BoMartinezSuh Posted October 27, 2013 Share Posted October 27, 2013 Pretty much anything goes on twitter. The last place I would go after a tough loss is twitter. Every fanbase has idiots. For all we know, a Minnesota fan made a fake twitter account pretending to be a Nebraska fan, and sent messages to Bell and others. If our players are juding our fanbase by what happens on twitter, then that is sad. Quote Link to comment
HuskerShark Posted October 27, 2013 Share Posted October 27, 2013 It's not about the fanbase. It's about idiots who feel entitled to say whatever they want to 18-23 year olds because they are hiding behind a computer screen. Every fanbase has them, and they all need kicked in the nuts. 2 Quote Link to comment
huskerfan92 Posted October 27, 2013 Share Posted October 27, 2013 Weren't our players banned from twitter before? What ever happened to that? Quote Link to comment

The only way they can shut people up is to win games. Responding to people on twitter only makes things worse. Quote Link to comment
Hujan Posted October 27, 2013 Share Posted October 27, 2013 Mentally weak players crying about fan dissatisfaction with their poor performance? Yet another way in which history from 2007 is repeating itself: http://usatoday30.usatoday.com/sports/college/football/2007-09-25-1242290647_x.htm Quote Link to comment
knapplc Posted October 28, 2013 Share Posted October 28, 2013 Hey, Hujan. Long time no see. I was also thinking about Corey McKeon, and thinking there's no way Kenny Bell turns into the Pelini Era's soundbite disaster. At least... I hope not. I really like Kenny. Quote Link to comment
zoogs Posted October 28, 2013 Share Posted October 28, 2013 Our fanbase is full of idiots, like any fanbase. A lot of people show poor judgment when they attack these kids on twitter. They deserve ll the flak they get for it. Players & coaches have to tune this out though, this comes with the territory. It's how you handle it. In the end nothing anyone will do is going to stop these guys from existing on Twitter. Successful teams don't let this stuff affect their play. 1 Quote Link to comment
Nebula Posted October 28, 2013 Share Posted October 28, 2013 Just thinking the same thing knapp...good to see Hujan make an appearence! I've wondered from time to time if we'd see you back. I always hoped so. Nice to see a damn good poster show back up on the Board. Quote Link to comment
EZ-E Posted October 28, 2013 Share Posted October 28, 2013 Players and coaches need to do their best to live above reproach. But being around their age, if someone spouted off through social media it would be hard for me not to say anything back. Some people though. They poke and point and pry and then when they get a reaction they cry foul. Quote Link to comment
