It appears Brent Skarky has a Lost Ogle mole among the contacts in his e-mail list. We were forwarded a 100% real email that he sent out before his matchup with Kelly Ogle. Here it is:

Subject: Do you believe in Miracles?…… Yes!
Well my friends its here… The Sweet 16 matchup with Kelly Ogle. If we were to post another miraculous upset, against the site’s namesake, image the despair, grief and fury that would insue for the 40 year old pasty guys that have never kissed a girl and live in their moms’ basements. Let’s make this happen. Go to the site.. Scroll down and vote. Vote for a miracle, a win for America.

It has come to my attention that the site is treating the Ackerman server as one vote. This will not stand.. This aggression against Kuwait will not stand. Let’s use this like we did our original 12 seed. Let’s make this motivation to beat another News 9 staffer. You must tell friends. You must vote again tonight at home. You must register your disdain on the comments part.
They said Dean was the dream, but against us, done. They said Toby’s nice guy m-o was unbeatable. See ya.. Now lets TCB against the leader of News 9.
We are way past speeches.. You have to be good to make it this far. How many times are we gunna pass the ball before we shoot? 5! Exactly.
Lets keep hope alive. Lets continue to wear the slipper, and win just one more for the Gipper.

Our thoughts are after the jump…
• Did Skarky just call us and Ogle Madness voters “40 year old pasty guys that have never kissed a girl and live in their moms’ basements.” What happened…did he get us confused with the people who watch a daily online travel “newscast” that’s filmed “live” at an Indian Casino?
• Why do Brett Stagnitti, Matt Park, Seth Joseph and Ted Achladis all appear in caps? Does Brent do this to separate his “special friends.” He also emailed this to “Tata Huckeby.” Call me crazy, but does that weird name seems to closely resemble the name of Shawnee native and former Bachelor contestant Tara Huckeby?
• Why did Ron Terrell not get this email?
• If I was an IT guy at Ackerman. I would definitely have a new email to add to the SPAM list.
Anyway, after we received this e-mail, it became apparent that the Ogle Madness Infractions Committee would have to convene to determine whether Skarky had broken any rules for soliciting votes, and if so, what the punishment should be.
At first we were just going to recommend a ban from appearing on television, but then we realized those sanctions had already been self-imposed. Now we may go for a full-scale ban from future post-season appearances. We will also subpeona his phone records, and if he’s been conspiring with Kelvin Sampson to exceed our strict regulations, his program may get the death penalty.
The Infractions Committee will meet over the summer to make a final sentence.
Until then, however, Skarky stays in the tournament and will face Lauren Richardson tomorrow. We do urge you to take this into account. Is it kind of awesome that The Skarker (his new nickname) cares enough about Ogle Madness to try and rig the voting? Or are you offended that he thinks we and our readers are 40-year-old pasty guys who have never kissed a girl?
Maybe you can talk about it in the comments.
on time Skanky hit on one of the girls who went with us to SKYY Bar(this was back when it was Studio 54 or something similar; I can’t remember the name). He was a total dueche; he even asked her “haven’t you seen me on tv?” as though he was bruce willis and not the backup koco sports guy.
I bet Suitors is the mole; no way would he befriend this tool.
I don’t think that there is anything wrong with soliciting votes,but if there was some kind of rigging with the i.p addresses and servers so people could vote more than once from the same location, then he should be punished, maybe making him watch his own “newscast” will surfice….
I don’t know if Brent is really a dueche, but I can attest to his status as a douche. That is the last nasty thing I will say about Brent, as I need access to his email list next week to encourage people to vote for me at rooftopcomedy.com’s College Comedy Competition.
He kind of strikes me as the type that would coerce Marry Fallon, Dean Blevins and the Diffee kid’s mom into a bizarre love triangle/square/trapazoid/rhombus…
Ouch..you just posted his personal email address in that screenshot
…and his phone number. Might want to black that out, fellas.
Yeah, guess we should have thought of that first. Sorry, Skark, hope none of the pasties bothered you…
Like its that hard to get his email address and phone number.
He hasn’t progressed too far from when he was a dorky kid calling my radio show to win baseball cards.
Although it is nice to see that he and Emily are still on speaking (or at least e-mailing) terms.
I think that phone number was for his business…in which case, the Yellow Pages should feel just as guilty as us.
As someone from Ackerman, I think all of the controversy has something to do with Hurly from Lost being in the picture with Brent up above.
I figure that is Tyler Suiters is the mole, then he should get to replace Skarks’ Elite Eight bid… Fair enough.
To find the mole, follow the money….
I’m curious as to whether Tony emailed any of his friends requesting votes in between Star Trek reruns. If he had, he might not have lost on his own website. I know having your own daily show doesn’t compare to having an anonymous blog that you share with two other guys, but at least Skarky is not afraid to show his face.
Lets guess who from The Skarker’s mass email is hiding under the ‘Shabby’ moniker.
I say it is either Christine Flores or Jason Peak. Any other guesses?
I’m pretty sure it’s Brent. Or maybe one of his ‘friends’ he picked up at the copa.
Personally, I think everyone should vote against Brent for suggesting Kelly Ogle is the leader of News 9. Brent must now fear the wrath of Gary.
Is there some possible way that I could cast a vote for entirely removing this bracket? Perhaps enabling us to give both a negative vote? Both of the idiots in question are, well, in spanish their called “El Douche Bago’s”
