Following Cam Newton's latest interview on the Greg Hill Show, producer Chris Curtis made a bold proclamation.
"This may seem crazy but I think he may be the best interview in the history of Boston sports," Curtis said.
So if that was the case, who would be Curtis' next four? He offered up his list:
1. Cam Newton: Honest, amicable, forthcoming and sincere. The most relatable superstar I have ever heard in Boston.
2. Terry Francona: Authentic, loved discussing baseball minutiae when we used to breakdown regular season baseball on a daily basis. The interviews from 2004-2007 when baseball was king were always great.
3. John Henry: It only happened once and it was across the street but the 90 minutes of candid Henry were among the most gripping in Boston radio history. The team would be smart to provide the fans that honesty more often. Just on EEI next time.
4. Alex Guerrero: The most mysterious figure in the history of Boston sports was only heard once during Christian Fauria's 25 for 25k radiothon last year. Guerrero provided a peak behind TB 12's curtain and discussed his relationship with Tom and coach Belichick.
5. Larry Lucchino: Loved to fight, didn't care about being the bad guy for ownership. The Red Sox sorely miss his brash, up front demeanor.
