In case you’re wondering, Bobby Sylvester is a now ex-Fantasy Pros fantasy football content contributor who, evidently, has had trouble communicating with the opposite sex.

Curiously, one may wonder what happened prior to his statement and you can’t help but provide yourself the well-rounded Tarentino timeline of delivery.

…on a not-so-distant February 24th, 2020…

And finally, back to August 7th

In lieu of the harassment of the female involved, Sylvester was relieved of his duties at Fantasy Pros.

I’m not ever a person to relish in an individual’s downfall or shortcomings, nor will I begin to here. However, something easily stated to live by (and apparently not as simple to enact upon): don’t be a creepy, misogynous tool and I think you’ll get by just fine.

Tommy G’s Return To Twitter Was A Brief One

Known racist jackass and ex-San Francisco Giant Aubrey Huff recently made an announcement on his Twitter machine, much to the delight of his cultic base of QAnon loyalists:

Besides the questionable scope of his broad use of the term “patriot”, Aubrey Huff’s Tweet contained another unfortunate event upon discovery:

I was thoroughly looking forward to the continued war waged on the Dark Side, and to have to settle for the Star Wars saga over again is a real drag (although, there is an element of realism when considering you’re replacing one group of pretend rebels with another).

And our very own Nolan Kelly had his say as well:

Well if that won’t ruin your day. Carry on.

With Real Sports Back, eSports DFS Losing Momentum

While I maintain wishful thinking that the lull in League of Legends DraftKings tournament sizes is only due to the end of the Summer splits, there’s been more than a hint of things taking a step backward with payout structures diminishing in the past couple of weeks.

Counter-Strike: GO, once a daily weekday affair that had slates starting around the clock, is practically non-existent, and especially with the real sport parallel in NBA making its grand return.

With League Of Legends Worlds kicking off on September 25th, and Summer playoffs to be taken care of first, there’s hope still reserved (although difficult considering NFL will be back).

 

Even Adam Got A Kick Out Of The Sylvester Situation

Awesemo’s own  Adam “ShipMyMoney” Scherer found some humor in the Bobby Sylvester comedy-drama, and by means of one hysterical retweet.

Oh, and this:
