I do have a few players that I follow on Twitter, but I never interact with them. But I just read on KLM twitter and someone wrote this

better get movin that's yet another DE committed. D-line must not be showing out in practice."

all KLM wrote back was "really"

The guys on the team now are proven, and apart of the family already and bleed and sweat for this team, I sure hope that wasn't a real fan, or anyone on here

I have alot of commits/players on my facebook. I refuse to write to them, on their wall, or their status. But I will say that I have seen more than a few facebook avatars that match ones on this site. I would assume that its not all just coincidence.

The only facebook I really follow and comment on is the turning point.
I look at posting on an athletes facebook as the same as interrupting them while their eating.

^IMO its ok to post something like "hey great game" or "glad to see you beat SC" on twitter or facebook, but keep it at that, no need to get personal with someone you dont really know.

I don't want this to turn into an argument about right to post or friend on public social networking sites. We've been down that road. Back to topic.

If that was someone on here, one word. Idiot.

I feel like most posters on here are more educated as far as the teams progress, and we all have the upmost respect for any player in an Irish uniform.

As I said before, albeit not popular, I dont think grown men should be friending 17-20 year old athletes that they have never met. To each their own with that part, but reaching out to speak with them.. well thats inapropriate, and I think we can all agree on that.

Kap, one of my favorites dude! 99.9% of things said on facebook from fans to athletes is just bs, probably a fan of another program trying to rile people up.

KLM, Ian, and EJ are leaders of this team!

So, Diaco has a twitter account. Hell of a motivator.

KLM showed some class by ignoring such a remark. Lets give this current group some credit for mental/physical toughness-my hats off to them for the late season effort. Sometimes I just dont understand what people are thinking. This comment was bad. Facebook 'really people' is it that big of a deal. Dont diminish what these guys have accomplished. Not to quote Will Farrell but lets stay classy-Huh.

This is exactly why facebook and twitter shouldnt exist....people get way to caught up in it. But im sure people could say the same for me on this site

KLM has nothing to worry about, the Irish are building much needed depth at LB and DL. It will pay HUGE dividends in the future.

KLM actually had a great year.. in a lot of respects better than EJ besides the sack total. Both of them are going to be starters and big players next year. We all know Tuitt and Lynch are beastly prospects but EJ and KLM were pretty darn good prospects in their own right and played very well towards the end of the season.

I've got Twitter and am following most of the team. I comment on their post..sometimes they comment back and its pretty cool.
I never say anything negative or anything like what was posted here, only supportive, fun/funny, conversational stuff.
Hope to interact with them more. I'm also only 20yrs old.

All I can say is that anyone who would write a comment such as that to any player on our team is plain and simple a JACKASS!!!! First, I do not think anyone should be interacting with these guys on Facebook or Twitter or whatever. But, if they are going to, it should be only to express thanks, good game, good luck or some other general comment of encouragement.

For someone to tell a upper classmen who has played solid for two years that he better worry about an incoming high school player is just freakin stupid. Come on now!! I for one believe that Ishaq, Lynch and others will be great, but they are all going to find that nothing beats out 3 years experience and 3 years of conditioning.

In the end, stay away from the players and show some darn respect!!!

Doesn't this kind of degrade the word "friend" these days? Facebook has completely changed the meaning of the word "friend" and it's absolutely ridiculous. I, for one, have only my friends on facebook and casual acquaintances. I do keep my old high school peers on there too. It's just strange.

Jonesman as usual an appropriate and great comment.

First of all not everyone on this site is an "older guy".

Second of all not everyone on this site has a twitter of facebook page.

Third of all isn't it up to individuals to allow people to look or write on twitter or facebook sites.

I am a 34 year old guy, my wife and daughter are on facebook and I don't have a account. If these players don't want reactions, don't "friend" everyone who asks. As far as people who do be-friend these players......get a life. Unless you go to school or know them, STOP.

Hey Kra88y,
If they have been such a joke, suit up and let them bash your *** for a while. I bet you would look great trying to block these guys. Some of you guys who have never strapped up a helmet against guys like this have no idea.

Show some darn respect!!!
