oh it was from his facebook, just googled - am surprised deadspin doesn't have a post on this i just looked, don't they have a quota for this stuff? magary and marchman slacking on the schadenfreude tip
― slothroprhymes, Tuesday, 9 June 2015 02:37 (eight years ago) link
not sure if a facebook post, being a place where one does tend to put stuff like that, really qualifies as spamming one's contacts in the traditionally irritating way but hey what do i know

the point i think more is that hes an all in soccer dad

In February, we made the Final 4 of the State Cup (Flight 2) thanks to our phenomenal coach (Jacob Tudela).

Oh for fuck's sake, will somebody hire him already? The fucking NBA Finals are going on and these Zach Lowe articles and podcasts are not cutting it.

he is bad its true
― lag∞n, Friday, 12 June 2015 21:13 (eight years ago) link
i think the deadspin may have compounded it some but more just brought to light some of the reasons why it was a fiasco
― balls, Friday, 12 June 2015 23:46 (eight years ago) link
seems ~awkward~ that he's staying on as a writer
he's more of a loose cannon than simmons ever was, more clearly a nightmare to work with, and would seem to offer less . . . upside
― mookieproof, Saturday, 13 June 2015 00:13 (eight years ago) link
yeah wldnt be surprised to see him bought out of his contract in the near future
― lag∞n, Saturday, 13 June 2015 01:27 (eight years ago) link
The fact that people at ESPN thought Whitlock running this thing was a good idea in the first place suggests to me that even if it does get off the ground, it will be a hateful pile of shit.
