I hope that we get a judge who isn't a Hulkamaniac. Watching Hogan slowly regret having to appear daily in court without a bandana talking about how he went on a racist rant will be great.

AJ Daulerio is such an idiot, texting Hulk the day the story released to rub it in, and previously tanking the deposition in the other case.

Hogan gets the money, uses it to start a wrestling promotion.

Give all the money to Daniel Bryan. Or possibly a charitable trust administered by John Cena, whose positronic brain will make good calls.

It's really impressive that someone can actually find a way to make themselves a bigger liability and more reviled than a celebrity who goes on an explicit, recorded, racist rant. If you had asked me before the trial, I wouldn't have thought it was possible without committing multiple violent felonies.

Essentially already happened. Defending the lawsuit has forced substantial changes to Gawker's ownership structure and likely has cost millions they'll never retrieve. Hogan will find the appellate court unfriendly for the third time, and likely walk away without any of the award from the first trial. The judge, who advanced this farce far further than it should have ever been, will likely go without any meaningful losses. Which is unfortunate.

If there's any merit to Hogan's claims here, he deserves a substantial award. Of course, if he actually had something, he'd have taken it to the ludicrously friendly judge for sanctions instead of waiting until now.

Yeah. That's going to be getting played in deposition prep across the country for the next decade. Along with a running update of where Daulerio's career is at. He went from getting millions in startup capital based mostly on his name to.... well, being unemployable mostly because of his name.

If Mel Gibson had a "New Media" bottomless douchebottle to sue in 2006 he'd have already made Passion of the Christ 2: Jewish Carpenters in Space by now.

the really funny thing to me about ajd is that before he left to do the ratter start up he basically proposed a change to the gawker media model where he'd have editorial oversight over most of their verticals and denton said he was too unreliable for such a position.

less than two years later gawker media did the exact thing ajd proposed.

Doesn't mean that Denton was wrong about Daulerio being too unreliable. I wouldn't trust him to manage a shoeshine.

I saw him in The Expendables 3 the other night and his lovely reputation really makes him a convincing bad guy. I kind of feel bad for Mel. He's legit mentally ill. If you want to go down the rabbit hole, Joel Esterhas wrote a short book about dealing with him and it's loving crazy. At one point he pulls Joel's pre-teen son aside for some friendly conversation and ends up telling him he wants to stab his ex-wife to death while raping her in the rear end.

Go watch "Payback" on Netflix, it's basically pure, uncut Mel before anyone seemed to know how nuts he was.

I've seen it. That character is way too calm. In Esterhas's book, Mel has this problem where he flies off into insane rages and throws what are essentially adult tantrums for hours. He alienated his whole family and first wife, then punched out and terrified his new one while she was holding their baby. To top it off, he and his dad are all-in on some crazy loving Christian cult his dad has been part of for decades. You've got mental illness, religious extremism, and being an untouchable celebrity with nobody to reel him in creating the perfect storm of insanity. Hulk Hogan is just a racist rear end in a top hat, Mel Gibson is a legit loving lunatic.
