bflo83 Posted July 21, 2005 Share Posted July 21, 2005 If anyone's interested, Rich Eisen and Rod Woodson interviewed Travis on Titan's cam today. One word: painful. And before I trash him let me say that while he was a Bill I had a lot of respect for Travis as a player - any guy who plays running back with a leg fracture deserves the monikor of warrior. That being said, it was painful to watch Travis (not the world's most eloquent man to begin with) field Woodson and Eisen's questions. There was an "um" in every sentence and he had trouble with Rich "King of the Softball Question" Eisen's inquiry as to how sharing time with Chris Brown in Tennessee is going to be different from sharing time with Willis in Buffalo. After the second or third attempt he finally said something to the extent that in Buffalo he wasn't sharing time with Willis anymore. Anyhow, it's on about 35 minutes into today's Total Access show for anyone who's interested. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One unbelievably stupid Woodson question was "Do you think you're the kind of running back who fits better in a backfield with a veteran quarterback or a rookie?"

I wish they would just open up the NFL Films vaults and replay old games instead of showing NFL Access ten times a day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fake-Fat Sunny Posted July 21, 2005 Share Posted July 21, 2005 The thing I was most interested in hearing from your desciption of the interview was whether he took the opportunity to trash the Bills (as Phat Pat has done since negotiations did not go his way and he flew the coop to MN) or whether he is taking a higher road and either praising the the fans who rooted for him, or is simply leavingthe past behind. I take it that it was painful to watch because no one mistakes Henry for a great orator rather than it was painful because he spoke out aginst the team or the region since there are no specifics cited a long those lines.

He didn't trash the Bills in the interview (but then he's kind of been doing that for the last couple of months so I guess he got it out of his system already) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've been toying with the idea of doing videography and video editing professionally; one day I may, but the pay wouldn't be anywhere near as good as I get now, so I'll wait for my field to be moved to India first.

Showing it for free or just relying on commercial programming just won't cut it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dawgg Posted July 21, 2005 Share Posted July 21, 2005 Whatever. Willis is almost as dumb. Have you heard his interviews? We're splitting hairs here. If anyone's interested, Rich Eisen and Rod Woodson interviewed Travis on Titan's cam today. One word: painful. And before I trash him let me say that while he was a Bill I had a lot of respect for Travis as a player - any guy who plays running back with a leg fracture deserves the monikor of warrior.
