i read a lot about this last night...all kinds of pretty fascinating stuff coming out of it.

[ice grillin you]

its always fascinating to me how stupid humans are

sending money over the internet to people you dont know always ends well

So basically Nilesh is probably the bigger douche, but Sarah is real and aware of all/most of his dealings in her name. They conned people out of popular Facebook and twitter accounts based on sports humor and made some money. Probably got caught before they made much of anything. Basically exactly why IGY stays away from social media.

And ESPN gets caught again just trying to hire something with a vagina to draw traffic. Whoopsies.

i don't think anyone knows the real story yet...considering there have been about 5 or 6 updates since the story went up 12 hours or so ago...safe to say more will come out.

i'll i got to say is YOU GO GIRL.

and if any of the pictures she uses is actually her, i think she'll do OK in life after this.

Most men do like vaginas.

Speaking of which, hilarious "scandal" today with that CrossingBroad douche posting a TV still of an upskirt of some chick in the stands at last night's Phils/Braves game. Pretty clear where the Philly blogger types fall on the respect scale:

wow

[Don Ho]

Does not someone proof this shtein before it goes out?

[QB Eagles]

It's idiocy to spew racially insensitive stuff about the Nets, but it takes it to the next level to base it off an extreme stretch about the logo. Clearly fishing for any excuse to run his mouth about race.

Also I'm pretty sure the New York N------s name is already taken, in every Boston sports bar every time the Knicks play the Celtics.

I have to vent about Macnow and Gargano's show.  I typically listen to Mikey Miss, but at a certain point on my daily drive I'm out of range of the Fanatic.  So i'll switch to 94.1 which is a much stronger signal.  I used to like these guys together when they were first paired, and when they would randomly put them together for a few shows, but its just insufferable anymore.  Ant's fake laughs....Hah Haa haaa haaa hah haahh.....DIE IN A FIRE.  Every caller offers them mouth love, and its just this sickening love fest.

I like the nets' new logo. The B in the basketball is what I consider fresh. Its got that retro-future look to it.
