Why are Clemson fans tweeting at fans of a 3-9 team?
Dec 25, 2015, 11:56 PM

Seriously guys just stop it. It's pretty annoying to look at Twitter and see Clemson fans battling with gamecock fans. One team is 13-0 and #1 and one is 3-9. Is it possible to have a wider gulf? Why don't we tweet at Louisiana Monroe fans while we are at it?
Just don't engage them, I don't see why they even deserve it.
Clemson Tom had been a big offender recently

When you have to Brag about what you have to the weak, it says to them that you don't feel you have as good as you think you have, bc if you did, why are you bragging to the weak about it. And if you stop bragging long enough about your self, you may hear others bragging about you.

I don't so much as brag , but I do occasionally toss a jab their way to remind them that the universe has fixed the inbalance . They have returned to the cold , damp basement ...and I as a Clemson fan enjoy turning on the A.C. down there once every so often ...just to listen to them bemoan their position , with a shiver .

2nd oldest rivalry in college football...

Records don't matter to many. It's the proximity of these coots and having to listen to them at work and when they hand you a happy meal. Some do enjoy the trash talk and at the end of the day, realize it's just entertainment...I wouldn't lose any sleep over it.
I've seen these pleas countless times on t-net. I can guarantee you, the trash talk will never end because 1) coots are mindless dolts and will always have the verbal diarrhea and 2) it would take half the fun out of being a competitive sport if everyone did golf claps and discouraged some harmless banter. When it reaches the level of violence, verbal abuse and the destruction of property...that's when it's gone too far.
I'm sorry man...it is what it is.

I guess guys like TIP just hasnt quite grasped what this year and last year has meant to Clemson fans. For FIVE FREAKING YEARS, that ignorant fan base rubbed in the face of EVERY CLEMSON FAN they could, whether its media, the grocery store, email, twitter, facebook, WHATEVER the method. Even at 3-9, the WORST fanbase in THE WORLD still go after Tiger fans with their idiocy and their smack talking, and YOU are offended that we give it back to them? Sorry, its our turn and I take every chance I get to dig a little more. They CONSTANTLY put our coach down, our players down, our school down, and more so, the fans down. Maybe you live under a rock, or out of state and dont have to listen to those dumba$$ coots, and thats good for you, but dont come in here judging Clemson fans on giving crap back to the chicken farm down in cootlumbia. Makes you sound like you have a few feathers showing yourself.

I don't do tweeting at coots, but when I post an article or something about my Tigers....and the coots just have to show up....hell yeah I'm laying the smack back on them.
It's very rare that a coot doesn't have something to say when I make a post about my Tigers.

Same on fb. I'll say something about the Tigers, and has absolutely nothing to do with coots, but they'll show up like cockroaches.
The other day one showed up talking crap about our schedule. I simply said "if your team loses to the Citadel, I don't think you have any room to talk smack about schedules."
He didn't respond.

Honestly, I dislike everything about the coot nation. As ashamed as I am to admit, I have several coot family members that I can't stand to be around for more than 30 seconds, idiots. Even though they irk me, I don't EVER engage in conversation with any coot. My neighbor, a coot, his wife and kid came over the night of the ACCCG to a drop in. Actually, I am no way confrontational but this guy brought out the worst in me. He was sitting in my living room saying to anyone within earshot how much he hated Clemson and after about 30 minutes of that he said jokingly " I think I might have pi$$ed you off" to which I quickly replied, "yes you might be right" he left about 5 minutes later. Funny, he hasn't spoken, waved or even let his child come over to play since. For those wondering why he was even here, let's just say he came uninvited. I hope he never darkens my door again.
All that is to say, I don't get all the bantering and taunting back and forth. It's not fun, it's annoying actually but there are some Clemson fans that are absolutely on the same level as the coots and I suspect these are the ones that engage in such foolishness. These are, by the way, the same Tigernet members that see coots behind every post they slightly disagree because they are being trolls on the coot boards. The best way to handle a coot is to ignore them because of their terminal delusional condition,you can never win. It's like dealing with a less intelligent Forest Gump day-in and day-out, exhausting.

I took the pizza and tipped him $5. It was the largest tip he had ever received.

Good one! That's about the only way I want or expect a coot to be at my doorstep again! At 54, I have just reached my tolerance for overt stupidity. Dealing with them falls under the category of things I say "Life is way too short!"

I had/have an ex-wife that is EXACTLY like dealing with a coot. Delusional, irrational, well, just plain stupid. The old saying is very true that you can't have a rational conversation with an irrational person.
In both cases, I just refuse to have any conversation because it always gets twisted around and off topic.
Go Tigers!!

Be sure to include their new rallying cry in your Tweets.

I agree the gap has never been wider. We don't scuffle with The Citadel about who's the better team. Why do it with a team that can't even compete in the Southern Conference much less the Southeastern Conference.

Because it's a rivalry. Because we had to hear about t for 5 straight years. If CT wants to tweet at them and make jabs, so be it. I'd much rather have him on our side than that idiot they have. Everytime I see a gamecock say something on Facebook or Twitter, you bet your ### I'll remind them about having 3 wins.

Well first we endured 5 years of bullchit from them so I don't see how a few jabs hurts anything.
Secondly, I think a lot of those people tweet at Clemson Tom first and he just fires retorts.
Either way I don't really see a problem or it as a big deal.
