Deadspin doxxed Barstool’s PFT Commenter

Deadspin Just Doxxed Me And You'll Never Believe What Happened Next
Nothing.
Absolutely nothing happened next. I just think it’s funnier if people didn’t know my real identity but the internet can’t have nice things. It’s funny that Deadspin was mad about the Washington Post article granting me anonymity but Deadspin has essentially granted me anonymity for the last 4 years too. All that changed when an article came out that was moderately positive, so they decided now would be the time to put it out there.

So instead of reading their article just see it here. Here it is: WARNING GRAPHIC MATERIAL FOLLOWS. PARENTAL ADVISORY
My name is Eric Sollenberger. Here’s a picture of me writing this blog in the RV without sunglasses:

Here are my dirty little secrets B-Rabbit style-
1. I got arrested for drunk in public on St. Patrick’s day when I was 19
2. I’m short. Many people don’t realize this because I walk so very tall
3. I can’t pronounce the word anonymity at all. I’ve tried to several times in the last couple hours and I simply can’t do it
Don’t give Deadspin the clicks they’re chasing, and please don’t use it to harass Laura or anyone else there. It will just prove their point and no one wins in an internet argument. “Lions don’t concern themselves with the opinions of sheep.”

PS Oh shite Eric just died in an RV accident while he was writing this blog. This is his identical twin brother taking over- my name is actually PFT Commenter and I will be taking over his blogging and podcasting duties now that he’s dead. With his last dying breath Eric said how much he loved you guys and how much it meant to him that you’ve gone along with the joke even though his name has been out there and you’ve probably already seen his eyes when YP forgot to blur them out. That meant a lot to him and he wanted you all to know that. #RIPEric #LongLivePFTCommenter.
While I’ve got you here please subscribe and unsubscribe then resubscribe again to PFT Commenter’s debut podcast on Pardon My Take tomorrow. And if you’re feeling frisky please also subscribe and unsubscribe to Lights, Camera, Barstool. Very funny stuff from Jeff Lowe, KenJac, and Trillballins.
PPS Let’s never talk about this ever again

As if I needed another reason to not read Deadspin

Can they do Larry Leo next?

Smart move by PFT to steal their pathetic attempt for clicks and get Barstool more traffic.

deadspin can't die fast enough

Deadspin has gone way downhill in the last 10 years.
Now pretty much everything they post is douchey political BS

Deadspin is still pissed they lost their title of being that "cool" sports site to Barstool.

They are butthurt that they got all political and Barstool blew past them in the Sports Comedy world

Many already knew who he was. Deadspin can EAD.
Posted on 5/22/18 at 2:36 pm to David Ricky
His wedding pictures have been online from years ago and his real name was pretty easy to find on the internet. Leave it to deadspin to think they have breaking news on their hands. That website used to be great but it is a total shite show now.

While it's shitty for them to dox him. A number of ppl knew who PFT was before this article. PFT definitely took the high road in this situation when he asked the Barstool guys not to harass Wagner over this article and he specifically asked Dave not to.

I never understood why it was such a big deal to maintain his anonymity.
One thing I will say is that Eric/PFT is the superstar of Barstool and the rest of the guys, especially Portnoy, bring down his value. If he isn't in some unique profit-sharing plan where he gets paid much more than the CEO (i.e. a head coach getting paid much more than the AD), I don't know why he doesn't go to another company.
I think the Deadspin article had some valid points, and I think Eric's response is fine and in character.

Wow, the author of that article is miserable and jealous AF.

He's said that he knew it would come out eventually, but he's thinks the anonymity adds to the character and thinks its better that fans know nothing about him. I think he's even said that some fans told him that and didn't want to know anything about him.
ETA: like the article mentioned, it wasn't hard to find out, but PFT would rather fans make that choice for themselves than be outed by another publication.

That’s the difference though. Eric/PFT seems like a genuinely good guy. And he’s not gonna stoop to deadspins level.

Deadspin is so fricking stupid.
