Reporter to Dave Roberts: "I think all four of your walk-offs have been at home...." pic.twitter.com/vlIIT2biaH

You know, one would think there nothing praiseworthy about not knowing the most basic aspects of the sport which you are paid to cover, but asking a question that's so dumb that it gets cut off by recipient before it even truly begins is quite the time saver. I'm sure Dave Roberts would rather talk to media members that are aware of the fundamental concept that walkoffs are literally impossible on the road, but if he's going to have to deal with painful stupidity then it might as well be so egregiously stupid that he feels comfortable interrupting it prematurely.

Sure, technically it's better to remain silent and be thought a fool than to speak out and remove all doubt, but if your profession actually requires you to remove all doubt then you might as well rip that knowledge bandaid off nice and quick. Plus, if the worst thing a reporter can do is ask a moronic question then the reporter in question has yet to hit rock bottom. That was simply a moronic statement of fact, and it was statistically accurate at that! Just look at the bright side...we might not have the next Buster Olney on our hands, but we've got a guy with a hell of a lot of room for occupational growth!
