Makes sense that a guy named Scoops Callahan would talk in circles while asking a totally incoherent question. The Roaring Twenties probably did a number on a lot of folks. With
Caitlin Clark continuing to lap Angel Reese for Rookie of the Year and lifting the Indiana Fever over. 500 on Sunday in yet another excellent winning performance, Scoops couldn't help but get in on the action. He had to know what challenges Clark anticipated going to Dallas right after her Fever squad dismantled Reese's Chicago Sky on Friday night to improve to 3-1 head-to-head. How Scoops articulated that inquiry was most extraordinary, and is transcribed in the tweet below for your convenience: https://twitter.com/GrantAfseth/status/1830375649409941708 I had to piggyback off the digging of somebody else in order to dig up some of my own information on just who the hell Scoops Callahan is. Main points are, he's a parody 1920s era reporter who uses that decade's colloquial, quirky lexicon whenever he pops up to interview superstar athletes. Scoops even makes obscure historical references and analogies to further throw his unsuspecting interview subjects off their game. Some fun-hating Fever PR person appears to have removed Scoops from the press area right away. Clark's reaction is priceless, and very relatable, as I too would be all worlds of confused. Question marks all over the place. https://twitter.com/brilewerke/status/1830381262571270236 https://twitter.com/Skratch/status/1131578164851937280 https://twitter.com/r0bato/status/1830378017341968454 https://twitter.com/Nate_Rgrs/status/1830384806909325684 I really don't know how Scoops slithers his way in. Maybe it worked here because it wasn't until this season that Clark single-handedly made the WNBA relevant. That's a reality that Hall of Famer Nancy Lieberman acknowledged and lauded Clark for during the Fever's 100-93 victory. https://twitter.com/IndianaFever/status/1830363393997348953 If you're into Scoops' sort of thing, I've featured a compilation video of some of his questions below. His targets include Bill Belichick, Tom Brady, and Eli Manning among others. Definitely worth checking out if this humor is your sort of speed. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wzPuK0iMueo Furthermore, Rian Johnson's breakout feature film debut
Brick uses quite a lot of this Roaring Twenties-ish vernacular. That's a fun one to watch as well if you're into this kind of vibe. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d9xjSoIyE-4
