Jeremy:
Miss Whitaker, I would be great at this job. You gotta believe me when I tell you I've been training my whole life for it. I've crunched stats; I've broken down film; and there wasn't a team in my high school that didn't have me for an equipment manager. I have read every box score in every newspaper that's printed in English and has a sports section, and I have seen Sports Night every night since you're first broadcast; two years, two months and a week ago today. Now, yes, sure, indeed. I can tell you what Ewing and Oakley are shooting from the field, and that you're not going to stop John Starks if he squares up to the basket. Put any defensive pressure on Charlie Ward and he's gonna fold like a cheap card table. But if you're asking me for genuinely sophisticated analysis ... And I sense that you are! You've gotta give me some time. At least twenty minutes.
