2. Was investigative journalism like this something you always wanted to do?

3. For Bonnie, When you continue to track and report on one person, such as Lance Armstrong, who lies and is found to have cheated, what do you think of his character?

4. Was there ever a moment where you were sure you had the story, but couldn't nail down the requisite reporting?

5. How difficult was it to deal with USADA?

6. Did the connection between Bosch and Rodriguez come as a surprise, or was it a chicken and the egg type deal?

7. For Bonnie: How long did it take you to report the Boston Marathon piece, and was it something you knew you wanted to do as soon as it happened?

8. What are the challenges of and the techniques used in reporting on a story as sensitive as that one?

9. For T.J.: What was the public reaction to giving up your Hall of Fame vote?

10. For either of you, if you were fans of the sport you were investigating, do you view it differently once you know its dirty secrets?
