You'd think that, with the legendary reputation of the one and only Tommy Craggs, the man whose career output is basically 13,048 unique and erudite ways to tell his peers in the sports writing world "Fuck you," the man who literally ruined a great job opportunity by farting on an ant in the employ ...

Evidence supporting that fact begins here.

Tommy Craggs Is The Michael Jordan Of Disagreeable Sonsofbitches
This block is one of Tommy’s favorite plays in sports.

TK Is For Tommy Kraggs
You could tell Craggs thought he was the best writer at Deadspin because he never wrote, and when he did write, it was on the crappiest subject possible.

An Ungodly Monster Of A Stout From Colorado
Last week I told all you big, dirty motherfuckers that we were getting off the imperial stouts for a few. You know, get our heads together, our resolutions set in stone, our children's names remembered, the whole deal. Ha. Check it out: I lied. People who write about beer for half a living will do t...
