Jabar Gaffney tells fan to kill himself

[ralaw]

Athletes need to be careful.....they have to understand what people are trying to do. We all know fans can say whatever they want to players, but it doesn't work the other way around.

I still don't understand why athletes have twitter accounts, it just shows how stupid they are. I also don't understand why anyone would follow Jabar Gaffney?

nobody involved cares, but i'm sure Roger will.

Most surprising part of this thread; DeAngelo Hall is in touch with reality.

I hate hearing about Freedom of Speech when dealing with public officials saying something stupid on social media. The FBI and CIA aren't the ones saying you shouldn't do it, it is your bosses.

yep and it's a dumb mentality.

i understand that the fans are customers and going at them is bad for business, but some customers are assholes. Pretty stupid how the media feeds into it and makes it an even bigger deal, why they asking Shan about this in a press conference. It's a non-issue, "kill yourself" is a throwaway insult.

I like how he calls fans dumb fucks but uses Thug talk in his tweets.

 

[Chrispy]

I understand why they have twitter accounts, but they don't even need to read tweets by other people. They can even have PR people manage their twitter accounts for them. So stupid.

If Jabar Gaffney has a personal PR person I might actually kill myself...

Goodell will have a field day with this- not just with Gaffney who didn't apologize for it, but also for Shanahan who just seems to act like its not a big deal and played the ignorance card. Not like its that big of a deal, but some sort of fine is going to come from this.

I think he just wants out of Washington...anyway he can get it.

WHY ARE ATHLETES ON TWITTER AND WHY DO THEY BOTHER ENGAGING TROLL FANS????????

I don't care about Gaffney telling the fan to kill himself, to me it's not a big deal, but ffs these players have to realize that everything gets overblown and twitter just isn't worth the fucking hassle.

@LilG27 now I can't say what I want bec I'll get in. Trouble if u fuck wit me set this boy straight please

He sounds no different then that kid Rush was trolling last night.

He's a millionaire professional athlete with a wife and kids, yet he's concerned with random people on Twitter? What an idiot, I hope he gets fined.

I like how he calls fans dumb fucks but uses Thug talk in his tweets.

sadly, that isnt thug talk so much as twitter talk.

he's just a professional athlete, this is less bothersome than me than political candidates and owners like Jim Irsay using language like "learn 2 speak u idiot".

jesus christ, speak in complete sentences or post on facebook with the higher character limit.

Josh Scobee needs to teach Gaffney how to Twitter.

Athletes love Twitter because it gives them their own forum ... and they don't have to deal with professional reporters. Reporters are looking better right now, don't you think Jabar?

Or Chris Kluwe........

Nope. The reporter that brought this up during Shanahan's press conference is a scumbag.

The reporter didn't write what Gaffney did.
