What's the background on the 'gay pornography expert,' though?

Ace gets it.

Holy shit - that's the same dude who started the gay porn wars of aught-three! Or whatever the fuck year it was. Holy shit!

To be fair, I didn't participate in that business. It just happened to start because of a (stupid) disagreement (which was my fault) about Nomar Garciaparra (about which I was wrong). Other people went a little overboard.

So in the Sbox we just now (god, what the hell) remembered this and that Brett Taylor posted a bunch of gay porn on this here message board during the Great CubsTalk War.

Holy shit

That sure was a lot of words to say Ricketts = businessman. Tell me more about this Great CubsTalk War, please.


It was a lot of fighting about which Cubs site was better. It was weird. In retaliation, some people from CubsTalk started posting tranny porn on the board here and, I believe, TJ Brown had to call Andy at work to remove it. And we were all like, "You have Andy Dolan's phone number?!"

Great days in Desipio History.

ETA: I think I was still in college at that point. Holy crap.

It's about time you guys come around on how annoying I think he is.  And there's nothing I like more than a good bashing of social media/PR/"branding" drones.  What's the background on the 'gay pornography expert,' though?  If I ever knew, I've forgotten.

I was just kidding with the name. I mean the incident is real but Brett's a good guy and his site is as thorough as it gets.

Slaky's basically right. The guy has the most useful Cubs blog out there and I appreciate having a good place to go for info. As mentioned, he's a shameless self-promoter on Twitter and that's annoying, so I'll give you that. Only loosely related, he's also followed/unfollowed me on Twitter no less than seven times which I can't really blame him for (the unfollowing, that is). The behavior is a bit weird though.

I concede he covers almost everything, but I just find his writing style, voice, tone, whatever you want to call it, annoying.  Things like this are annoying too, I guess, but I just don't like reading him.  Still though, he's unquestionably streets ahead of Yellon, so, you know, at least he's offering a cup of ice water to people in hell and stuff.

Brett Taylor is a juicy peach who's just as sexy as Dita Von Teese. Try to keep up.
