Let's remember, a reporter, for example from ESPN, cannot just air video of a Fox reporter asking a question.

They have their own broadcast and have to conduct their own interview. It's part of the process and everyone in media, sports and politics knows it.

Think about SuperBowl week and the repition of questions then. It is their job to ask the questions and the job of those in the NFL to make themselves available.

Personally I think Blache was being a douche-bag.

I go by the credo of not trying to screw with another guy when he is just doing his job: whether is cleaning a bathroom or asking the same question you have been asked 50 times.

Blache violated that rule.

It seemed like every time he was talked to, it was always the same questions about that whole ordeal. You can bet if the skins where plain out perfect, the reporters would still find something to try and get someone to harp on. Why? Because people are never happy enough with anything any more. I feel that these reporters keep asking the same questions over and over, is to see if they can get a rise out of who they are asking the questions to. One thing with the media is, if you don't give them something to write about, their going to come up with something of their own to write about.

Blache is the defensive coordinator and the pass rush, or lack thereof, is an issue and all Matich asked was for Blache to talk about the pass rush. What should he have asked him "Coach Blache, can you talk about the kicking situation? Do you think Rayner's strong kickoffs will be enough to unseat Suisham?" "Coach Blache, I'm trying to make a rasberry souffle, but my niece is lactose intolerant. Any suggestions?"

Another shout out for some pisstivity on defense LOL!!!

I don't think the question justified Blache's reaction whatsoever; however I will say the question was sloppy. The pass-rush (or lack thereof) discussion has swirled for years now so simply regurgitating it makes for a lousy interview IMO. Ask something specific: "With Albert taking up 2 or 3 guys in the middle why don't we see the other potential play-makers, like Carter, Orakpo or Daniels getting pressure on the QB?" I think that's a totally fair question, and one that probably needs to be asked. Blache had better get used to fielding this stuff unless/until the D breaks out along the LOS.

I also wondered if Blache is taking heat from the guys who matter i.e. are Vinny and Danny asking him the same questions? If so it would explain his irritation when a reporter asks the same thing...i don't know.

There is the possibility, though it seems very unlikely to me know, Blache is hiding his schemes and we're gonna see hell unleashed come sept 13. Again I doubt it but it would be the coolest thing I've seen all year

Greg Blache didn't graduate from charm school, this much we know. He's a no nonsense kind of maniac. When I'm looking for tactfulness I turn it to CNN. I'm thinking he should coach the offensive line also. The NFC is wide open, and there for the taking. We have the talent, we just need to be fired up. Viva la Greg Blache, and bring on them damn Cowboys, Eagles, and Giants.
