Everyone remembers when Awesome Emma straight up owned it and interviewed a eleventyfive hundred celebrities at last year's Hamels Foundation Diamonds and Denim event. Guess what? She did it again this year! And, trust me, every single moment in this video is A-M-A-Z-I-N-G.
"zOMFG YES PLEASE ZWR I so need this it's Monday and I hate my job thank you thank you thank you this rules"

Major thanks to: Emma for being one of the best things about this site and always making me smile, G-N Kang and The Hamels Foundation for the invite, Emma's darling mom BREEZY for giving her permission, and this donkey for being the best film/audio/editing dork I know (no but for serious without him these don't happen). These make me smile, I hope they do the same for you.
Awesome Emma is the best! This is precious.
ReplyDeleteThis made me so happy. Thanks Awesome E and ZWR <3
ReplyDeleteThat intro music ... yes, please.
ReplyDeleteYep, totally needed this. Her full name should be Amazing Wonderful Super-Awesome Emma.
ReplyDeleteTruly the most knowledgeable sports interviews I have seen in a great while.
ReplyDeleteConcur
DeletePfft. Like Awesome Emma isn't Miss Philadelphia now and forever.
ReplyDeleteIs Awesome Emma's mom single?
ReplyDeleteOnly thing missing is the ZWR microphone! So needed this right now.
ReplyDeleteBen Revere didn't have to squat down!
ReplyDeletePap comes off looking like a jerk, and Adams seemed like he was strait up getting interviewed by Bob Costas! Emma nails it!
ReplyDeleteYou have her locked into a contract, Zoo? ESPN is gunna be at her door within the year!
ReplyDeleteSo who is Emma related to that she got this gig? For real.
ReplyDeletePapelbon looks like a total tool. because he is one.
ReplyDeleteMeg, she's just awesome - http://www.zoowithroy.com/2011/11/major-announcement-first-annual-zwr.html.
ReplyDeleteBecause she dressed up like Buddy the Elf? (Shrugs)
ReplyDeleteHow fortunate ZWR was to have picked a little girl who had natural charisma.
Nevermind! I read her Guest Post from when she won the contest (Not sure how I never read that before) and I totally get it now! She IS awesome! More kids should be like her rather than the wild donkeys we all see running loose these days.
ReplyDeleteAwesome Emma is the bomb. Hamels also is the bomb for inviting her and for getting through an interview without a single "you know."
