Those off-beat non-sport questions you'd ask athletes...

"When are you happiest?"

In Rick Reilly's new book, Lance Armstrong (if it wasn't him, it was another athlete) wrote about how different Reilly is from other journalists because of the questions he asks. The above question, in particular, stood out in Armstrong's mind.

 

Your favorite fair food?

What was your best Halloween costume?

 

Ribs: wet or dry?

Nike or Adidas?

Playboy or Penthouse?

 

and yet, those are exactly the kind of questions he'd ask a female athlete....

 

I should have used the blue font, but I didn't because I thought it would be obvious to everyone.

 

Male:

"When's the last time you stopped by a school and gave up your free time to spend it with kids and a teacher who is paid zillions less than you, but whose words and actions mean much more than yours ever will?"

Female:

"What has sports taught you and how will you use it after your sports career is over?"

 

For any professional athlete or any politician:

"Would you ever serve in the military if called upon?"

"Is your son or daughter going to serve in the military?"

 

Why can't you ask a female athlete that question?
Are you trying to say Sue Bird doesn't make zillions???

 

The female athletes have likely gone through the entire education process, including all four years of college.

 

Actually, a better question for any athlete, male or female, would be this --

"Did you get your degree? If so, what class did you least like going in, only to like it at the end of it?"

How about asking those high school to NBA guys what they would major in if they would have or will someday go back to college to get the degree.

 

What is the deal... With airplane food?

 

Why are you talking into your cock like it's a microphone?
