September 2009 Comscore: To the Moon
Media Gossip/Musings October 23rd. 2009, 4:00pm
September’s a massive month for sports – the NFL and college football collide with the culmination of the baseball season. And then there’s fantasy football. The end result: almost everyone’s numbers were up considerably from August. The increases in some places were unbelievably massive. Yahoo clocked over 10 million more unique readers than it did in September 2008. ESPN’s year-over-year gain was five million. Everyone else after the jump. [Photo: SI Vault.]

Best part of that photo are the yellow laces in Jack’s shoes. Awesome!
October 23rd, 2009 at 4:04 pm
So Magic made sure to turn that way so it would look like Jack’s upper body was his penis right?
October 23rd, 2009 at 4:04 pm
Where the fuck is TBL?!?!

I’m guessing this is the way they traveled to the post-game gang-bang @ Jack’s house.
October 23rd, 2009 at 4:09 pm
legend has it that he is right here [points towards heart]
October 23rd, 2009 at 4:16 pm
Magic just looks like he wants to fucking something in that pic.
October 23rd, 2009 at 4:16 pm

October 23rd, 2009 at 4:17 pm
Probably a dude.

what do you mean “look like”? i thought it was…
October 23rd, 2009 at 4:24 pm
i like how magic just wrote that isiah was a bad guy because every one already hates him. did magic lose his ass with stock market or something? I thought he was almost billionaire from all of his business ventures and movie theaters.
October 23rd, 2009 at 4:26 pm
So is this pic how Magic got High 5?
October 23rd, 2009 at 4:27 pm
He’s awesome in those Rent-A-center commercials…

Hes the only person to have a starbucks franchise. Everything else is corporate.

(Magic undoes pants, girl looks down at smiling Jack Nicholson face)
“I’d like an omelet, plain, and a chicken salad sandwich on wheat toast, no mayonnaise, no butter, no lettuce. And a cup of coffee. Now all you have to do is hold the chicken, bring me the toast, give me a check for the chicken salad sandwich, and you haven’t broken any rules.”

What happened to the Magic Johnson theaters?
They just keep playing “Philadelphia” over and over again?
October 23rd, 2009 at 4:30 pm
Remember when Isaiah took all those pills last year…silly Isaiah.

How the hell is Kurt Rambis going to survive in Minnesota without all that L.A. poon?
October 23rd, 2009 at 4:37 pm
There’s plenty of poon in Minneapolis…if you prefer them hefty.

Does anyone really care about Comscore numbers? It’s cool if you do, I’m just curious.
October 23rd, 2009 at 5:02 pm
whoever wrote that doesn’t know dick about UFC. And I hear all his teams suck.
/my teams are awesome, everything you like is ghey’d
October 23rd, 2009 at 5:02 pm
No. I bet no one cares except TBL. But he does run the site.
October 23rd, 2009 at 5:02 pm
I’m guessing this is the way they traveled to the post-game to watch Roman Polanski rape and sodomy a 13 year old @ Jack’s house.
October 23rd, 2009 at 5:03 pm
Met Rothwell once, really cool guy. I also know Neer pretty well. So I’ll be pulling for Neer to win.

Like most posts I don’t care about, i skip it and move to the comments and start talking about whatever people are talking about (usually not the post topic)

Cain’s great on the ground, yet his AKA training hasn’t given him a stand-up game.
October 23rd, 2009 at 5:10 pm

great on the groundabove average, yet his AKA training hasn’t given him a stand-up game.October 23rd, 2009 at 5:10 pm
True. How about that Scooby Doo, huh? Always getting into shit…
October 23rd, 2009 at 5:11 pm
I bet every fan can say this, but reading Peter King’s analysis of the Steelers, I’m honestly not sure if he’s ever watched the Steelers or done any homework on them before writing this

October 23rd, 2009 at 5:11 pm
Then again, the top products of AKA, who are the wrestlers of the group that is, aren’t exactly that good in the stand-up game…Koscheck’s probably the exception.
October 23rd, 2009 at 5:12 pm
everyone was raving about how he beat kongo’s ass but kongo doesnt know what to do when he is on his back. rothwell does and if cain gets to comfy he will get tapped and we already have seen he is vulnerable to a KO if he is hti hard enough.
October 23rd, 2009 at 5:12 pm
PETER KING IS GOOD AT HIS JOB GODDAMMIT!
October 23rd, 2009 at 5:13 pm
Seriously. Is TBL dead, or is he banging an elephant Steve Phillip’s style?
October 23rd, 2009 at 5:14 pm
This is my kind of strip club.
October 23rd, 2009 at 5:14 pm
I’ve always found it slightly amusing how much hype Cain gets at AKA.

Back to the Herm Edwards post. Darrell is arguing he’s a good coach. Move it along people. Get back there. I’ll watch this post no one cares about. Leave your coats on the bed in the back room.
