akzipper Posted February 24, 2013 Report Share Posted February 24, 2013 The pregame trash talking has already begun. We need to crush them Wednesday. 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?

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.

jc125409 Posted February 24, 2013 Report Share Posted February 24, 2013 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. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zippy5 Posted February 24, 2013 Report Share Posted February 24, 2013 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. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GP1 Posted February 24, 2013 Report Share Posted February 24, 2013 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. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Akron fans didn't start tweeting anything until after the OhioU dude called out Walsh. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, just pointing out that Reggie's teammate DJ has this on the Internet while Reggie is making fun of Walsh's appearance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zippy_ua_00 Posted February 24, 2013 Report Share Posted February 24, 2013 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 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

K92 Posted February 25, 2013 Report Share Posted February 25, 2013 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. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
