OT: Football Talk

I don’t disagree.

But 95% of those clowns would leave their jobs for a $2.00 an hour raise and not even give 2 weeks.

That’s the problem with our “fans” half said he sucked anyways… they are clowns.

This isn’t isolated to OU. It’s like that everywhere. Most fans are bandwagon and they jump at the first sign of trouble. I hate social media because everything is instant gratification. People have a stupid thought in their dumb heads and it comes out immediately on social media. Stupid.

It's not just on social media. People are just REALLY stupid and unhinged these days.

I served on a jury for the first time a couple of years ago (2021, I think). I was floored by how a room full of people couldn't think thru things logically. Not a difference of opinion, per se, just an inability to think thru and articulate basic thoughts. Scared the heck out of in terms of ever needing a jury of my peers to decide my fate.

It's always been that way before the money became visible, before the internet and social media. When a player leaves, fans blast them. When a player joins us after leaving another school, we defend them and embrace them. That's the nature of the beast.

seems like in the past....most players left because they weren't ever going to break into the starting lineup.
maybe i'm wrong but i thought stone would be a future starter and potential star.
not many too upset for instance...that arnold left.

I had a very similar experience and you’re right, it is very scary. I was blown away how some couldn’t think through basic logic without emotion. It’s sad.

Wasn’t it his mom that wanted him to go to other schools out of high school? Seems like he likes OU, but mom/family don’t.

His mom wanted him at Miami. She envisioned that south beach life.

I'm not one to get on social media and "publicly" rip kids, but they are getting paid a lot of money, so they are going to have to get used to it to some extent. Sorry, comes with the territory. You want an adult job, you gotta take the bad with the good.

Miss me with that. Grown men criticizing teenagers on social media is dickless regardless of who makes more money.
