After Ted Cruz pwned Deadspin, the rag’s previously quiescent editor Tim Marchman inexplicably started talking smack.
Amazing that low-testosterone Ted Cruz enthusiasts are comfortable haranguing @ashleyfeinberg but not me, Deadspin's actual editor!

Keep in mind that Marchman had not exactly been an active tweeter before:
Getting pwned by @tedcruz: 9 tweets. Everything else since you signed up for Twitter: 2 tweets. This is your apogee. @timmarchman

But this did not deter him:
Ted Cruz is a pathetic asshole, his social media intern's joke was basic, and complaints should go to marchman at deadspin dot com.

This was odd for a number of reason, not least of which is that after you’ve been brutally pwned, it’s best to not draw attention to how badly you’ve been pwned. If you’re Marvis Frazier, and Mike Tyson has just put you down for the count 30 seconds after the opening bell, the last thing you should do is start bragging about what a badass you are.
But that’s precisely what Marchman did:
Unsurprising that not one Ted Cruz-supporting cuck/Twitter user is willing to face me in the UFC octagon.

Like his minion’s original Cruz tweets, it appears that Marchman did not think his cunning scheme all the way through:
I'm your huckleberry. I also take note that you are a pathetic cyber bully. My email is tim@rangerup.com I'm available at your leisure. https://t.co/6AS3qAllXV

Tim Kennedy is a retired professional MMA fighter out of Austin whose record was 24-18.
Strangely, since then Marchman’s Twitter feed has gone silent again…
Some, when digging themselves deeper in a hole don’t realize it’s a good isea to stop – they ask for a bigger shovel.
