That guy went after everyone in that place except for the person who was filming him the whole time. Talk about short-sighted.

I actually saw that tweet on an Instagram meme account first, so I was scrolling. I thought the same thing. Then I saw her comment and chuckled.

Then I realized if I said it aloud or tweeted it myself I'd be harshly criticized. So I'm glad it could be said because it needed to be said. But I would've liked to have said it.

Oh well. I'll just enjoy being paid 100 cents on the dollar.

Sounds like a good Swamp bragging topic: what’s your best Twitter interaction? I got a like from Jim Everett once (and it was not a tweet about him). Bronto doesn’t get to play this game.

Ken Tremendous (Michael Schur) liked my reply to one of his tweets agreeing that fruit pie sucks. This is one of a total of 13 tweets I've ever made.

My best is easily Mike Tanier, formerly South Jersey high school math teacher and contributor at Football Outsiders.

ETA: I've also been blocked by shitbags Jack Posobiec and Dana Loesch. I'm more proud of that, personally.

He's responded to me a couple times, as well. His co-worker, Mike Freeman, followed me after a couple responses to his tweets.

Amin Elhassan has re-tweeted me a couple times, as well (non-#PitinoGame division).

Grant Wahl responded to my tweet when I asked him if he took John McPhee's journalism class at Princeton. He said he took the class but it was taught by David Remnick (editor of The New Yorker) instead of McPhee.

I got a like from the lovely Pam Grier. (Back in the olden days before twitter I was proud that Dr. Z twice fielded my questions in his online column.)

And gotta like this power move:

Did you ask him when he was rejoining the Swamp?

I never post on Twitter, but summer between 8th and 9th grade The Sporting News printed my letter to the editor responding to an article they wrote calling for banning fighting in the NHL. First day of 9th grade, a kid I barely knew came running up to me screaming that he saw my letter in TSN. The following year they published another I wrote, I think it was about rumors of the NHL renaming the divisions. 2 for 2, and I never wrote another letter to the editor to any other publication. Gotta preserve the perfect record.

How about a fresh “Jonah Keri’s career” thread.

First post = “Yep”

All his gigs are on suspension pending the investigation. He’s done.
