Oh Madden

Jennifer Bullano ‏@PensPRLady
I was going for the @MarkMaddenX vs. @MearsyNHL battle

Mark Madden ‏@MarkMaddenX
@PensPRLady @MearsyNHL In other words...major-lg (me) vs minor-lg (whatsizname).

Steve Mears ‏@MearsyNHL
@MarkMaddenX @PensPRLady Sorry, was too busy talking to Patrick Roy. Which wrestling blogger did you have in between Alice In Chains songs?

[DudeMan2766]

Ha. I love it cause Mears has no problem going right back at him. Sometimes he won't even engage him hell just say " what are you even talking about" so they can get on with the interview

[MRandall25]

I knew I liked Mearsy

[Malkamaniac]

I dig the Mearsy and Madden battles. They're just doing it for the giggles.

Pony has been on with Cook today filling in for Vinny.

You can tell he is restraining his jackassery for fear Ron Cook will yell at him.

Cook made Pony seem sane at some points.

Who is that @suckmeter guy Dejan always has on his radio show?

[Troy Loney]

Got a laugh out of Filiponi beating his chest yesterday cause some blogger had a bad showing at their stupid fan contest thing. Apparantly these guys are taking the blogs and message board complaining to heart.

[DudeMan2766]

Pretty entertaining twitter slap fight I woke up to today between Madden and a blogger. This guy apparently posted Madden's phone number, then called Mark classless for bringing up this guys stalking charge from his ex gf last year. Someone sent Madden a photo of the court record on this guy. Madden's trying to get this guys ex gilfriend on his show. Pretty ridiculous all around actually, but funny nonetheless

Do we know who said blogger is?

slappybrown?

[FreeCandy44]

Maybe one of the Pens Blog boys?

No, he goes by the name MadChad412 on Twitter. He had his own blog at one point that wasn't much different in style than Madden's act - lots of self-proclaimed "controversial" opinions backed by bravado and tough-talk writing. He now writes for the PensInitiative blog, which I think is a combination of elements of like three or four different blogs.

He had a feud with Derek from tPB a little more than a year ago. Apparently he got pissed off at tPB because he followed Derek and Adam on Twitter and when they didn't immediately follow him back, he put Derek on blast, claiming that tPB were big-timing him. (I guess not following back a fellow blogger was some gross violation of Twitter protocol? Who knows. Kids these days.) This all pre-dated his stalking charge.

Anyway, I saw a little bit of this slapfight he had with Madden yesterday and was left shaking my head at the whole thing. I'm not a fan of Madden's per se, and his whole act has worn thin on me, but I found it funny that this guy initiated the whole thing with Madden and then acted surprised when Madden fired back at him. If picking Twitter fights with pseudo-celebs in the media is your thing, great, but don't be surprised when they respond in kind.

And I see by a number of retweets of his account in my Twitter feed this morning that he's still bragging about it today. Good times.

On top of that, he tweeted Madden's personal phone number, which is a huge no no.

[DudeMan2766]

Yeah. That's when Madden fired back about this guy arrested for stalking his ex gf last year, and MadChad called Madden "low" for doing it or something like this. Keep in mind this is after the guy posted Marks number.Chads buddies are trying to back him up wih "dude that was over a year ago" Give me a break. You were arrested for stalking.

This was actually directed at the Poni makes fun of blogger.
