Kellis was trying to get a juicy, emotion driven quote. He got it.

except he won't be able to translate the emotion to his shitty doomed paper, because 1) it's a rough ridin' paper, and 2) he's an awful writer.

oh, and Jake was already emotional, so every answer he gave would have had emotion behind it, except a decent question would have gotten an emotional answer that actually answered something people may not have already known.

But no. Instead, we got the Jim Gray "how do you feel?" question to a losing player.
I agree that Kellis is an bad person and print journalism is doomed (sorry Joelcat), but aside from the downright rude wording of the question, a "how do you feel"-type question is fair. Obviously everyone knows how Jake felt, but you still need a quote. I bet the other reporters there were pretty happy they didn't have to be the one to ask the question, but they'll def use the quote.

But yes, his wording was out of line.

A good journalist, especially a good print journalist, won't ask that question because it adds nothing, seriously what the eff do you expect the answer to be? If you must have clarity about how a player who just lost his last college game feels you don't ask "how does/do it/you feel." I learned this in high school.

You're probably right.

Pullen is the rough ridin' man. Going to miss watching him play.

Just hit SportsCenter. To be honest with you, as I listen to it again, Kellis did nothing wrong.

Handsome and accurate. can't fault the dude.

Meek asked the same question to Curt.

If done right when you ask a question like that you give the kid a REAL compliment before asking him do describe how he feels. Kellis didn't do that. Meek really didn't either, though I have no doubts as to Meek's agenda.

Mellinger's wording was perfect, though with a different question.

Meek didn't come off as a tremendous jackass when he asked it though. He asked more about the season and how he felt about the season. KR just basically said, "you played good and still failed. HOW DOES THAT FEEL?"

To me it seemed like he glossed over Jake's great play during the game. That was where he was at fault.

Exactly. He set it up in a way that would make anyone feel like a failure.

Kellis is a rough ridin' uk fan who hates his job covering a superior athletic program in KSU. It isn't hard to dissect this. c'mon you dipsits. He has been anti-EMAW for 2 years.

I've had to do some postgame interviews with my undergrad alma mater's players on radio immediately after some crushing, crushing losses. If I had ever asked a player a question like that, I would've quit my job immediately after the broadcast was done. I don't know if Kellis was consciously or subconsciously trying to rub salt in the wound because of his college background, but I'm gonna have to agree with the mindset that he had some sort of agenda. If you'd let someone from phog.net in with press credentials, they would've asked the exact same question, albeit with a few less "uhs" and "ums." Kellis should quit tomorrow and go see if he can find a job covering a team outside of the realm of his rooting interests.

Somehow this turned into a "Frank has problems" type of deal with media types. Weird.

Kstate should do a media black out on the Wichitard Eagle until that pig rough rider is gone.
