Deadspin represents the absolute worst of 'new media'. I used to go there for radio show prep purposes, but stopped about 7 or 8 months ago
Honestly, if the guy actually had the picture, what does he get by offering to sell it? Nobody is going to take him up on that. If you actually have it, then release it and get your 15 minutes of fame. Doing it like this makes you look like you're just trying to sucker someone into paying you for nothing.
IF the guy is to be believed, he says he's held onto the picture in the hope that Stanzi gets famous and the guy could sell the pictures for profit. If that was the case the guy should have waited until either the draft or at least until the post-season awards came out. Handling it like this would be the equivalent of releasing nude photos of one of the Glee actresses in the summer of 2008.
I think Stanzi peaked when he said "Love it or leave it."
Pot should be legal. I don't care if he smokes pot now so long as he isn't doing it before the game.
