Howard Eskin is Still Very Mad about Sam Hinkie

Sam Hinkie and Howard Eskin had a complicated, toxic relationship. Howard always wanted more, more, more. He wanted to know “what we’re doing here,” and talk about “us.” Sam just wanted to look to the future and not worry about “labels” or when he was gonna propose “land the plane.” It was doomed from the start.

Now he’s resurfaced on Twitter and humble-bragged and exaggerated about his new gig. He said he’d be doing “some teaching (at Stanford). Deadspin looked into it. He’ll be doing “maybe a couple guest lectures in classes (at Stanford)”. That’s all Eskin needed: Another frivolous excuse to call him a fraud. Now Howard is feeling the stages of grief in reverse. He’s mad.

All this bashing, but if he’s like every other jilted ex out there, he probably just slid into those DMs with a simple “hey bb.”
