the nba memes kid was just a kid and got fucked. i feel bad for him.

it truly was a great article. And how Faux John Madden and Happy Gilmore novelty accounts got thrown under the bus. Should be interesting to see any follow up to this

also this tweet from her tonight is so full of shit
Sarah Phillips ‏ @SarahPhilli

Today was a good day. I was able to evaluate everything and move away from sports media. You live and learn. I'm just a fan now.

That Deadspin article was fantastic. That is some legit investigative reporting. I always had a feeling that chick was shady.

[Drew Beringer]

apparently she's the mind behind that dumb Willy Wonka account? http://deadspin.com/5906849/sarah-ph...h-who-to-trust

haha, this is just getting started.

[Eich696]

thats insane haha. that wonka account sucks.

[Broken Parachute]

Just keeps getting better.

Do the main music festivals usually end up coming out with more single day passes once they all sell out or am I making that up? I'm trying to go to Lolla and will finally have the money to get tickets after I get paid tomorrow but I wanted to get Saturday and Sunday and just saw Saturday was sold out. Am I stuck paying more with stubhub or whatever?

[JuneJuly]

Soooo, what does FauxJohnMadden have to do with this story? lol

[bigmike]

I like how Deadspin is suddenly the pinnacle of journalistic integrity. Like that Jenn Sterger stuff didn't happen without her really consenting it at first.

[S/T]

So did they change that page linking on the NBA Memes site since this article came out? I don't see any of that stuff.

[rcrook]

i almost feel like it was a ghostwriter doing all of this and using her face

coachella was 3 day passes only and even with it being hell trying to get passes when they went on sale there were so many that opened up 2 weeks before the festival. i had a ton of facebook friends and people on twitter offering up passes at face. i'd recommend that and if nothing opens up just use stub hub as a last resort. they actually end up going down in price the last day or two before the date.

yeah with that second coachella date, coachella passes got super cheap right around that Friday. Could've copped one for 200.

the Sarah Phillips thing is getting even more fascinating. The link I posted above has been updated twice and I guess she was purchasing faux twitter accounts? lol so weird
