Anyone remember this site? ESPN refused to credit them as a source when they broke news. Apparently, the owner of the site has been MIA for years due to his "mental health". Here's an article about the difficulty in tracking him down.

REC.
He basically vanished after he started snooping around the T-Town Men's Wear stuff.

Dude had some issues. Alcohol was one.

I stopped visiting the site in the later years when he decided to get rid of the scantly clad girls.

I just remember he had chicks with comically big tits on that site.

He died walking upstairs eating a salad.
Scary.

Jeff pearlman knows what happened to him

“Here’s what I can tell you. I wrote the story. I literally have on my computer a 10,000-word Sports by Brooks story that I busted my butt on hardcore. I wrote it for Bleacher Report and one of the editors said ‘I just don’t feel comfortable with this because it feels like a mental health illness.’ I did not find him, as in we did not have a face-to-face encounter. I found out, basically, what has become of him. And I’ll just say that I think my editor is correct in that it was the right thing not to…I’ll just say sometimes people go away for a reason. Not just because they fade out of prominence.”

From one of my favorite movies. Love this scene.

He went off the deep end towards the end. His last few months of tweets were about bizarre topics that had nothing to do with sports. Then poof. Into obscurity.
I'm disappointed they didn't release the investigative piece but if the dude was wearing tin foil apparel and eating cat food I can see the justification to pull it.
