Y’all get ready for some backlash coming soon


Apr 5, 2021, 4:56 PM

https://twitter.com/willcurrys/status/1378725393767800832?s=21

Someone posted this on Twitter from a church service it looks like talking about “commitment.”
The comments under the tweet is already flooding.
Might’ve been already posted but just saw it today.

I am confused.

It sounds like a pastor is using the example of high school football players verbally committing and drawing a parallel to commitment in the religious sense. What's the problem?

Who is this backlash supposedly being directed to?

Clemson doesn't care about basketball....as evidenced by Brown-L getting 14 years.


Sorry. I don't see where he said anything negative about

Clemson's football program.

I really don't understand why you guys hate JudgeKeller so much. Does it REALLY bother you to have one single person on this board who's fairly positive about basketball? Or is there something deeper I missed?

He’s not particularly positive about basketball. He’ll throw the players under the bus in a second. The only aspect of Clemson sports that he is positive about is Brad Brownell - who has never done anything but exceed all reasonable expectations in his opinion. Any of us that that don’t agree with him are terrible fans. He has said as much on numerous occasions.

It's all Dabo's and Trump's fault.

Who knows the context, but seems plausible that you


Apr 5, 2021, 5:08 PM

could use the notion of how guys throw around the word commitment and we've watered down what that word actually means.

Either way, no idea how that makes Clemson looks bad.

It's really really really weird for a grown man to be talking about 17-18 year olds college decisions as if it has some kind of religious meaning. Needs to get a grip.

Don’t mean to be judgmental but you may be sitting in the wrong church. Using college sports as your spiritual context is not the best way to get the point across from the pulpit or pastor. Before I get judged or flamed remember I did not start this topic.

So many examples in the Bible of commitment and lack of it. Eternal consequences. Using college decommits to illustrate a sermon point reveals guy who tries to grab the audience’s attention or he doesn’t know the Bible well enough for an illustration. Pretty bad situation. Billy Graham once stated 50% of pastors have not had an encounter with living God.

Btw I’m seeing no problem with this


Apr 5, 2021, 6:48 PM

But it’s all the comments that was posted is what I’m saying “backlash” every comment was basically hate and childish

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

don't read the comments then


Apr 5, 2021, 8:21 PM

you can post a photo of a daisy and there will be backlash and negative comments. People generally love to tear everything down to make them feel better about their pathetic, useless existence.

1 basketball player, but that is all. I guess Foreman too?

So... I have no idea why this photo was used, or if it really was used. That said it Foreman in the photo showing off his Tiger Tattoo whilst wearing Clemson swag. You know, before he signed with USC. Meh.. its him that has to live with it, maybe he just likes Tigers. Maybe USC has as many Nicknames/Mascots as the Auburn Tigers/War Eagles/Fighting squirrels!

Why would Clemson get backlash for something that happened at a church? Was Dabo, BV, or LH the pastor? Was this a service being held amongst the football team? If the answers to these questions are no or I don’t know then how in any way could there be any backlash.

id like to know the context


Apr 5, 2021, 11:24 PM

id wager the pastor didnt post it in a mean and disparaging way

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

That's kinda weird. Clemson Football is football, and not


Apr 5, 2021, 11:31 PM

tied to the meaning of Easter. Tying a commitment or de-commitment from an 18 year old on where to go to school to religion is stretching it.

Sorry, but you asked. It's not backlash, just my 2 cents worth...

There is nothing unusual about decommitments and portal transfers in this era. Everyone should get used to it.
