Howard Eskin Continues His Odd, Creepy Obsession with Dianna Marie Russini
Howard Eskin, Philly sports pontificator emeritus, continued his somewhat creepy fascination – which almost feels like it borders on sexism – with ESPN’s Dianna Marie Russini.
Russini, Straight Outta DC – who found herself in the, um, headlines last month – tweeted, somewhat innocuously, that the Redskins would benefit from bad weather on Sunday. I’m not sure I agree with her (though the Eagles are the better team and usually the better team is hurt by the great equalizer that is Mother Nature), but Eskin’s response was, typically, over the top:
I truly have no idea what happened between Eskin and Russini. I’m guessing it involved Eskin creepin’ in a press room somewhere. But the trolling is odd, especially when you consider the following exchange, from March, where Dianna turned out to be pretty accurate:
The order of events was wrong. But the Eagles signed Tim Tebow, and then traded Matt Barkley… and then cut Tim Tebow.
