This week in schadenfreude Crowley Sullivan has a meltdown on twitter
You may remember this was the guy at B1G media day who was drilling Harbaugh about not beating his rivals and living up to the hype. He writes for a little publication called Spartanwire.
Well, seems he didn't have a good weekend. Enjoy.
If Lewerke fumbles or snap miscues or missed INT was a drinking game I’d be blacked out early in the 2nd quarter of this game. What is that like his 6th? https://t.co/rSbveQNrbo

FWIW the Maryland Regents insisted Lewerke start today.

MSU coaching staff reminds me of parents who expect the overachieving child to be perfect every single day. Yet enables and supports the kid still living at home who plays video games all day and is unemployed. #DefenseVsOffenseProblems

CoachD hates scoring points.
— SpartanWire (@SpartanWire) November 10, 2018
I’ve never been a ‘fire Dave Warner’ guy but if CoachD doesn’t completely fire everyone and reinvent our Offensive philosophy I’m not watching MSU football. I’m taking my Saturdays back. https://t.co/JBJ8TNhfPk

Why in God’s name would I come to MSU if I’m a top defensive recruit??? MSU would squander my hard work on the other side of the ball. https://t.co/Twg7Lk8YUy

I’m out, folks. Enjoy the shitshow that’s the rest of this football season. See you in March. ✌? https://t.co/3oEVWLDE0c

You know that old saying, "Looks can be deceiving?"
I'd say this is one case where they aren't.
November 12th, 2018 at 8:23 PM ^
Who gave this unethical, integrity-less sack of shit credentials to begin with?
November 12th, 2018 at 8:23 PM ^
I think his name is dumb.
November 13th, 2018 at 5:34 AM ^
He was probably born in a defunct department store.
November 13th, 2018 at 8:59 AM ^
Or conceived in its bathroom.
November 12th, 2018 at 8:27 PM ^
"Improvement will lead to success, will lead to championships. You smug little Bitch". -JH
He actually didn’t say that last part, but I bet he was thinking it.
November 12th, 2018 at 8:28 PM ^
MSU coaching staff reminds me of parents who expect the overachieving child to be perfect every single day. Yet enables and supports the kid still living at home who plays video games all day and is unemployed.
Is he speaking from experience here?
November 12th, 2018 at 8:32 PM ^
He was the kid playing video games.
EDIT: Obvious... but I didn't want anyone to actually have to imagine this guy as a parent.
November 13th, 2018 at 6:07 AM ^
Probably bad video games, too. Like, instead of Madden football, he was the one kid playing Sports Talk Football.
The neighborhood kids would come over because Crowley’s parents bought him a Sega Genesis. But then it was like, “Come on, guys. Let’s play some Sports Talk Football.”
November 13th, 2018 at 6:00 AM ^
No, because I doubt he was an overachieving child. Unless you consider walking and breathing at the same time as overachieving.
November 12th, 2018 at 8:28 PM ^
What a pussy
November 12th, 2018 at 8:29 PM ^
See you in March...for one game.
November 12th, 2018 at 8:29 PM ^
So he's just not going to cover their last couple of football games? He's out?
November 12th, 2018 at 8:34 PM ^
John C. Reilly is a writer for Sparty?
November 12th, 2018 at 8:44 PM ^
"I turn to stone
When you talk zone
I turn to stone
Turn to stone
When my math is blown
I can't go home
Turn to zone
When I self-own
I turn to stone"
- Crowley Sullivan, maybe
November 12th, 2018 at 8:46 PM ^
LOL, this guy needs to be fired
November 12th, 2018 at 8:50 PM ^
If my parents had named me “Crowley Sullivan” I’d be pissed off too.
November 12th, 2018 at 9:00 PM ^
They misspelled Crybaby.
November 12th, 2018 at 8:56 PM ^
This guy is presumably a professional and he says "shitshow"? Is this accepted practice and I'm just an old fart now or does that seem at all strange?
November 12th, 2018 at 9:11 PM ^
His site is affiliated with USA Today's attempt at a CFB network - though I am not sure for how much longer based on above.
I wonder how Isiah Hole from Wolverines Wire feels with a Dickwad like this guy as his "peer" on a (little) brother site......
Post MSU game I went over to the site - it doesn't allow comments unfortunately. If you ever wanted to see the perfect example of "little brother" all you needed to do was read his articles leading up to the game..
November 13th, 2018 at 6:00 AM ^
Yeah, after seeing your comment I went over there and skimmed through some articles myself. My god, what a horror show.
Right now the top article is some bizarre piece in which he calls Chase Winovich “Foghorn Leghorn” and argues that Kenny Willekes is a better player because apparently football is the only thing Willekes does, whereas Winovich does some other things too.
Literally every article on the site was authored by Sullivan, yet each article dutifully includes a byline for him. Does this imply that the site is supposed to have other contributors and, for some reason, does not? Or is it just unnecessary text that signals something negative about Sullivan’s self-esteem?
There seems to be a plurality of articles bashing Michigan, whom he refers to as “UMAA.” Nobody uses “UMAA.” Except Sullivan, I guess.
Overall, it has basically the flavor you would expect if a typical RCMB poster had his own Spartans blog. There is no objectivity, no real analysis, no respect for the players or coaches or the game itself. It’s like if Damefan1 got a hold of a keyboard. And cheered for State.
November 13th, 2018 at 6:44 AM ^
That "article" about Winovich is one of the most pathetic things I've ever read. As I said before, what a fucking loser.
November 12th, 2018 at 9:10 PM ^
What a douche. I hate fans like that. Especially disguised as a reporter.
He does make some good points though.
November 12th, 2018 at 9:36 PM ^
Well he wasn't too upset to write this travesty of an article today:

