The last few clips I've seen of press conferences, there is a guy who can barely talk, can't get the words out of his mouth. The interviewee's seem to have alot of patience and understanding while he asks the question. I assume he has some sort of disability. Who is he? What's his story?

Lay off Brandon, he is in a wheelchair and has a service dog. Incredible what he is doing. He writes great stories.

Thanks for the info. I wasn't making fun. Just looking for the background story.

Now that that’s cleared up, whats the story behind Chip Towers being taken off DawgNation and getting quarantined to ajc only? 
I heard its because DawgNation is now clogged with cringy millennial writers that create entire articles about a gif or an emoji combo a player used in a tweet instead of providing insightful commentary or reporting And Chip wasn’t having none of that.

I have zero inside info but my impression over the last year is that Chip and Kirby aren't buddy buddy, and so maybe DN pulled chip back a little ? Pure rumor/gossip from my end.

If true I would love to know the back story. Kirby seems smart enough to know Chip would be a better ally than enemy.

Did anybody see him randomly going off on Atlanta United fans on Twitter this morning?
Posted on 8/28/19 at 10:20 pm to BranchDawg
I don't twitter so fill me in.

It’s a lot of back-and-forth, so I’ll just link his profile.
You can scroll through if you want.
TL;DR: it started with Hugh Douglas responding to a tweet asking if Blank would trade all of United’s success for 1 SB trophy. Ledbetter said United was minor league soccer and then spent the whole day trolling United fans and reporters by calling the league a joke and their wins didn’t count for anything.

Ledbetter is a douche, but is he wrong?

I mean, CFB is minor league football, but does that mean championships don’t mean anything? Obviously not.
It means something if large swaths of people give a shite, and whether people like it or not, people (especially ITP) definitely give a shite about Atlanta United.
I just found Ledbetter’s trolling funny and generally douchey.

The football analogy is wrong though. College football existed long before professional football.
So winning a college championship means as much, and in many cases more, than a superbowl win.
Back to MLS, didn't that come from socialism? The franchise team got all the top players for a year or two by rule?
What are we celebrating here? A startup gets an all-star team for a couple years and lo and behold, they win.
It's all so plastic to me.
