Cedric Wilkins II, fresh from practice with his Prospect Bowl squad, the Isle Royale Celly Moose, strides confidently into a room filled with beat reporters assigned to cover the event prior to the DSFL Draft, and takes a seat in front of a microphone at the head of the room. He leans into the microphone, sliding his sunglasses and smiling at the front row of reporters, before beginning, "A'ight, let's get this thing going, I want to field as many questions as possible before they bounce me. Who's first?"
Quote:@"RenoJacksonHS""Well, first things first, I deny those allegations. No truth to 'em, I promise you that. But, also, I feel it should be said that if we're talkin' 'bout my bread, my bread is my business, not yours."
How do you address the allegations that you lick bread and then put it back into the package?
Quote:@"RenoJacksonHS""Okay, I'm not as familiar with Jason as I am with Tess, but...I mean, just look at 'em. Jason ain't got that extra somethin' Tess got. If you know you know."
Why is Jason Garciaparra the lesser Garciaparra?
Quote:@"RenoJacksonHS""I'll have you know I ain't afraid of...wait, you said Tree? She watchin' now? Uh...I have no comment at this time."
Now that she is retired and probably won't hunt you down for answering, did you feel hurt by Tree's drunken rejection of you in expansion drafts? Or are you still afraid to answer that due to fears she's watching us right now?
Quote:@TheRocheLimit"Plenty of people have said that I lack technical knowledge of the game, and they might be right, but at the end of the day, that stuff can be taught. What I bring to the table is raw speed, raw agility, things you can't teach a player, and I intend to prove their value while I learn to play my position better and better."
What do you bring to the table? Why should a team pick you over all of these other prospects?
Quote:@TheRocheLimit"I'll tell you what, I'm doing everything I do now, better. I've always been a return specialist, and I intend to keep doing that, but I know there's got to be more to my game, so I'm working every day to be a better, faster, stronger defensive back. I want to be this league's utility player, and I'm going to bust my ass to make it happen."
In five seasons, what does your career look like?
Quote:@TheRocheLimit"Not sure who would have told you that, but it ain't true. I'm willing to talk to anybody who has concerns about me playing for 'em."
We've heard rumors that there is one team you just won't play for. Is that true?
Quote:@TheRocheLimit"It ain't fuckin' look like a sandwich."
Is a hot dog a sandwich?
Quote:@Void_DCXI"Ridiculous suggestion. Milk first, every time."
What are your thoughts on the allegations that you eat cereal without milk?
Quote:@Void_DCXI"Fuck if I know. This is a no fly zone, buddy."
What’s the deal with airplane food?
Quote:@Void_DCXI"Like I said, I'm a raw talent, but I've got speed, I've got strength, I've got agility, and you ain't teachin' that shit. I can learn the skills I'm missing; most people can't."
What separates you from other cornerbacks?
Quote:@zaynzkWilkins rises to his feet and stares through the reporter until he exits the room.
Why u smell?
Quote:@overdoo"I like having peanuts on the sidelines, something I remember from going to games with my Pop. But I ain't been raised to leave no mess, so I eat the whole thing. Shell and all."
What is a really weird habit you have?
Quote:@overdoo"I think most people have a pregame ritual, so maybe this ain't so weird, but what I do pregame, I talk to Pop. I figure, God got better shit to worry about than my game, but Pop, he's watchin', you know?"
What is a just barely weird habit you have?
Quote:@overdoo"We ain't have much money when I was young, but every once in a while, we'd stop by Roul's Deli. Great place to grab a cheap bite."
What was the best restaurant from where you grew up?
