Fake Interviews With Real Athletes: Richard Sherman
Here at Korked Bats, we like to think of ourselves as sports journalists. And by sports journalists, I mean just a couple of folks with the domain rights to KorkedBats.com who can’t land big interviews for your reading pleasure.
So instead, we make up big interviews for your reading pleasure.
Recently, we had a chance to sit down (kinda) with Seattle Seahawks cornerback Richard Sherman (not really) to talk about his team’s big NFC Championship Win. It was an exclusive one on one with the superstar. Here is that interview.
(RS will represent Richard Sherman and KB will represent Korked Bats)
Korked Bats: Thank you for taking the time to join us, Richard.
