    It's really him. It's got the "verified" checkmark.

    Only would have been made better with additional references to lattes, softball and yogurt raisins.

    Well, fuck you too, shit for brains.

    His "take" may eventually prove to have been accurate, but that's not the point. What Peter King did wrong was act like a jackass and personally attack someone on a public forum for no good reason.

    Kind of like what you just did. But hey, I'm just a dumbass Saints fan so I guess I must have deserved it. Pfft.

    I'll give you $50 if you get LTL to nuke.

    I am not sure what exactly this means, but I'm pretty sure it isn't going to happen.

    He didn't personally attack anyone. He pointed out that Jonathan Vilma won't be playing for the Saints anytime soon, a notion that Vilma didn't seem to appreciate.

    He made it personal. I think that's obvious.

    So you think PK's twitter post was fully appropriate, given his standing and the subject matter?

    C'mon, I didn't go to some fancy journalism school, but even I (a purported "dumbass") know better than that.

    He said "Get the message, Jonathan Vilma?" There is nothing wrong with that.

    If you don't see why this is tacky and unprofessional behavior, I don't exactly know how I can explain it to you.

    That's just as well, as I am not likely to put much stock in a homer's explanation anyway.

    LOL. Why does me being a Saints fan have anything to do with it? I'm insulted by PK as a journalist, not as a Saints fan.

    But you keep on fighting that good fight. Lord knows the "dumbass" Saints fans deserve all they get. ::) Talk about a mob mentality.

    And there's the rub. Thanks for ending it on a good note.
