What Would You Ask?

1:  Russell Wilson, Colin Kaepernick, Jameis Winston

2:  When are you 3 going to quit that silly pigskin game and PLAY SOME BASEBALL?

GoHit,

Interesting question.  Dustin Pedroia, Roger Federer, and Monica Seles (former athlete) are three athletes I admire although they are not all active.

1) I'd ask them who are their favorite or most admired athletes/coaches are

2) What sacrifices have you or your family made to get to the top of your profession?

3) Would you do anything differently?

4) What makes you tick? 

5) What do you do with any spare time you have?

LeBron James, Bryce Harper, Mike Trout. 

Who do you see yourself playing for in 5 years time? 

I can't stop at three.  I like competitors with a head for the game and likeable personalities who aren't too cocky and able to stay true to themselves and give back as well... Peyton Manning, RGIII, Andrew McCutcheon.  I like competitors who quietly go about their business and can perform at the highest level while staying true to themselves... Drew Brees, Phil Mickelson, Tim Hudson, Buster Posey, CC Sabathia, Mark Texiera, Joe Mauer, Cliff Lee.  I like guys who do all the above, plus can play more than one sport at the highest level... Russell Wilson (who was picked up today in the Rule 5 MILB draft!).

You can guess what I would ask them... how are you able to stay true to yourself through it all?

Three of my favorite athletes, but nothing too philosophical to ask.

Mike Trout - What are you thinking/hearing as you race around the bases for a triple?

Kelly Slater - What's it like to be deep in a 20' barrel?

Lindsay Vonn - What's it like doing 80 MPH on the Hahnenkamm in Kitzbuehel?

Tom Brady, Dustin Pedroia, Patrice Bergeron

Where did your mental toughness come from?

Why are some players mentally tough while others lack it?

How do you tune out the distractions?
