Wrestling fans are easy targets for "journalists" looking for a buzz because they typically overreact and create a firestorm. It's a cheap, dirty, and unbecoming tactic. Just look at Cowherd.
This dude seems like a total idiot.

Never heard of the guy. Probably trying to get some attention. But to attack an 8 year old is pretty low.

He's spent the majority of his day hurling out personal insults and attacks on the appearances of the people retweeting and responding to him. Wonder if ESPN will have something to say about his behavior.

My tv is constantly on Epsn and I've literally never heard of this guy. He'll likely get fired for the comments about autism. Good. My son is autistic. It's hard on him, it's hard on the family. Nobody should be so callous. This writer could have just owned up to making a bad choice but instead doubled down. At that point I have no sympathy. When I was much younger I worked for people with autism. It was a very rewarding job, and I wish I had stuck with it really.

Sounds like a complete toolbag loser 100% this. But the marks who are replying to him on twitter are making me cringe.

There is no excuse to mocking an 8 year old and then making jokes about him being autistic. As a father of a 12 year old autistic son (oddly enough also named Owen) I got no time for pieces of s*** like this jack-off.

I honestly didn't know his son was autistic, but it's extremely low to bring a child in to any dispute or insult. This offends me more than anything Kaepernick has done or said. It'll be bullcrap if he doesn't lose his job.

What a piece of crap. God forbid his son is proud of something his father did. What has this bunghole done in life to make someone proud?

I know him. So idiotic that journalism still are with "umm wrestling is fake guys" in 2016, we get it Amin, you love your real sports from ESPN. The first tweet was just that lazy shot at wrestling but his tweets after that are just unprofessional, the dude was always very sarcastic and knowing his politic views plus how he is, there is a chance that if this gets out of control, Amin will play the race card to look as innocent as he can and save his legendary career.

To those of you saying this isn't a big deal, I can understand if you haven't experienced autism or any sort of paternal/maternal connection with children, but for those of us who have/do, this is terrible.
I own a theatre school and personally work with 96 children every week, I know each of them and their family members by name and have a personal and emotional connection with all of them. Many of them are dyspraxic, dyslexic, autistic etc and so this, to me, is extremely upsetting.
Dads are real unsung heroes, and Kevin Owens does an amazing job of proliferating the value of fatherhood - a role that is constantly undermined and diminished in our culture.
