I had to dig into kkk's twitter account to figure out what's going on with this and holy crap he's even more unhinged than he was when he came back and started this new career path. This thing with Kander is wild and I can't figure out why he's doing it.

BITB is probably not appropriate either.  Should be "Former BITB now KKK Today".  This guy is past trolling and is puking his career crisis in the form of peak MAGA all over social media.

I always wonder this about these people. 1) do they have friends? 2) when they are with them, do the friends laugh and call him a huge dumbass or do they all just sit around laughing knowing its all a gag? Like, i picture guys like Clay Travis sitting around in a giant house with his buddies laughing their asses off that dumbass people follow him for saying ridiculous things and making him rich.

clay travis is a lot smarter than kk. he absolutely knows what he's doing and is incredibly successful at it.

i'm afraid kk more or less believes the stuff he says.

put another way, clay travis sits around with his buds and counts his stacks and laughs at how dumb his audience is.

KK was always a self important bad person with horrible takes but I think getting getting "cancelled" pushed him way over the edge and he's completely submerged himself in victimhood.  This insanity and word vomit is likely a manifestation of his rage and delusion that he was attacked and ruined because of "the left" and "cancel culture".

I think this is right. There are various versions of the saying but it's basically: you can make money telling people the truth but you can get rich lying to people who want to be lied to.

that's what I figured. It just fascinates me though. I also wonder what the ratio of followers are true dumbasses and just people that think its funny. Its probably a terrifying amount of dumbasses, so I prob don't want to know.

The numbers are publicly available.  They did this huge count this past year, and in 2016 as well.

I quit paying attention to KK a long time ago when it became apparent he didn't understand the business he was talking about, particularly the business of college athletics.   One of my personal pet peeves are talking heads who constantly chirp about the business side of college athletics and yet clearly don't have a clue.

Twice when I was visiting in KC he's been in bars I was having a few drinky drinks with friends and he just seemed like a degenerate gambling douche.   There's only a certain level of degenerate I want to be around while watching sporting events, a threshold of degenerate tolerance and he exceeded it by miles.

I think he isn't getting the numbers he needs to survive.  I bet Ron Buck and the small time homebuilder in MHK don't pay FOR crap for his numbers and that makes him brood.  Throw in a few half dozen bud lights and he is ready to go off on twitter.  He thinks he is pulling a clay and his numbers will blow up but he is pretty wrong.

He had some other good ones.  I was in school in Massachusetts in 98 and came back the friday before the game to hunt.  Landed about the time BTL started and listened all the way to MHK and it was just gripping.  Can't really remember specifics but he could make you even more hyped then you already were for big KSU games.

It never was. @OlatheWildcat called him a racist on here all the way back in 2012. I started listening to him in 2000 and he was blowing dog whistles back then too.

Nick Wright told a story on Church Of Lazlo about meeting up with Clay for a drink when Fox wanted them to do a gambling show. Nick laid into him about how he thinks Clay is just a reprehensible human etc and clay was like woah woah woah, you don’t think I actually believe this stuff do you?

If there was a gif of nicname thwarting the attempted-flag-taker and then gesturing him to suck it, followed by motioning for all of Hilton Shelter to boo him louder, it'd be better than that auburn gif.
