I can't understand why anyone would have something negative to say about having a Redskin player interviewed (on a consistent basis no less) at this website. Sounds pretty sweet to me. Hell, interviewing the Redskins waterboy would be amazing, much less a starter and potential pro bowl receiver.
Go figure.
JF, nice interview - I am jealous - BL sounds like a down-to-earth kinda guy. Great work all the way around.

I second that sentiment wholeheartedly.

I listened to the show last night. First of all, great work by JF in getting the show together.
I must say I was impressed by Brandon. He's an articulate, likeable guy, and has worthwhile things to say. I was half expecting the usual kind of monosyllabic mumblings that we hear from top sportsmen all the time. A lot of his answers were refreshingly different; sometimes it was just because of a different tone rather than different meaning, but it was good to hear somebody talk without just repeating the usual "we're all in this together, and all the guys are working so hard to turn this around" etc etc etc.
I now look forward to how he does with some of the trickier questions that are likely to come his way over the coming weeks. But let's hope that he only has to answer questions about how the Redskins made such a remarkable turnaround in the bye week.

Yeah you hit the nail on the head. This is exactly what I've been trying to convey to you all... the media people that I consulted about doing such a show, their response to us getting Brandon was resoundingly common...
"You couldn't get a better player to interact with."
We're very, very fortunate that he agreed to do the show. I'm very excited and will do absolutely everything I can to make sure that Brandon and JF get what they need to make this show our own and to make it successful.

That's why you're the "Boss." I was defending BL on the field earlier, but you're totally right that was the wrong debate. He is an articulate, likable, entertaining guy is the right response. Those are the attributes that justify a show.

One step closer to full accreditation...and another first on a site full of them.
Oh, and for those of you who are wondering how you can become the kind of person who would be worthy of licking JF's boots...
...the help you need is not currently available on the internet. Sorry.
On a side note:
Hey, Tonto! You said "slag", eh?

That's funny.
We should be taping the second show tonight hopefully, and will have Episode #2 of the BLloyd show available for you all on Wednesday at about noon.

That's what happens when you talk to those damn Canadians all the time. I also said someone was hooped the other day.

Maybe we can chalk it up to the start of the NHL season.

You know, this conversation has had the biscuit. I mean it. You could spend the day on your chesterfield with an ice cold gripper, but your old lady would give you a gonch-pull, wouldn't she?

I finally just listened to the first installment of the B.Lloyd show. What an awesome job you did Scott. You make us proud.
We couldn't have got a better player than Brandon to do this! He's articulate and knowledgeable, answers the questions with ease; it sounded like you guys really hit it off.
I can't wait for Wednesday's installment. Thanks Scott and Mark.

And, is "hooped" a Canadian term???
Maybe thanks to James Naismith???
