Ken Griffey Jr. is no-doubt one of the best players in the history of baseball. He’s also appears to be one of the worst interviews in the history of sports.
ESPN anchor Linda Cohn did an interview with Griffey on SportsCenter this afternoon on behalf of Upper Deck that had all the makings of a fun segment. That was, until Griffey’s face was shown on the screen. The 13-time All-Star was clearly less-than-thrilled to be joining Cohn and gave one-word answers to almost every question asked. The clip, which you can watch below, is extremely awkward to sit through. To her credit, Cohn did about as well as you could ask for given the situation.
After the segment started making the rounds, Cohn let her Twitter followers know how she felt about it. She simply wrote “what a waste”. She later added more.
Cohn is very well-respected in the industry and always tells it like it is, so this comes as no surprise. Perhaps we’re starting to see why we see very little of Ken Griffey these days.
