Do you like Darren Rovel?

I love that he exists.

Yeah, that's a pretty good way to put it, I guess.

Yeah, I mean, that's what Darren Roavelle is. He's the, so he's the sports business reporter for ESPN, but he's also the most hated person on Twitter, without a doubt. Or one of them. He's got to be number one. I know that a lot of people tweet things like, well, thanks a lot, Obama. But I think that pound for pound, there's more direct hate is sent right Darren Rovell's way. So we're going to interview him today because we'd love to get to the bottom of that. Yeah, I think, you know, the interview is pretty much going to be primarily about Twitter and, you know, the stuff that he gets on Twitter. I, so when I set up the thing with him, I didn't say anything about we want to talk about sports business. We want to talk about the flak that you get on Twitter, whether or not it's deserved. I dropped your name. He brought to my attention. I did not know this. He said, well, as you know, I've blocked Pete Blackburn on Twitter. He was like, obviously, I've blocked Pete Blackburn. Like you're this bad guy. Obviously I've blocked this guy who wouldn't block this guy.

He's the one. Pete Blackburn on Twitter. He was like, obviously, I've blocked Pete Blackburn. Like, you're this bad guy.

Obviously, I've blocked this guy.

Who wouldn't block this guy?

He's the worst.

And he's not wrong.

So I asked you what you did, and you made the 40-year-old virgin movie poster with

Darren Rovel's face on it.

Yes.

So I guess we should get into a little backstory on why everybody hates Darren Rovel's face on it. Yes. So I guess we should get into a little backstory on why everybody hates Darren Rovel, which

I'm sure if you're listening, you know the deal with Darren Robelle, because Darren

Navelle is a must follow on Twitter because he tweets things.

A lot of times they're just really geeky, or a lot of times it's not good timing.

Tone deaf is often said to describe him. The best example probably is that as soon as Paul

George got injured a couple years ago, he comes right out with saying how much money his team

saves on the salary cap by him being injured. And so people just like to respond and give him shit. I think that it's become more of a game than anything where it's not just that he tweets something and people say, oh, I don't like that he tweeted that. I'm going to call him an asshole or I'm going to tell him to delete his account. I think it's people are fucking waiting at their

computers for Darren Oval to send a tweet and no matter what it is, they respond. Delete your account because he's kind of the chosen one that everybody hates. Yeah, that's kind of the way Twitter is. It's the mob mentality. You pick out a guy that you want to hate on and everybody jumps on it and becomes a popular thing to do. but at the same time, he's such a weenie.

So that's the thing.
