Hey guys. I had the opportunity to interview Randy Moss in a rare conversation discussing his business involvement with a smoothie company Inta Juice, preparing for life after the NFL, why the Oakland Raiders haven't been that good, his legal troubles, his charity work, when he used marijuana during his NFL career, and so much more in a revealing interview with an NFL star.
You can read and listen to the interview at the link below
Nice job man, that's a big jump from your previous interviews with the Wes Welkers of the league. Hopefully it will open up more opportunities for ya. Nice to see you asking the tough questions too.
I have interviewed other big names, but this wasn't arranged through an NFL team. It was arranged through the business company. Certian NFL teams don't think I am big enough to talk to the name stars on every team most of the time. I am getting bigger, but it does take time to earn a relationship with an NFL team and they also have to make sure the local media gets their stuff. The interview will be featured on national radio next week also.
Hope you get more chances with more players. I think it's important for fans to see that these players are a lot more complex than what the mainstream media likes to show. Unfortunately, some of them are a lot LESS complex as well, but seeing them from a different perspective changes my perspective and ultimately adjusts my perception of pro athletes enough to respect them more as People.

Lesson learned from the Bengals & Clippers: It can always get worse, but it will get better.
Randy is no idiot. He went through his troubles earlier in life, but he seems to rise above it. His responces were longer than a good percentage of my past many NFL interviews.
There are idiots and smart people in every field. I try to show people who these guys really are through my many interviews. Go back into my archive on my site and read and you will see for yourself.
I might have a huge fan base of support and people who look up to me, but no matter where I go I shall always remember it's about the interview subject and not me. People go to my site to read what the talent has to say.
That interview is only as good as the interviewer sure, and I have a different style, but I stay humble and try to learn as much as I can.
