Never Contact Prospects
Sometimes I hate social media, and its abuse by clueless morans. I just read an account of an absolute idiot. A Michigan fan who doesn't care for ANYTHING in Ohio didn't like the fact that DPJ is rooting for the Cavs to win over the Warriors. So he ended up getting in a twitter fight with a teenager. A prospect. This never ends well.
Moral of the story: never, ever, ever, under any circumstances, contact a recruit. Don't tell a recruit what to do. I hate this so much, I'd like for the mods here to out Wayne Bateman, and ban him from mgoblog, or send him deep, deep into Bolivia. Personally, I don't use twitter, and can't imagine trying to find a recruit with other forms of social media. Just horrible, irritating, wrong. Don't be that guy.
Edit: Here is a pic of Wayne Bateman before he took his twitter account down.
Edit 2: I believe his real name is Chris Grant, and he is from Lima, Ohio, or thereabouts.
This guy took a verbal beating from every Michigan fan awake when he tweeted it.
I checked his account out to see if it was some loser posing as a fan like that A&M guy but his account checks out. He's just an idiot that somehow thought that would be a good idea.
And he was replying to DPJ's tweet on liking Lebron. Seriously.

Obviously, he took some kind of beatdown, because he removed his twitter account. SMH, rolling my eyes, this is ludicrous. Total facepalm moment. Hope DPJ realizes that idiot fans exist in every fanbase. All I'll say is that Michigan isn't immune from having total idiot fans out there.
The endangered gorilla has to die, but this guy gets to live. In the wild, no less. There's no justice man. No justice.
This one time in London, I was walkin' through the streets of Soho in the rain, lookin' for his place. Got a big dish of beef chow mein there. . . . Sadly, I never got to meet his tailor. . . . Aaahoo!

Agreed, but you covered anything I'd be able to say about it and more. A+ comment, wish I could ^ as many times as is deserved.
Sorry. I was going to upvote, but first I had to finish the pina colada I was having a Trader Vic's.
Thanks for the compliments, father fisch. I'm a Scrabble fan, too. I'm also a T-shirt fan, a Warren Zevon fan, and happy to discover that a T-shirt with this logo is available for purchase. LINK
A bunghole is a term used historically with a keg of liquid, often beer. From Wikipedia:
A bunghole or bungehole is a hole bored in a liquid-tight barrel to remove contents. The hole is capped with a large cork-like object called a bung. Acceptable usage include other access points that may be capped with alternate materials providing an air- or water-tight access to other vessels.
And more:
Bungholes were first used on wooden barrels, and were typically bored by the purchaser of the barrel using a brace and bit. Bungholes can be bored in either head (end) of a barrel or in one of the staves (side). With the bung removed, a tapered faucet can be attached to aid with dispensing. When barrels full of a commodity were shipped, the recipient would often bore new bungholes of the most suitable size and placement rather than remove the existing bung. Wooden barrels manufactured by specialty firms today usually are bored by the maker with suitable bungholes, since the hobbyists who purchase them for the making of beer, wine, and fermented foods often do not have a suitable brace and bit
The slang use of "bunghole" was particularly popularized by Beevis and Butthead.
The more you know . . .
newstation is San Francisco that accidentally printed a "report" of the captains of a plane that crashed that included a flight attendant named "Ho Lee Fuk". I have the picture, but I decided against posting it because I didn't want people to think I condone that sort of thing. Just google Ho Lee Fuck plane crash if you want to see it.
probably the single funniest thing on Youtube. Also, Wee Too Lo.
List of good things that come from contacting recruits/current players:

Obligatory....
These people vote. I'm continually astounded at the pure stupidity of the average human.
Mr. Bateman, you're a bad person and you should feel bad. You don't, I'm sure. That makes me feel bad for humanity.

I think it's important to know what units of measurement we're dealing with here, so:
Is that a US shit ton or a metric shit ton?

But the comment above had used "average," and the line I used came from an old George Carlin bit.

Indeed
Actually there's a very good chance he doesn't vote.
the kind of thing that UM people do. SMH.
He looks like the living embodiment of a comment section.
Someone found his facebook. That should be interesting.

what a giant twat
I guess you can't take the Ohio out of a Michigan fan.
That "Walmart Skip Bayless" guy seems like a piece of work as well.
Bruce Wayne+Patrick Bateman for the alias.
I'll bet the Grant family is super proud of what's going on in their basement.
EDIT: ok, so I just noticed that "batman" was spelled out right next to it (albeit faintly, I say). I stand by my basement commentary.
For what it's worth though, the bat cave was in the basement
and technically, his mom's basement.
I cannot stand when turds like this guy talk to teenage boys like they are friends from the same neighborhood or something. Talking crap to a kid is one of the dumbest things you can do in person or online, and the only person that looks bad is you. Grow up, buddy.
Because, embarrassed could be misspelled purposely as a snarky way to comment on guys like Chris Grant, aka "Wayne Bateman." The whole "moran" and "Staee" thing.
I am old enough that sometimes snark and sarcasm go right past me. I hope you meant to do this. Because, if you didn't, this is the height of irony.
That tank would go good with jorts.
