NoHuddleKelly12 Posted May 31, 2019 Posted May 31, 2019 (edited) So I came across this gem in my local media market, transcribing Takkarist McKinley's interview where he literally answers each and every question with the response "good," and it made me wonder what you have as your favorite NFL interviews--funny, bizarre or both. Coaches, owners or players all fair game! https://www.wsbtv.com/sports/falcons-star-answers-every-question-with-good-in-bizarre-interview-video-/954079355 "McKinley didn’t want to fully discuss his offseason when he met briefly with the media Thursday. Here’s how the interview with the local media went: Good afternoon, how are you doing today? “I’m good,” McKinley said. How are things going for you in the middle of the OTAs and so forth? How are you feeling about that? “It’s going good,” McKinley said. What are some of things that you are trying to focus on here in the offseason program? “I’m just trying to be good, get good,” McKinley said. While you’re trying to be good, coach (Dan Quinn) said last week that he has you at some linebacker there, saw you working on some takeoffs today. How are those things coming? How new and different are they for you? “It’s going pretty good,” McKinley said. After McKinley tried to leave, he returned to answer more questions. A couple of years into the NFL now, showing backup for offseason workouts, how does it feel different now versus the past few? “Pretty good,” McKinley said. There were a lot of Falcons fans that were following the news this summer in California who were concerned. What should they know about what you were going through? What’s the message to them? “I’m good,” McKinley said. I don’t know if you heard (about) the support. I just saw a lot of it on social media. What was that like for you, hearing your supporters reaching out? “It was good,” McKinley said." Edited May 31, 2019 by NoHuddleKelly12 1
BuffAlone Posted May 31, 2019 Posted May 31, 2019 Good deal. Wish I had more good things to say about this report. Good thing is, I'm more concerned about the good of the Bills than I am this report. No offense, but good day? 2

I was a bit surprised none of the media asking him not good questions could figure out a way to ask a good question that would force a different response, but hey, that's above my pay grade I suppose.

PetermansRedemption Posted June 1, 2019 Posted June 1, 2019 McKinley has to have a bet with a fellow teammate to answer every question deliberately like that. 1
NoHuddleKelly12 Posted June 1, 2019 Author Posted June 1, 2019 Not NFL specifically, but this must’ve been painful for the production crew: “Mathers, it’s a pleasure to have you open the show...” (at the 1:17 mark)

Someone, please correct his grammar, he meant, "It's going well," "Pretty well" "I'm well," etc., etc. 1
formerlyofCtown Posted June 1, 2019 Posted June 1, 2019 It doesnt get any better than "Im just here so I dont get fined." 1 1
Royale with Cheese Posted June 1, 2019 Posted June 1, 2019 It would have been better if he said “I’m DYNO-mite!”
Blokestradamus Posted June 1, 2019 Posted June 1, 2019 (edited) Takk might be 'good' but he's got a long way to go to be Michael Gambon good.

Not that’s intelligence is the only measure of success in football, but it definitely has some bearing. You need a high school passable intelligence level. This is the reason I was adamantly anti-Lamar. If you are unintelligent it is just one more obstacle to make up.