November 12th, 2018 at 9:37 PM ^
Did you know he went to University of Chicago? He mentions every time someone mentions MSU's academics, dude is a total tool. He also tried to get a guy fired for making fun of MSU academics as well and then blocked me when I gave him too much shit.
November 12th, 2018 at 9:40 PM ^
So he defends MSU's academics by saying that he went to a different school instead?
November 13th, 2018 at 8:12 AM ^
LOL hypocrite.
November 12th, 2018 at 9:38 PM ^
This is an adult journalist?
November 13th, 2018 at 7:24 AM ^
If you take some pretty extreme liberties with both terms, yes.
November 12th, 2018 at 9:41 PM ^
Little pencil-neck pissant.
November 12th, 2018 at 9:44 PM ^
I bet he'd be fun to roundhouse kick
November 12th, 2018 at 9:49 PM ^
yeesh, just saw spartanswire for the first time. it's unabashedly SourGrapesWire.
November 12th, 2018 at 10:07 PM ^
I can't read any more. He kisses Meyer's ass for being "respectful" and then actually boasts about Dantonio's losing record against Meyer, because no other program has come as close to challenging the Buckeyes in that time span. I mean, he has a point, sort of. It's just weird. There's a long string of very thinly veiled attacks on Michigan without ever directly owning up to it. Very littlebro. They're not ever going to be able to let go of that underdog mentality.
November 12th, 2018 at 9:53 PM ^
What a great guy to have reporting on your program.
November 12th, 2018 at 10:05 PM ^
At least he dresses like he understands the food chain. Ghey ass St. Pattys day green shirt covered up by a GO BLUE jacket. Harbs would beat that dude in any contest. Including beat that dude.
November 12th, 2018 at 10:12 PM ^
November 12th, 2018 at 10:15 PM ^
This guy has Press credentials? I have a feeling this guy won't be invited to Mark Dantonio's annual Christmas sleepover.
November 13th, 2018 at 9:03 AM ^
coach grumpy just pulled his hard press pass.
November 12th, 2018 at 11:58 PM ^
Wow. What a child....
November 13th, 2018 at 1:55 AM ^
I gotta agree with him on one point.
Brian Lewerke totally shit the bed this year, injured or not.
November 13th, 2018 at 7:26 AM ^
If the football God's have a sense of humor, they will throw a decade plus of miserable football upon MSU to remind the school who they really are.
November 13th, 2018 at 7:26 AM ^
Argh! Why can't we upvote OP with this new format? This post deserves an enthusiastic upvote.
November 13th, 2018 at 7:29 AM ^
Someone check coach Harbaugh's likes on twitter, I pray he has liked one of these tweets
November 13th, 2018 at 8:17 AM ^
I don't know who is worse this guy or Jim Comparoni. Comparoni was cheering for Devin Gardner to get hurt a few years back and saying how awful Devin Bush was when he was tearing up the field at Spartan Stadium. These MSU media guys are a bunch of hacks. More evidence to the claim that journalism is dead.
November 13th, 2018 at 8:49 AM ^
For those who don't know who this Crowley Sullivan of Spartanwire guy is, the leading questions he asked of Jim Harbaugh:

November 13th, 2018 at 9:02 AM ^
he's no Zach Smith
November 13th, 2018 at 9:08 AM ^
Here is a picture of Crowley when he was a little boy.
November 13th, 2018 at 9:27 AM ^
You are correct sir.
- The spartans are a pile of hot garbage.
- A smoldering tire fire filling the atmosphere full of toxicity.
- A steaming pile of warm dog poop.
- A dumpster of a restaurant in the summer filled with decomposing food after they dump the old deep fryer grease on it.
- The smell of a giant chicken farm.
- A fresh pile of deer guts in the woods after it has been gutted in deer season.
