There have been OhioU fans on twitter talking trash for a few weeks. Kind of funny actually, they don't care about Akron yet talk about us 24/7?

The Akron fans have been talking a ton of smack on twitter to all the Ohio players for weeks. It goes both ways. As for that article, it fails to mention Walsh's tweet and Akron fans tweets. The "fan blog" called Ohio fans hill-people and then asked Akron fans to tweet at Reggie. Classy journalism. Journalism at its finest.

if you want to turn it into a journalism contest, you might have better luck than some of the basketball contests lately ;)

Just making a point that the article is a joke. Both sides were wrong to tweet about each other. Both fan bases looking like fools tweeting at the players.

Why are we supposed to care about what gets posted on Twitter? It brings out the worst in fans and is a source of evidence as to why athletes are really stupid in most cases.

No there is one clown in particular (probably you) who has been trashing Akron for about a month. Akron fans didn't start tweeting anything until after the OhioU dude called out Walsh.

The site is "akronsportsnow," what do you expect? One fan base looks like fools constantly crying on their rival's board. So there's that, I guess.

Bingo. I've also never seen the blog claim to have the high-end journalistic credibility.

At times, the perception of class suffers at the cost of accuracy.

First off, I'd like to mention that I love all the smack talk between teams and fans. That's what a rivalry will bring. I love the competitiveness. People here complain about the support for the team, but when there is smack talk between fans they complain. As long as its harmless I have no problem with any of it and encourage it

Btw, i'm loving this rivalry. It's too bad OU is going to drop off big time in the next few years.

Yes! Snarky, backhanded compliments are already popping up. That's the mark of a respectable rivalry.

They're not even our rival though.

Yes they are! The Attack U narrator referred to the Zips as the Bobcats' arch-rival at the end of the last episode. :rolleyes:
