    Crazyness, yes, not to proud. How did you find that btw?

    Frustrating but people react different ways when they are passionate about something. And when that something isnt having success it sucks.

    Karthik, the entire board would appreciate it if you'd be a bit more of a penis about this. This apologizing and wishing you could go back and reword your tweets gives us absolutely nothing to rant about.

    decided to see if any of our other players on twitter received any hate after the game, searched lscola4, yours was one of the few in English, I read it and thought "that's not too nice, oh look it says something about focus, got to be Ramathorn006's tweet"

    Didnt know you could do that. But yes now that we are going to start a winning streak I'm going to tweet a lot nicer things or not tweet at all usually.

    these guys get paid millions and most here are upset because a few fans tweeted them asking to do better? ha.

    and lowry shouldn't respond to those tweets, he should just keep his cool.

    I don't see the point in attacking a player, when basketball is won and lost as a team, a true fan would know.

    You should just vent on CF, rather then on twitter.

    Hope this DBag won't have Kyle thinking we all agree with him.

    Bring on Dallas.

    Starks' twitter would be full of win... I'll never forget this gem that popped out of his mouth: "Man, did this dude just did this?"

    I've never tweeted ever. But just in response to that tweet of KL earlier, I tweeted him something like:

    "We love yah, Kyle! Some fans just need to blow off steam after games. Great quarterbacking of the team tonight!"

    We should tweet our appreciation of our players whether we win or lose. To let them know we appreciate their hard work.
