prompt 2

Hockey Player would absolutely accept the deal no matter the sport. Luckily through their extreme genius level intellect they are able to quickly adapt to any situation they find themselves in. In this case It would take approximately five minutes and eleventy two seconds on average to understand the rules of any given sport. Ideally they would be able to do this research beforehand but obviously sometimes these opportunities come up last second and Hockey Player could make it work no matter what. I think they would bring a presence that could be described as shaq mixed with shrek and keanu reeves but in space jam. If it doesnt work out theres really nothing lost, Hockey Player has so many deals in the works that these opportunities are more for fun than for financial gain. Rumor has it that besides being in the next mr beast challenge and getting a mcdonalds combo meal deal, hockey player is even in the queue to fight jake paul

Prompt 1

To be completely honest with you I think that Prok Tenderloin is probably one of the worst guys you could ever have invited onto the desk for an interview. While he might be physically interesting given that he is a sentient cut of pork meat, that does not make him an interesting interviewee as he really never has much to say. Whenever he is asked any questions, his responses are never more than maybe a sentence or two. He's not one to mince words or dance around the point. Very blunt and direct to the exact meaning of what he means to say. I believe that some people can appreciate interviews from guys with that type of personality but overall, I expect that it will make for quite a dull interview that not many people will truly find entertaining and will honestly probably hurt for the image of the league and for the team more than it helps either.

Weekly Option 1: Well we have a lot of great things to talk about with my team’s local broadcasting station’s analyst desk, starting with the Anchorage Armada’s run through the playoffs so far. I would mention that we are currently on a hot streak, having won series against the Newfoundland Berserker and the Great Falls Grizzlies and that we have another tough battle with the Quebec City Citadelles. However, we would note that we beat the same point leaders in Newfoundland as Quebec City so we can definitely get the job done. I would say that my player has been incredible in the playoffs and had a great improvement this season from last season. My player is very loose with my words and very calm and excited, ready to show the world what this team is made of in the press box. I would be making jokes as well as doing whatever I could do to lighten the mood and then get into serious analytical talk as I tend to do eventually. It would be a fun time and I would have a blast.

Journey Man has grown to love lesser known sports in his travels across the world, and has the humility to put himself out there and ask basic questions! This is a fantastic opportunity for Man, as he can help grow the sport with newer audience members, who are likely just as clueless as he is. Journey does his best to read up on the rules and traditions of the sport ahead of time, enough to hopefully at least be familiar with the basics to allow him to ask meaningful questions. It is very similar to the recent cricket international tournament where famous baseball talking head Jomboy served as a commentator, showing the comparisons between cricket and baseball and acting as an intermediary between cricket and baseball fans. Man was happy with his performance and found a new sport to watch, and hopefully helped the sport grow more internationally. And if not, well, he had fun and got a nice paycheck for it, so no harm no foul!

The playoffs are over in Baltimore. There are many things Ekaterina could discuss about this season, but not about herself. She would dodge a lot of questions to put the spotlight on her teammates. I think she would mostly speak not about her, but about how the new players changed the game and the locker room in Baltimore. Peter Tingle is a veteran, but new to the team, and managed to score 48 goals last season and played a major role in the team. Baardsen and Gilleyes were perfectly matched with an aging Olubori, creating a lot of space and hitting a lot. Those kids are the future of the Platoon and it is great to see the chemistry. Georg N’Zola played like he played last season: reliable, blocking important shots and sacrificing themselves on the ice. Nostradamus also did well for their rookie season, playing a good defensive game like they did in Nevada. The team is Jay Bryzi’s and Thomas Liebold’s now, a new generation of leaders that’s exciting to watch develop.

Thanks @xjoverax for the sig!

Written Task, Option 2

In the off season, Rodrigo Banes has taken the time to diversify his sporting interests in an unexpected way. This past year, after a last-minute birthday party bash, an evening of fun and excitement at the local Torrino's e-sports cafe in Northsouthern Montreal, did he take his first steps toward the wild world of e-sports. From clutch 360 no-scopes to shredding serious ass-phalt in Tony Hawk's Pro-Skater Whatever The Hell Version We Are Currently On.

"Uh, yeah, it's ok, I guess." Rodrigo Banes enthused about his first experiences with e-sports.

"I thought those were video games?" 

"Well, I mean, yes, technically they are. But they're online. Electronic Sport."

"I'm not sure how you're going to wrap up this interview, sport."

"Well here we are, regardless! Let's squeeze the announcement in and wrap: Montreal Patriotes Forward Rodrigo Banes will be joining the stream next thursday as the Montreal Hommes battle the Hamilton Vanguard. Tune in to Eastern Canada E Sports League (ECESP) for this exciting new partnership!

Prompt 2 - WC 156
Trevor Lahey, the person that has been banned and or bared from posting on social media has been asked to join the commentary box for an upcoming ISFL game. The ISFL clearly didn't do much research into Trevor otherwise they never would have asked him, they either pulled his name out of a hat or saw one of his many frozen chicken finger adds and thought "hey! that guy would perfect to come cohost a game broadcast!" So, what if he doesn't know anything about the sport, it'll be fine! It will definitely be entertaining, that's for sure, just like watching a train wreck.  Trevor doesn't know anything about football and he's not the best at speaking in general, he's better on the ice! Either way, Trevor would never turn an opportunity like this down, especially with how much they are paying him! so, tune in this week to watch Trevor Lahey cohost an ISFL broadcast!

Option 1

Sports analytics are an important part of every team's front office, and they're becoming more crucial with each season. SHL teams around the league are starting to pay closer attention to their team's Corsi, their Fenwick, their goals adjusted, and many more stats. For Seattle and their rookie player Stavros Kondos, they wanted to see how his pace of play would adjust from the junior game to the SHL game. There is no denying that it took time for the rookie to gain his confidence in the league and really hit his stride, as you could tell early on in the season he was not moving his legs as much as he should have been. The coaching team worked on some individual drills with him and his linemates to put the third line in the best position possible. They found that he and fellow rookie Steel Flex had developed some chemistry, so they kept those two players together for the rest of the season with a rotating winger. Going into next season, they will look for Stavros to dominate more puck possession and hopefully flip the shots-for versus shots-against stat in favor of Seattle.

Written Option #2

Aslak would probably turn down the opportunity to join a broadcast for another sport, regardless of the sum of money offered. In general, he’s already not much of a talker. He probably wouldn’t be very discussing hockey in such a fashion. Why does anyone care what he thinks? He’s just trying to go out there and play good defense. He’s not trying to garner any attention or stir up any controversy. Not to mention neither of the “languages of choice” in Quebec City are his first language, it’s already enough of a challenge to communicate on a day-to-day basis without the bright lights of a broadcast.

Throw in the broadcast being about a different sport entirely, one that Aslak hasn’t played or shown any interest in? There are way easier ways to make a fool of himself that don’t involve dragging down the quality of what would presumably be a great broadcasting team otherwise. It would be a hard pass.

Hoang really isn’t in a frame of mind to accept that kind of offer. Let them spend that great money on someone who can actually speak to the sport’s eccentricities and details, have them know the game. Tossing money around isn’t the right move to make for anyone in a professional environment, taking that project on is just not the right thing to do to the broadcast company and the crew in charge there. Also at the head of his decision to turn it down is his lack of interest in putting on a face and a voice for the camera and microphone. It’s just effort and mind-space that would be better spent on hockey and personal life, not in a broadcast booth watching a sport he doesn’t pay attention to, trying to find something meaningful to say. There isn’t a whole lot meaningful he wants to say into a microphone right now either.
