    Tenacious D The law is of supreme importance, or no importance

    This may be the only time that a Mike Griff (aka "Writer 32" on toos, "Softball Killah" to 8-year old girls) blog gets linked here, but as it's for mockery, here it is:

    Cuonzo Martin not distracted by Bruce Pearl's presence ยป govolsxtra.com Mobile

    For some unknown reason - other than abstract stupidity and a complete absence of any creative ability - Griff asks CCM if Pearl's presence in Knoxville is a distraction.

    CCM's initial take is best, "That's kind of a crazy question." and it slightly devolves, even from that low opening point.

    Enjoy!

    Poor guy doesn't even realize he was blown off.

    No, he didn't. And I'd bet that he doesn't know how ridiculously contrived he appears, or more likely, just doesn't care.

    Even as shitty as the KNS is - and all of the local sports media, for that matter - you'd think that his schtick would warrant some correction, however belated. Unfortunately, the local scene is trending more toward Griff and away from Mike Strange, and his nonsense is mistaken for "hard-hitting" journalism.

    Still carrying water for Pearl. The fact that assclown is still employed is all the proof you need to see what a joke the Knoxville Media is.

    Martin should immediately excommunicate the moron.

    That's almost as bad as Clay's "Are you a virgin" question to Tebow.

    Worse IMO. You at least expect that from Clay Travis, it's his angle.

    Griff at least pretends to be a credible journalist.

    That is true.

    It amazes me he's able to keep a job.

    Griff is outstanding. And by outstanding I mean ridiculously terrible.

    It's amazing what playing a skin flute can do for a person's career.

    Ask Tenny.

    Speaking of "professionalism", I've been meaning to upload this pic of ol'Writer32 for awhile now.

    Here, Griff is covering the Big Orange Tip-Off Banquet. See if you can spot him, I won't spoil the surprise. Not that you'll likely need to, but you can click to enlarge it.

    From his attire, I can only assume that he intended to not only interview Hammy / Coach Martin - but to also challenge them to a game of badminton, immediately thereafter.

    I've narrowed it to the guy in shorts, or to the man on the right with the letter in the mail.

    He's wearing sneakers and shorts, while on the job at a public function... [uck fay]in' hell.


    Btw, that was an atrocious article. Kudos to Martin for not humoring such stupid questioning. And it is hysterical that old Griff doesn't even realize he was being mocked.

    He'll be pumping gas to raise money for the United Way today at the Cedar Bluff Pilot.
