Lob softballs...

I'm announcing the new Mercer media group at press
conference and I need a friendly reporter
to lob softballs. For backup? Every cub reporter
gets his big break.
Every small reporter gets the

chance to make a name for themselves?
There's no telling where your talents will take you.
The sky is the limit. Meaning there is no limit?
