I always liked the exchange between reporter David Lombardi, 49er RB Christian McCaffrey and FB Kyle Jusczyk.
Lombardi (noting the Harvard/Stanford rivalry): "Who are we interviewing right now?"
Juszczyk: "It is wild. You have a Harvard guy and a Stanford guy in the backfield at the same time. I don't know if that's ever happened."
Lombardi: "Is there a little joking around between you two on a regular basis?"
McCaffrey: "Nah, I just have to talk slow sometimes."

A grammar pedant might have something to say about the exchange, which is a tad ironic.

True, although my guess is that grammar pedants don't hang around NFL interviews.
