Congrats, Mike Chambers!




(For anyone who's a journalism student considering a career covering sports, don't do this. Don't ever do this.)

Oh, that's bad! Victory cigar, to boot.

 

[Sports Barf]

For an NWHL or whatever women's hockey team she covered? Absolutely. I remember her tweeting about crying after a woman won the skating competition at NHL All-Star weekend

 

[Fdufta]

Such a lack of awareness on multiple levels, including tweeting the pictures out. Also a lack of respect for the hardest trophy to win in pro sports.

It's superduper cool, but you can't do it.

Cannot do it.

Jesus.

In my opinion, yes.

As for Marisa, I doubt she would've got buddy-buddy enough with the players to have been invited to the afterparty.

He shoulda just not tweeted it

A few of my journo friends and I are laughing out loud at this... The cigar, the booze-soaked shirt, the absolute look of jubilation in hoisting the cup. Amazing, really. How is the tweet still up? How has an editor not said, "Hey, Mike... take that down, it's going to cause both of us some issues."

 

[Fdufta]

He shoulda just not tweeted it

It's not defensible in any way, shape or form but I could see if he wanted like a memento, frame it, put it on the mantle or something but to just tweet it out to the world? Wild

He shoulda just not tweeted it

At the minimum...
