A full breakdown of "The Great Bamboozle

Post by captainkickass »

Hello everyone, I am EveryoneLovesNudez. For those who don't know me, I'm the one that turned the NFL media world upside down yesterday.

It all started a few weeks ago, I have a friend on the Seahawks who is friends with Justin Britt, their former starting C who got hurt. He got released, Britt told my friend, and then my friend told me. I posted on their sub that he was released, and then a few hours later, it was officially announced.

This gave me a lot of credibility inside the Seattle subreddit, and I knew I had to get back at them for the all-time robbery known as "The Fail Mary".

So I started thinking...what could I do? Then it hit me, fabricate a massive trade and see how far I could go with it. But who was the trade target? I wanted somebody at a premier position, top 5 at that position but most importantly...believable.

Mahomes? Nope, not believable.

Aaron Donald? Nope, also not believable.

How about a young pass rusher who is already one of the best in the league, but coming off of a pretty serious incident, which could possibly lead to him being moved?

Enter, Myles Garrett.

I started everything off with a teaser, posting the title as "something is happening 👀" with the body that says "stay tuned"

This caught immediate attention, and people started going nuts. Shortly after, I posted a comment in the same post claiming there was a trade being worked on involving a big name, but i wouldn't clarify that name, or even if it was a player coming, or maybe even someone going.

Then, a few hours later I posted a BS "hint" that said "A Lannister always pays his debts" why? Because I was re-watching GOT at the time. Thats literally it. It had 0 meaning. I wanted to see people freak out and try to piece together a puzzle that secretly had half the pieces missing.

It was so much fun to watch this, most put together that The Lannister sigil is a golden lion...so that must mean it's a Lions player! This was quite amusing.

A few hours later I received a message from someone claiming to be with 950 KJR, a popular Seahawks radio station in Seattle, but it was from a new account made that same day with 0 Karma, so I ignored it.

A few minutes later i saw a comment from another user, saying KJR was talking on-air about trying to get me to come on the show, and I thought "oh &%$@, this is legit" and I messaged them back and we began talking. We agreed for me to come onto the show with them so I could finally reveal the name.

Afterwords, things really started to take off. The subreddit was going absolutely nuts thinking they traded for Myles Garrett, and it started getting local attention.

After things completely took off, it eventually calmed down and I revealed the truth... https://www.reddit.com/r/Seahawks/co...m_source=share
