Sports Interview

and the critic

Questions you are asked
its better to tell the truth
Hopefully the practice
taught to every youth

 

If questions cause despair
in the way that you feel
Every judgement made
 has a possible repeal

 

Watch for hidden meanings
in the questions they ask
Good interviews have them
its part of the interviewer's task

 

When the interview shows
there is something you haven't done
It gives them  justification for saying
that is why you haven't won

 

Asking pointed questions
is what the critic tries to do
Your answers will tell his listeners
 so much more about you

 

A good plan for you to follow
 is not answering right away
Your pause will bring attention
to whatever you have to say

 

By taking this chance
to defend what you do
It will help other players
play a better game too

 

Playing the game to win
 is the winner's way to play
You will probably want to add
that is why you won today
