Around SBN: Two Minutes Of Thunder Basketball Wins The Game

I hope you all read this and appreciate the staff at CFC a little more. There are so many errors and downright ignorant things said in this blog post that it makes my head hurt. Yes, I know it's satire (sort of like Yahoo's Dirty Tackle), but geeze.

EDIT: The management doesn't share the views of its butthurt editorial staff

Does purposefully making factual errors count as satire?
That was just absolute shit.
Not even funny.

Yes, it's crap. But.

Regarding Adebayor: “His nickname should be Mission Impossible because he self-destructs wherever he goes.”

That’s a great line.

What's funniest to me

Are the legions of (poorly spelled) comments from Spurs fans who totally don’t get it.

TROLOLOLOLOL, etc.

I think it was an obvious attempt at trolling satire

If you read it with a Jim Rome voice, you see the trolling attempt.

Tottenham Hotspurs, Penn State, and Winthrop are the only things that made me cry in my adult life.

I do like the use of "disintegrate" instead of "denigrate," though.

“I don’t mean to disintegrate [sic] Spurs in any way, there’s nothing wrong with being a team that wins the occasional cup and can’t ever win the league.”

Oh, and “the outstanding Russian, Pavlyucheckov.”

Caterham7, your comment was deleted

Not funny, not in good taste. That is not an okay thing to joke about.

The one poorly worded comment about not coming back until his avatar looked like a (derogatory homosexual reference)

And his response- absolutely classic. This Gray-Hodson guy has, intentionally or not, a great flair for the comedic

Yeah, I liked that

Yeah, I'm with Ashlock on this.

Just because someone claims to have written something satirical doesn’t actually make it good. This is more confused than clever.
