    How much would a Sports Illustrated with "erefdvdb jfgn" written on it go for anyway? #assholefandigest

    I know this article isn't really about Ali per se, but when I was a little kid in the late 70s, I was on a flight out of O'Hare with my parents. We were in the American Airlines club, and Muhammed Ali walked in with his entourage. I was young (probably between 6 and 8). Much to my chagrin, my parents convinced me to walk up to Ali and ask for his autograph. I was very reluctant and scared, but my parents virtually forced me to go.

    I approached Ali and asked him, he immediately showed me his fist which was the size of a 16 inch softball. He said, "are you looking for trouble?" As you could imagine, I nearly shit myself and almost started crying.

    Just then, Ali broke into a huge smile and told me he was just kidding. He literally picked me up and sat me down beside him and had the waitress bring me a coke. I sat there with him for maybe 5 minutes. He asked me a few questions and then signed an autograph for me (which I lost, dumbshit). He couldn't have been nicer or more gracious to a little kid he had never met and would never see again.

    Pat Murphy, however, never did that for me.

    Sorry, but if this guy worked at ESPN and acted exponentially less like the Satan/Hitler hybrid that he did at this event, you DEFINITELY would have had no qualms publishing his name and email. If anything, he deserves to be outed FAR MORE than taliking heads with failing marriages and eyesight as poor as their GMing abilities. Sack up and post his info - he sent it to you voluntarily to try and make the ASU coach look bad, so publishing it is not slanderous. Just is as just does and this guy HAS TO get what's coming to him. Until you do, I am going to harass everybody with any signed Ali SIs on eBay mercilessly. What a fucking asshole.

    I don't think I've ever wanted someone's name and e-mail address this badly. Seriously, this schmuck should be down on his knees thanking Drew for keeping him anonymous. #assholefandigest

    If anyone wants to buy an autographed Muhammad Ali Sports Illustrated, PM me.

    Also, I have some iPhone upskirt shots of various members of the Ali family.

    K THX! #assholefandigest

    @Chris Hanson's Axe: Also, so we can read through the comments and laugh hysterically at the morons who inevitably jumped all over Murphy. Although, I did notice that most comments seemed to dislike Asshole from the start, which was nice of them. #assholefandigest

    Considering how many people love Ali, someone could have told him not to wear that shirt. #assholefandigest
