"Coach broke his phone with a hammer...."

I really hate the way some of our fans talk about our players. I've heard all manner of rationalizations made by the supposed adults who post insulting crap about players. But there is no valid excuse for anybody, especially a fan, to insult a player that's having a bad game. It's childish, classless, pure ******* behavior.

But for some reason, they feel they have the right to behave this way, I just don’t get it. It obviously affects them but some of our fans don’t care.

Yep. I don't get it either. Are the "fans", who are insulting the players, incapable of empathy? Sure seems that way.

It's a free country and if people want to be childish, self-absorbed, jerks, then they should go right ahead. Just don't try claiming it's acceptable behavior for well-adjusted adults. That just adds clueless to the other negative traits they're already exhibiting.

NOW I know why he didn't take my call about starting Simpson and moving Paul out to the wing.

I don’t know which narrative I like better…. Rock Fight or Pounding Phones.

Hello Rutgers message board, message on line one...

Sounds like this board

If RU makes a RUN in the NCAA, the "pounding phones" thing could be a story line picked up during the broadcasts..
signs, copycats, 5 minute features, who knows.. every tourney has a few of these..

I hope they don’t try to learn anything from us message board geniuses. Trust Pike to coach the team. Not kyk

Exactly. These kids trust Pike. Pike has earned their trust over and over again.

I heard that Mel Tucker is already rehearsing his phone hammering locker room bit.
