Interviews with Professional Athletes

I was listening to NPR (National Public Radio), and they had an interview with a male professional tennis player. I have no idea who the fuck he was, because it doesn't really matter. Anyhoo, they asked him what his strategy would be for his semi-final match, and this is what he said:

"I need to go after my opponent and play well".

WTF?

Does this guy have an IQ of 48? "I need to go after my opponent and play well"? As opposed to what? I need to get away from my opponent and play badly? Is this what large amounts of money does to the human brain, or are "jocks" about as bright as their straps?

Please. Please you asshole athletes. If you don't have anything interesting to say, refuse to do interviews. I would find that more interesting, not to mention commendable.
