    Dear Drew Magary's rescue dog,

    The guy walking you right now is a fucking asshole.

    Sincerely,
    Deadspinners 2.0

    I have to think the new overlords would eat that shit up, especially the second idea.

    Is that a good thing? Is there ever a good reason to root for the vulture capitalists?

    Don't worry. There's no way the venture capitalists will ever think of something that funny and original.

    SJ.com Wise ones: Twitter is not real life.

    Also SJ.com Wise ones: LOL, the revival of Deadspin should begin with a troll aimed at a very tiny Twitter audience, that would own.

    Also not sure why Magary would be a target of the new Deadspin overlords. He was the most visible name they had, but he's also been relatively quiet about what happened.

    I agree. Trolling the original Deadspin wack pack would be a great way to get it off the ground.

    Either you or I completely misread DD's post. One of us definitely did.

    Twitter does not reflect the majority of America.

    It’s absolutely become a part of journalism’s real world - especially on a national level.

    That’s why journalism is so disconnected from the majority of America.

    Context is important.

    In short, it’s a circle jerk

    Looks like Deadspin is back. With people I've never heard of. And all comments turned off.

    Hard pass.
