So Amare And Me7o May Be Beefing Online Like Teenage Girls. Or Maybe Not, I Don't Know
Well this is fun. Apparently Amare’s comments from yesterday have sparked a good old fashioned, especially lame RG3-esque fight on social media. Or they just like tweeting/Instagramming like assholes while Me7o continues to ruin the number 7. What was once Mickey Mantle’s hollowed number and the future name of a Costanza baby has been reduced to a simple “L” on social media. Anyway, I hate to drop a “back in my day” here, but back in my day, if you were beefing with a player, he or the team’s enforcer would fold you in half and then wipe the floor with your head. I mean look what Karl Malone did to Isiah Thomas. And that’s just because Zeke dropped 44 points on John Stockton following Thomas getting snubbed for the Dream Team for Stockton.
No subliminal, cryptic tweets or anything. People were all about that action, boss. Now it’s a bunch of nonsense like the Man From St. Ives riddle in Die Hard 3. Stupid, dumb shit.
Meanwhile, LeBron just went with an old school subtweet using standard issue Twitter letters. Something to be said for going vintage when trying to vaguely get your point across to someone via the Internet.
And I don’t even know what to make of Melo’s #B7ackHistory hashtag. But I am not even going to come close to touching that one. That’s another blog for another time by another blogger (most likely KFC, to be honest).
