Apparently DK is creating burner Twitter accounts and harassing his old employees
Where are you seeing this? Voy?

There's another account in there that knows a surprising amount of information that only started tweeting when the allegations against DK came out too.
I hope it is him. I enjoy when stuff like this happens to make the day go faster.

Never link your account back to your main one if that's truly the case though. Rookie move.

Yeah following one of your own troll accounts is a rookie move

Something does seem off about that Casey Wolf twitter account. That profile picture looks like some modeling shot that could be found easily online. Did a quick check on Facebook and no accounts come back for a Casey Wolf in Pittsburgh or Boston. Portrays himself to be a young guy but no Facebook account? Possible but doubtful. Would not be surprised at all if it was DK or one of his minions.

There is also this troll account: https://twitter.com/DoesKBHaveAJob

What is wrong with some people?

Sorry John, I can't imagine many people paying $30 a season for emails. Especially about the Pirates.

idk if he gets 400 people to sign up thats an extra 12k of revenue with a fairly high return on investment for basically doing what he was going to be doing.

I don't think the Pittsburgh market is big enough to handle this much subscription saturation. I was fatigued when the Athletic came on board.

turned fan on at 6:43ish, at the tail end of a jim colony update. then it proceeded to commercial. then there was a segment for roughly 6:46 to 6:55. Then there was another commercial. By the time I finished breakfast, it was a bit after 7:00 and I heard a grand total of 9 minutes of actual discussion, the most of which involved debate over when you reach the age where you can beat your dad up

good sports talk imo
They do that garbage in the first hour of their show too? Man that is awful. I just thought they did it in the last hour to fill time.

In general I like Perrotto but if I wanted an email dodinting about the Pirates and their keep ownership I would copy all my posts from the Pirates thread and send them to myself (and to others at the super low price of $19.99).

The Twitter handle on the Casey Wolf account is "mfeltonpsu32". It's, at the very least, fake.

Pittsburgh Hockey Now is the fastest-growing hockey outlet in Pittsburgh. We are the rebels, the outsiders, the hockey site not confined by century-old limitations. We offer an informed perspective for hockey fans seeking hard-hitting content from professionals who have covered and lived inside the game.
Calling yourself a rebel or an outsider is so embarrassingly lame.

isn't Patreon basically a GoFundMe for musical artists or youtube personalities content creators?

Yes. You can set up monthly payments to "creators" whose work you enjoy and in turn the "creators" usually offer some kind of benefit. In this case...
Beginning February 26th, for $3 per month, you'll get early access to:
--Penguins Film Study (Dan Kingerski's X's and O's video breakdown)
--Matt-Alytics (Matt Gajtka's statistical features)
--Player features from Shelly Anderson
--Invites to Pittsburgh Hockey Now hangouts and roundtable discussions
