> Cassar: “3 Italians and @JustinJBasch
how could it not be a good time??”
I’m waiting for the we-are-just-people posters to say ancestral national origin doesn’t matter, we are just people, period. Because that’s what those posters do, on a colorblind basis, right?
I don't see any "we-are-just-people" posters. Every post from each person looks the same to me. I'm posterblind.> Cassar: “3 Italians and @JustinJBasch

Just when I finally find a good day... I'm now reminded of Lemonpie.Didn’t Cassar say he is Greek previously? Or am I imagining things.
He posted on TheMat hammering Kevin Jackson for the Cox-up at trialsJust when I finally find a good day... I'm now reminded of Lemonpie.
I miss him so damn much...
Well, Jersiterranean.Didn’t Cassar say he is Greek previously? Or am I imagining things.
Which is in the Midwest!Well, Jersiterranean.
Which is in the Midwest!
Just down the Hall ...Which is in the Midwest!
Was this KJ's fault also? Maybe he can hire a couple Cornell lawyers to go brawl with the rules keepers.Here I thought only America had problems at making weight

Higuchi should hire Scaramucci for better rhyming. 🧐 “If the scale don’t fit, he can’t forfeit!” 👍... Maybe he can hire a couple Cornell lawyers ...

I am saying the following with an accent:Cat is coming out of the bag on the world stage, y’all.
Maybe we should call Happy Valley “New Caucasus”
I enjoyed listening to Gilman's perspective and experience, but man Bader is hard to listen to. I don't mind Bader when he's doing PBP of a match, but effective interviewing is not an arrow in his quiver.Nice interview with our Olympian Thomas Gilman on Bader’s show.

you are right and that made we wonder. I like his 'access' but his questions are not that 'smooth'. He will ask the tough question though. Just think he could 'relate' more since he was a div 1 wrestler as well.That’s weird, someone literally said the exact opposite on here recently.
I haven’t watched enough of him in either format.
I think the opposite. I think Bader is unusually good at interviewing in three ways.I enjoyed listening to Gilman's perspective and experience, but man Bader is hard to listen to. I don't mind Bader when he's doing PBP of a match, but effective interviewing is not an arrow in his quiver.
agree with that... he simply could be a little smoother..I think the opposite. I think Bader is unusually good at interviewing in three ways.
First, he listens to answers and follows up. Whenever Gilman says something mysterious, Bader asks a follow up question. An example: Gilman in comparing Tom Brands and Cael said something like “and they’re both winners. (Cael a little more so.)”. Bader asked in what way a little more so. That example is somewhat frivolous, but other examples abound. No other wrestling interviewer listens as well or follows up as well.
Second, as another poster said, Bader “gets out of the way”. He actually shows little personality while interviewing, which I appreciate. He’s not trying to show off with dumb jokes or feigned or unnecessary surprise or “smart” questions that take forever to formulate and express. He just asks quick and substantive questions that elicit great answers. I hate to do it, but the contrast to this is Justin Basch, whom I appreciate and listen to, but who asks long-assed fluffy non-open-ended questions and who does not get his non-wrestler giggly ass “out of the way”. FRL guys are also a contrast to Bader as interviewer, in this dimension.
Edit: The Truewrestling (TW) guy is also an interesting contrast to Bader in the “get out of the way” sense. The TW guy asks great questions, and yet they’re so non-open-ended that when you’ve heard three of his interviews, you realize that every interview sounds the same, and you can’t distinguish one wrestler from another. He asked great questions, but he did not elicit great answers.
Third, I forget what third was for.

Valid and interesting viewpoints for sure. Maybe it's the lack of polish and structure that grates on me. I get the impression that he's winging it every interview. Or that he's just a dude in the office that they threw in the interview room because he's chatty and everyone else was busy.agree with that... he simply could be a little smoother..
