Detroit News baseball writer Lynn Henning is a kook. We all know he is losing it and his behavior on Twitter is becoming more bizarre and unhinged by the day.
On New Year’s Day, Henning broke out a new obsession and this one may be odder than his infatuation with Dave Dombrowski’s Cary Grant-like appearance.
For some reason, Henning was incensed about Baylor offensive coordinator Kendal Briles — the son of Bears’ head coach, Art. Why? Hey, just because I am living rent-free in Lynn’s head doesn’t mean I know what the fuck is going on up here.
Here were Mr. Imperfect’s Tweets during the Cotton Bowl ……
Think we need more Kendal Briles segments at Cotton Bowl. Only have had 15 minutes on him so far …

First quarter, a million yards in total offense: 14-14 at the Kendal Briles Boel.

MSU has ball, but ESPN will figure out how to work in Kendal Briles …

Great play mix today by Michigan State. No match for Kendal Briles’ genius, but effective …

Much at stake today at Cotton Bowl. Winner receives the coveted Kendal Briles Trophy.

Art Briles contemplating making Kendal Briles Baylor’s new defensive coordinator.

Six Tweets about the Briles family??!??!? WTF? But Henning wasn’t done just because the Cotton Bowl ended. His rant continued two days later ……
Art Briles was so busy repeating how “embarrassed” were he and Baylor on Thursday he sort of forgot to congratulate the team that won.
But just because the Michigan State/Baylor game was over, Henning didn’t stop his bizarre Briles Family diatribe. This continued two days later …..

Baylor, which apparently is coached by Art and Kendal Briles and no one else, got beat in a classic bowl game. No fun losing, but an epic.

@TTownTiger Agree. And so should Briles.

More Briles during the Lions/Cowboys game ….

And finally, this morning ….
Nice to see Mark Dantonio acknowledge Harbaugh’s presence. Am sure,Harbaugh was likewise impressed by MSU winning the Kendall Briles Bowl.

This latest Henning fetish should appear on the TLC show, “My Strange Addiction.” Ya know, the program that deals with women who want to have sex with the Eiffel Tower. Anyway, a DSR reader decided to question Lynn’s creepy infatuation with Art and Kendal Briles this morning ….
@rustbelthuddle They’re only creepy, I suppose, because Jeff has an attraction to him and feels threatened. — Lynn G. Henning (@Lynn_Henning) January 7, 2015
Yes, I have an attraction to Kendal Briles. Because …… ya know ….. I’ve never said one word about the guy. What the fuck is WRONG WITH THIS GUY?!?!?!? And I feel threatened? Not to mention, what the hell is with that veiled homophobic blast?
Of course, any Lynn nervous breakdown wouldn’t be complete without him accusing everyone on Twitter who thinks he is awful of being Poor ‘Ol Joffrey Must.

Now, I am not accusing Henning of being homophobic because of that asinine Tweet. I can’t really explain how I know that right now but the issue will probably become crystalized over the next couple of weeks.
No. He is very accepting of the LGBT community.
He’s just a fucking wacko.
