The ole "that's my/their job" bullshit. Hell, I guess maybe it is, but it's the fucking worst thing about these pressers. It's the post CWS-final presser and you go asking the losing coach about him taking a job at the rival, what kind of answer do you think you're going to get? 90% of the time it's going to be something along the lines of what we get from Schloss here, and these press guys know it. But, "I have to ask. I have to ask the hard questions." It's not a hard question, it's the easiest question to ask because it's the gossip everyone's talking about. Ask a question about baseball that someone hasn't already asked, you fuck. That's your job. You know you're not getting an honest answer about that coach taking another job on that stage.
And when the guy actually does bolt for the other job, everyone's gunna go back to this press conference moment and use the BS answer you got from your "hard-hitting question" to call the coach a snake/liar/POS, all because you thought you were "doing my job!" foh
