Deadspin
Sorry, I couldn't resist.
As most of you know, today is my last day writing for Deadspin. Thanks to everyone for putting up with my NBA Closers, weekend nonsense and drunken Nightmare Ant posts over the last couple of months. I sincerely appreciate all the best wishes I've read in the comments and received via e-mail. Truth. I'm going to print them out and roll around in 'em ... naked.
Of course, I also want to thank Will for trusting me with the Gawker log-in info — password: hankypankiel — and allowing me write whatever the hell my cold, little Canadian heart desired. I really can't thank him enough for this opportunity, though I'll try hard if I ever meet the guy. (Sager bombs and karaoke!)
And with that hurried "goodbye," I'm done. Take care, everyone, and you'll be hearing from me around these here Internets soon enough. Bye!

Come back, Shane!..er...Skeets!
Yes! Yes! Yes!
You are the man Skeets, you will be missed. Go Bills!
He's less scary when you make him smaller. Even if there are 50 of him.
Try not to get any papercuts while you're rolling around, Skeets. We'll miss you.
Crazy Canucks.
BuhhhBYE!
Yo it's time to talk about the numbers...
It's been about a half year, about 2 days every 3 weekends, with many nuggets of knowledges, informational posts and 1 terrorist nightmare ant attack. But we've survived it all. Let's hear it for it J.E.! *ding ding ding*
And remember You've got to be very careful if you don't know where you're going, because you might not get there. Hello? Is this thing on? Alright then,
Wheresoever you may go, go at it with all your heart. It doesn't matter how fast or how slow you may go, just as long as you do not stop.
Embrace the real sweet world, Skeets.
Naked Skeets and Nightmare Ants? I shall not be sleeping tonight.
Ack! Kill it! Kill it!
O Canada!
I'm not sure how the rest of it goes, but I'll miss you, Skeets.
HankyPankiel will be the name of every fantasy baseball team I have from now until the end of time.
@ Suss:
+ Eleventy billion.
@Coming Into The Game ♪♪ ♪♪♪ #Roc23 -- The Superstar Receive...: That was beautiful, man.
We need some Nightmare Raid.
@Suss: +50. Amazing.
@ Suss: Fuckin' A.
That's the most post all year.
Maybe Nightmare Ant is Supermike. There are about 50 of both.
allowing me write whatever the hell my cold, little Canadian heart desired.
I'd rather be burned in Canada than to freeze here in the South...
@ Suss--
+ ______.
It's a blank check. You earned it.
I'll just look back on the majesty of LBCS's comment: "Excuse me but there is a new and very important deadspin post about nightmare ants."
@Suss: Awe hell, I concede defeat +1
@ Suss: Poor Tracy Breakfast. Have you no soul?
We must kill the Queen.
@Suss: And this is why he's a #1 seed folks.
God damnit. Suss is experiencing the dream I had two nights ago wherein I made a comment so great I was showered in +1 after +1.
Some guys have all the luck. And skill. And Sussitude.
bye Alice the Snorg Girl!
i mean... Skeets!
The picture up top looks like the flag of the alien empire thats coming to kill us all.
Red Spin was lucky to have you.
@dk: Denton?
Nooo! Reconsider, Skeets! Who will provide us with future overlords? Who will regale us with tales of the Great White North and explain the ways of his fellow countrymen? What about the voice of Geddy Lee? How did it get so high? I wonder if he speaks like an ordinary guy?
This should take care of the Nightmare Ants.
@She Blinded Me With Violence: I know him. He does.
And that should just about finish the tourney. +63 Suss.
Did we ever get a rationale on why the heavy hitters from KSK weren't seeded? It's like March Madness without Gus Johnson or bad Nantz puns.
Thanks for the memories, Skeets. You better come to the states quick while the Loonie actually buys more here.
@She Blinded Me With Violence:
I know him. And he does.
@Slothrop: They're not regular commenters?
@PQ Crash: Awesome
@'Suss--: Since they'll probably be tallying these come December...
+ (60 * 250,000)
One for each ant braincell that perishes during your anticide.
@PQ Crash: a good 4 minutes and not one laser hit the ants. Im switching the the nukes.
@PQ Crash: Loved it!
@PQ Crash:
Wow. Well done.
@supermike4ever: Just said this on the last post before I realized Nightmare Ant took over. But yea...
[www.urbandictionary.com]
You've officially made it, big guy.
@preciousroy: @Gourmet Spud: And both of you are my fact-checkin' cuz.
@Candygram: This is very true, they're irregular commenters at best.
@Slothrop: Sequel????
@PQ Crash: From the looks of it, that webpage is taking care of Nightmare Ant as well as the military took care of the Cloverfield monster.
@The Fan's Attic: Funny, I was just checking the showtimes for Cloverfield.
@PQ Crash: (Stands up, Applauds, Whistles.)
Fuck the tournament. Sussman just won at life and Deadspin.
@I Party With Smoot: hm that's interesting.
not sure "a moron" best describes me when there are so many wonderful alternative descriptors, such as: a douche, a douchebag, a d-bag, a doooosh, etc...
Suss: Brillant.
OK so I see comments alluding to some toonamint. Without searching DS because I have not been here a lot this weekend--link?
@Lizabelle:
"won at life" = gets a date with the blonde girl in the KFC commercial.
/stupid commercial
/can't stop ranting about it
@PQ Crash: The Ants appear to be winning. [www.netdisaster.com]
yeah that's from june 2004 - pretty sure that has nothing to do with me.
bye Regis!
i mean, Skeets!
@being_sven: I can't recommend it. Plus, you'll probably get a headache watching it.
@The Fan's Attic: you guys are so awesome.
