Neither of us understood what ESPN's intention of plastering this particular character on their site, especially when Spring is NFL's offseason.
After reading the site, the only I can think of is the "haiku" theme. Even with that, why didn't ESPN just use 俳句?

Roth is correct about they are simplified Chinese characters, however I really doubt his last name is 疼闹扑权.
