"I mean I understand what you're saying - at some point in time you're ahead. And when you're ahead, that's a good thing. And you know what, it's never practice. I always like being ahead, and being ahead by a lot is not to be demeaned. And being ahead is what we try to do."

"And you only hope that this is a question that is just a simple question, and never would you like to come in on a Monday and say, 'Boy, how about that question I asked?'" Miles said, then raised his voice considerably. "Because then EVERYONE would know that it was a DUMBER question the SECOND time you mentioned it!"

This is how unnamed "young reporters" learn their job. The coach gives you a chance to ask a question, even though you've paid no dues and don't seem to know a whole lot. Then you ask a naive question, suggest his team's good work amounts to "practice on TV", taking a thinly veiled shot at the coach's game management . . . at his own press conference.

Miles should have just ignored him. He'll certainly be ignored for the rest of the season.

There ain't a coach in the league who who'll let a reporter get away with trying to embarass him in front of his home media. Nick Saban or Bill Arnsparger would bite the head off a artless reporter who showed them no respect.

I wonder if that "young reporter" was our very own cgisclair? :hihi: :hihi:

"And if you ever got to sit in these shorts or in these shoes, you'd not buy it either"

:thumb: We'll get 'em next time, slugger. I think an approach somewhere between Saban's and Miles' would be ideal.

yeah... it wasn't me... I know who it was, but it wasn't me... I wasn't there on that day

And Miles misinterpreted her question completely, FYI...

The woman was doing a story, and her question: "At what point does it turn into practice on tv?" was meant to ask: "At what point in a game do you stop doing the normal routines and giving information to other opponents, and start to experiment with new little tricks."

It was a very poorly worded question, and she deserved to get her head bitten off, but she meant no ill will, I promise
