Braden Gall/Jason Fitz
Dec 6, 2016, 4:28 PM
|
|
Braden reached out to me earlier today, and he said that Jason has been watching the reactions on his comments from the peeps here at TigerNet closely. That has earned me a date to be on the show tonight at 8:15 p.m. The show is College Sports Nation, and it's on Sirius/XM satellite radio. I will be talking with the guys about all things Clemson.
Also, and cross your fingers, I am hoping that Jason agrees to do an interview with us so we can delve a little deeper into his comments. Sound like a good idea?

Hartins this is 100% correct. Do not understand why people give trolls like this the time of day. It's kind of like when the jounge comes in to troll the mange and the mangers just line up to be trolled.
At least the lungers are funny!

not because of his Clemson related remarks, but because of something totally unrelated and something he has no control over, the fact that The Band Perry's fans suck.

Ask him why he lets comments on social media determine what group of young men he pulls for. I do not believe any of our players have said anything to him.

He may ask you to apologize for the jargon used by many on this board, or ask if you align your opinions with those of this board's members. But seriously, of all the college football programs, our fans bugged him enough on social media for him to speak up. That says something about us whether you think he is a crybaby or not. Do we want to be known as that fan base? It makes us look like the crybabies, with nothing better to do than harass people over spilt milk. Mr. Hood you have a chance to speak on behalf of our university. You can right the ship in Fitz eyes and change the opinion of thousands of Tigernetters alike. Put an end to people complaining about all this nonsense, about Deshaun not being worshipped as the greatest ever, about not being a favorite for the national championship, you name it. As Dabo always says, just worry about Clemson. Who cares what they say. We can only control what we can control.

Sounds like he won, he is getting the attention that he wanted, that we SHOULD not have given him. His bank account says thanks.
Looks like trolling pays - literally.
I really have no clue why Clemson people care what this guy has to say...

Thanks for the heads up DHood. I guess I will be tuning in at 8:15 - but just so's you know, that means I will have to go sit in my car to listen!
As for the interview with Braden ('don't call me Brandon'!) Gall and possibly a follow up with Fitz, y'know, I totally trust in you to take the high road and use your tact and (better) judgment when/if doing so.
Gotta agree, though, it appears 'we' have been trolled... honestly had NO clue who he (Fitz) was/is, or what the beef was all about until posted on here today. I'll also add that while some of us are and can be 'over the top' on occasion, but I listen to a LOT of XM84 - College Sports Nation, First Take, etc., etc., - and ALL of the fan bases can be pretty obnoxious, annoying and 'homers'.
Go represent Tiger Family for us!

My take is pretty simple...
The reaction on TigerNet and twitter is appalling to me. Death threats are never cool. I equate the hate-filled justification to criticizing a rape victim's clothing.
While many feel a constant flooding of hateful tweets are part of his job and he should ignore it, the cesspool of twitter (and sometimes TigerNet) is frustrating and not welcomed by anyone.
Side note, TigerNet has added features to filter out the hate through the years. Twitter is working on this feature.
While stereotyping Clemson fans isn't appropriate, this does serve as a great reminder that we shouldn't be jerks hiding behind keyboards. Anyone who is, or trying to justify this behavior, is simply not listening to Dabo. Clemson is way above this type of behavior.

death threats? Have you seen the actual exchange in question?
Dec 6, 2016, 5:49 PM
|

The only thing I heard was on his video where he aid that someone recommended he "go kill himself" over something about donuts. That's not the same as a death threat.
My two cents: I wouldn't tell Hood what to do but I don't think this guy deserves any validation and I hope David gives him none. His rant was that of a child and that truth is an issue for him to resolve. I'd just as soon not have to be subjected to anyone telling him how they understand that his feelings were hurt blah blah blah. He's an adult male so to humor him like that is pretty demeaning to everyone.
Anyway, best of luck with it.

I think we're still scraping the last self-important guy who did that off the walls in there...
I like to think of myself as a reasonable soul, and I would prefer Internet bantering remain light. That said, his contention that all Clemson fans were deserving of his disdain because he got into a rough Twitter battle seems pretty knee-jerk to me.
Get them to come down next fall and we'll kill them with kindness. I'll even bring the Krispy Kremes!

This is beyond absurd. I saw the show where the hosts were doing the emoji thing about a video clip. The clip was Clemson having Krispy Kreme donuts after defeating Wake Forest. Fitz simply took the stance that Dunkin Donuts were better. No anti-Clemson stance at all (anti-Krispy Kreme at the most). I thought it was funny. Personally, I would not mind a half dozen of each.
How it escalated to this point is ridiculous. Maybe that is I why I do not have a twitter account and follow nobody. Someone's random 140 character (or less) statement is of no interest to me. Of less interest to anyone on the face of the planet is any 140 character (or less) statement I might make. (This reply could be a perfect example, but too long.)
I guess I am old. I had email before Al Gore invented the internet. I have not kept pace. I am OK with that.

Dec 6, 2016, 9:02 PM

"news" and "updates" is far less the more genteel majority of CU fandom and more of a newer wave of fans and students, TNet included. Having said that, the younger media heads that dominate much of today's TV and talk are also more in tune with this, and are far more apt to hone in on the more salacious posts and ignore the others in terms of talking points, attention, ratings, and the paychecks that follow.
If this guy dissed Krispy Kreme it's only because he's never had the pleasure of having one fresh off the line while the Hot Now sign blazes. Make mine a half dozen KK's and 20 Munchkins.
Go Tigers!

Krispy Kreme tradition
Dec 6, 2016, 9:27 PM
|

While I can go both ways (KK vs Dunkin), we must have KK for Christmas morning breakfast (with coffee for the old folks). A tradition of sorts. Not "hot off the line" since I have to get them the day before, but they do the trick - couple dozen with the classics and the seasonal specials.
