Phoenix area pediatric cardiologist tells Adrian Dater to “catch a movie in Aurora”
One Phoenix Coyotes fan is no fan of the Denver Post’s Adrian Dater. In fact, Doctor Scott Schnee, a pediatric cardiologist, apparently told Dater on Twitter a bit ago to “go catch a movie in Aurora”. Schee followed up that gem by suggesting that Dater can “join Jessica for all I care”.
Since posting the offensive Tweets, Dr. Schnee has reset his Twitter account (@BabyDocScott) to "locked " for what would appear to be obvious reasons. Naturally, the possibility exists that these horrible words were not those of Dr Scott Schnee, whos contact information is readily available on the internet. It’s more likely, however, that the doc did say these things.
This is a man who’s chosen profession is to help sick children; yet he’s apparently willing to say very, very sick things in the name of hockey.
I spoke with Peter Burns of Mile High Sports Radio to get his reaction to Schnee’s comments. Burns, who was a close friend of Jessica Redfield, the “Jessica” Schnee was referring to. He called the comments “absolutely disgusting” and was shocked that they were made by a physician.

Today in Twitter beefs: Gary Miller and Adrian Dater may not be kidding around
Over the past several weeks the Denver Post's Adrian Dater and Channel 4 anchor Gary Miller have slung what seem to have been some good natured insults at one another over Twitter. As their "beef" progresses it's tough not to wonder if there's some legitimate bad blood between them.

Huge douche, Stephen A Smith freaks out over an article in the Onion
ESPN's Stephen A Smith, who is a huge douche, is reacting on Twitter today to an article that claims he's ready to have the "sex argument" with his nine-year-old son.
He Tweets:
I thought I'd heard enough despicable lies about myself. Now there's some article out that I have a 9-yr-old son and I'm going to have a conversation with him about Sex. Mind you, I neither have a son nor a 9-Year-old. Some ppl are beyond despicable. No end! Sad what extent people will go to. Amazing how folks try to tear cats down, primarily due to perceived power of the spoken word. Damn Shame, but too bad. Because I don't intend on going anywhere. Really, Really sad, though!
Wow. He's pissed. There's just one problem. The story he's so riled up about ran in the Onion.
Now he looks like even more of a moron than he did before - and that's really saying something.
Beat you to it, Deadspin.

Late night Twitter rumor leaves Rox fans flat
Why I am over hating Carmelo, By @Mrs__NBA
Our favorite NBA follow on Twitter is the always-hilarious @Mrs__NBA. She's not only deeply knowledgeable about the league past AND present but she sees things with a fan's eye - which we always appreciate. She's worthy of a follow not only for her basketball mind but for her unique insights on male / female relationships. Toss her a follow - or an Afflalo, if you prefer.
@Mrs__NBA was kind enough to allow us to repost this entry from her blog, Measuring NBA Kicks Since 1946 over at Blogspot.

I never really liked sports until I had a religious conversion when the Broncos lost to the 49ers in that one Super Bowl. Now I'm obsessed with all aspects of the Denver pro sports world. Oh yeah, I hate college football. It's crap. Talk to me on twitter @johnreidydenverRecent items
