Everton needs to have a discussion with this guy ASAP. I want to see him in the Premier League. If he was coaching ManU, I would seriously have to consider switching allegiance. He is THAT good!

Dissent. He's being a jerk. Part of coaching is answering questions from the media. The question wasn't a "gotcha" or aggressive type of Q. He was asked, "What are your thoughts ahead of the weekend game?" To give a nonsense answer to that is just being rude to the media.

Somewhere down the line when this coach is struggling he will probably get ripped apart by the local media. If he wonders why they treat him so poorly, he can look back on this interview.

Or he could have just been having a bit of fun, a moment of levity to brighten up a mundane day.

They’re a small-town club, currently lower-mid table in the fifth division. He probably knows the reporter and will grab a pint with him after the match.

I didn’t see it as rude. He could have given the typical coach-speak, but instead he gave an answer that made me look up his team. Good pub.

ETA: looking him up, he played at Aldershot Town for a bit so he may also know the reporter from his playing days.

Reminds me of a biz talk I went to recently:

Only those stuck in the 90s still go for 21st Century modular projections. It's time that we became uber-efficient with our balanced administrative contingencies and start to cascade memos about our homogenised third-generation resources. The solution can only be remote transitional flexibility, and so, as of today, we're going forward with our plans to implement total incremental paradigm shifts. If you have questions, I suggest you review your notes, or I can make a window to discuss your responsive asset projections.

You’re welcome.

I think I found the website where you can get a more concise explanation.

Holy cow that’s both incredibly ingenious and frighteningly big brotherish

An interesting bit of tape:

I was shocked that her buddy/partner on the air had no reaction at all to this incident, but it was mentioned down thread that he had no visual to what was happening.

Yes, but given she kept saying, "I just got hit by a car!" you would think he would react a bit more. Kind of like that stiff guy on Murphy Brown. Or Ted Baxter.

Here is the cameraman's dilemma, that pop's up in many situations. Do I keep filming the incident? Or do I try to help the person in distress?
In this case, the cameraman kept filming, but did not do a very good job; didn't get the license plate, or his partner flailing on the ground.
Maybe he abandoned the camera to help her up.

Comments suggested that she was doing a MMR - multimedia remote, where she is by herself handling camera, sound and on air duties simultaneously. Apparently news stations do this to save money but it’s not safe for reporters - as seen here.

As far as her partner at the desk he could have gone more with “Oh lord! Are you all right” rather than the “Which body part took the brunt” approach.

Did not have to get the plate # - the driver stopped and the reporter was consoling HER b/c she was freaking out after hitting her.

The reporter was interviewed on NBC today. The money quote, after the reporter was done consoling the "poor" driver who was mortified, was "I hope her car was OK."
