sports interviews as a whole are bad, "well you gotta give the other team credit" "we gave 110% out there tonight Bob", "can't squeeze our sticks to tight", "this is a big game/big win for us"

ugh the cliches drive me through the roof. Why I love watching sporting interviews with people that can give a good interview, and are actually smart enough to say what they want. Conroy was one of the best, as well nutbar coaches like Richard Martel (Chicoutimi) or Doris Labonte (Rimouski, you might get to see some antics of his next week) are always entertaining.

Commentary on Labonte during game 4 Rimouski/Halifax. "Labonte won't be happy with this call, and there he goes! Arms are waiving all over the place, he's screaming at the referee, looks like he's demanding a video review, but we don't have that in this league, he knows that"

Ahhhh why I love junior hockey, the coaches can be just as much of a gong show as the players.
