Let me set the stage a little bit.
Let’s say that the following conditions existed:
He trusts you like a brother or best friend so he won’t go PR or PC on you. You know that he will give you an honest answer.
No one else can overhear. Certainly no reporters, coaches, or players.
He knows that you won’t go blabbing to anyone so he feels free to be candid.
It’s in a relaxed atmosphere such as 2 friends enjoying a beer with no work pressure.
The question must be football related (his girl friend is off limits, for example, lol).
Sooooo...
What would you most really want to know now that you have this hypothetical golden 15-30 minutes with Sean?
I think I might ask him about his TE situation. What does he REALLY think about Everett’s prospects this year? Can Higbee become a sufficient (and consistent) threat? And what about Hemingway? Were you exaggerating about your plans for him, or was that coachspeak? Is Hemingway a legit potential starter type, IOW?
If I could squeeze in another question it might be about his true feelings regarding Watkins. Why did Watkins fall short of everybody’s expectations? Did his concussion “change” him? Did he have an unexpected learning difficulty? What was the real reason that Watkins wasn’t extended? Were the Rams having 2nd thoughts or was Sammy just uninterested in being one of the spread-it-around 5 targets?
If I was still on a roll, I might ask him if he thought Big Whit would be good for 2 more years. Or even this one? A lot is riding on the answers to those 2 questions.
Well, now it’s your turn. What question would you ask if given this golden opportunity? Have some fun with it.
