    Given Scolari talked about it today, they must be all waiting for MLS approval.

    Bendik talked about it with Gareth Wheeler as well (Wheeler tweeted about it).

    Heheh, Harry Redknapp having to negotiate another player departure date to TFC. Deja Vu.

    Should be less difficult this time.

    Watched from the start but yes, didn't catch on to the repeat until Bendik showed up again.

    Quite a difference from the dog and pony shows of the last two years.

    Not only that, the things he asks about are meaningless and he usually babbles on for so long that he answers the question for the player.

    Dobson is Pulitzer Prize-winning stuff compared to Lee Ummmmmmmmmm Godfrey. He's arguably the worst interviewer on TV and unlike most interviewers, he only has to cover one team/subject. Can't we trade Godfrey to Columbus for a bag of confetti?

    They scrum interviews with journalists asking the questions are far more informative that the cream puff ones sit down ones with GOL.

    Remember The Man, The Legend, The Goal 5-12-07 and All That #9 Left On The Pitch, Thanks For The Memories !!!

    well said Gilberto, "good luck with your portuguese"

    I think the players are sick of either same, or similar questions from the media every interview

    Paul Hendricks did his homework and connected with the guys. Adrian Serioux is pathetic that this is his sports and he hadnt done his homework. Didnt even bring up Morrow when talking about the Leftback position and said Rey may be an option in center midfield. He struggled with all the new additions and was going off of last year and thats it.

    Hendricks atleast you could tell put the effort it.

    Impressed with Lovitz, very well spoken and focused.

    Didn't see too much confidence from this group last year, but this year it seems to be there in bounds.

    According to some tweets Gilberto said he's aiming for 25 goals this year. Good attitude to have no doubt

    Can I just say that I absolutely love Hagglund's spirit? So great to hear him speak like this about the team. He is so excited to be here, and it is contagious.

    Paul showed more insight and interest in his interviews in one media day then Lee has in all his interviews combined. Not a single Ummmm or repeated question verbatim, sure some similar questions, but a different take each time. When you watch 5 of these interviews in a row, or like I do, 20 of them, Lee sounds like a god damn parrot who only knows how to say 5 phrases.

    I know that I sure as hell am.

    And yet, I'm starved for more! Waiting for the one original gem of a question out of the fifty that we've all already heard, that might just maybe, pry some new insight into the character of the players that will partake in the unraveling drama of the upcoming season on the stage that we know as BMO field.

    I think all the hype is starting to get to me.

    I need a detox.

    Exactly, and when Dike told Serioux that he had played with Nigeria versus Italy and scored a goal for them during the off season it was definitely news to him.

    Maybe we're just too Uber fan and hold to many people to the same standard. Personally, I think if you are going to report on a team, you probably should aim to know more than the uber fans watching your interviews about the subject.

    This is it right here: preparation. Watching some of these media guys ask questions makes me think they just rolled out of bed and winged it. I know this isn't the most important story you'll be covering all year, but do it some justice.

    This is why the bloggers get so much traction, because they actually care enough to know the details!

    i was impressed with the obvious amount of preparation Paul Hendricks did; had no idea who he was before today, thought he was a new hire for goltv canada (and would have been happy had he been)...and you could see he had his sheets in front of him with information and questions he wanted to ask each of the different guys that sat down with him
