media actually interviewed players somewhat regularly. Yes, we see interviews. Typically, these are within the context of someone with a teams media interviewing. Though my intent isn't to focus on negative, I also would think such interviews shouldn't be so much fluff. So, if we had access to players and could ask questions, what would they be? What would we like to see behind the curtain so to speak.
I just thought this would be interesting. I have for a large part stepped away from time invested in Blazer fandom. I think it would be fun to do an entire series of what I'd ask in an interview. However, I doubt I will take the time. If someone wants to run with this, go for it.
