    We need to bring Mad Max into some official role. He’s got a talent for trolling er Twitter/social media and is quite witted and a funny communicator.

    I hate to burst people's bubble but I know with great certainty that it's not actually mad max that posts all those tweets about Utah. Y'all are being bamboozled.

    What are you talking about? Anyways love seeing that fiery play from mad max dropping 51. Tragic how it ended the next year, but we won a ring with him and all is forgiven....rockets lifer.

    I'm just saying that all these tweets that folks are clamoring as the greatest ever aren't actually from mad max. He has a social media "manager" of sorts. I would say if you've never heard vernon say it in an interview, I wouldn't believe it in a tweet.

    Where’d you get that from? I didn’t think mad max had that type of ‘brand’ to get a social media manager. He was a noted trash talker, maybe he’s just a clever one?

    You ever hear Larry Legend in an interview? Comes off kind of shy and apathetic compared to the legends of his trash talking. Sometimes on the stage and in the battle, a different side comes out.

    I would be very surprised if a player who has been retired for twenty years and didn't manage to hold on to much of his earnings has a social media manager. Vernon declared bankruptcy in 1998. Who is paying for a social media manager and why?

    I agree, but it also doesn't really matter to me. If V-Max hired this good a social media manager just to troll Utah and not do much else on social media, that makes it even better, and Mad Max becomes the Twitter GOATer.

    That's why I put the manager in quotes. How the compensation works is probably through trade via merchandise promotions and event promotions. Plus the guys are fairly good friends so it wouldn't be out of norm to have a friend help out with that aspect. With a little hunting it wouldn't be hard to out who is posting a lot of those tweets.
