The highlight of the Daryl Morey press conference calling Howard Eskin, “Trent Crimm” –

It’s a perfect comp. Other GMs should use it for the asshole reporter in their city. Like when every white guy from Europe who can shoot gets the Dirk comparison. “Does Howard Eskin know who Trent Crimm is?” was going off at -4000 for ‘no’ at the Crossing Broad Sportsbook and Casino. Cash those tickets!

Is it me or was Eskin extra ornery today? Probably because he woke up to the news that Cherelle Parker supports the downtown Sixers stadium. I’m shocked he didn’t mix in a question about the arena between calling for Morey’s head. That’s the King though. He asks the hard hitting questions other reporters are too scared to ask! The King and Seth Joyner. In a tier of their own.

On the other hand, can someone on the comms team get Daryl’s breathing under control before we send him out to the masses? Maybe he actually needs a Doc:

Hey man, you’re taking questions from a bunch of English majors, you’re not in front of a firing squad. I’m picturing Daryl looking like Linval Joseph in his office before his 1:30 meeting:

You’re the face of the front office now, we can’t have you pass out up there.

P.S. Since I know Howard is reading this because he reads everything written about him on CB – put your money where your mouth is. Accept my challenge to a milk off, Genius:

Kinkead: I think the comparison is actually insulting to Trent Crimm. One is a actual journalist and the other is a talking head who carries water for the Eagles.
