    Your sarcasm is neither funny nor poignant. Try a new schtick for once. Like constructively talking about the Browns.

    I wasn't trying to be funny. I was letting you know how ridiculous your position is on it. I don't know if kids growing up now are just made of Charmin and presume everyone else is or should be as influenced by what someone says on social media as they tend to feel. Others didn't grow up with needing everyone to tell them how they are wonderful and unique snowflakes.

    You are trying to be funny. I realize the attempts are so lame that you now have to deny it to save face, but you would be better served by just admitting it.

    Your generation didn't grow up with social media so your comments on it are from a position of ignorance. If you can tell me where I said or even implied that they need to be told they're special or anything close to it, I'd be shocked. There's a difference between just not bashing a guy for every. little. thing. he. does. (despite him actually playing ok) and coddling him. You can only see extremes and not the shades of gray. But then again people like that is what weak sarcasm is for.

    My generation, however, did grow up with social media and not only do I work in the field, I also played Division 1 collegiate football...so I feel like my opinion on the matter comes from a position of experience.

    To be an athlete at any sort of advanced level, you have to have a thick skin. To be an athlete at the professional level requires a skin tenfold thicker. Every move will be scrutinized and every mistake, regardless of size, will be blown out of proportion.

    If Gilbert is truly getting the yips from what he's reading on Twitter, he shouldn't be a professional athlete. It's no different than not making the cut due to a lack of talent or lack of willpower.

    Is that fix what you really wanted to say?

    Yup. Thanks.

  • I think threads got merged and l got confused, but someone said something about K. Williams way back yonder. Like a comparison thing to Gilbert.

    I haven't heard much about him this camp though. I know he's hamstrung right now, but has anyone heard how he was doing before that?

    I had it in the back of my mind he was going to have a breakout year but just haven't heard much about him.

    You and Choco sure do read a lot into things even if they aren't there. Also, I am in my early 30s so I definitely grew up with social media but I guess I missed the beginning of the "everyone's opinion effects me" wave of thinking.

    I wasn't the one trying to say that what fans and sports writers say is effecting Gilbert. If he can't be an adult and tune out distractions then he is in for a rough life. Ultimately it will be his talent level and work ethich, not what some fans think of him, that will determine how far he goes.

  • Kinda like how you read the whole cuddling and telling him he's special (or whatever it was you said; not worth scrolling up for on mobile)....

    The memes in the media definitely bleed into the locker room and the coach's thinking. Gilbert also has to do interviews routinely. You guys are acting as though he's being scrutinized fairly and the same as anyone else would, and he's not.

    If you are picked in the first, you will have more expectations of you. That is plain and simple. If you come in and even have teammates talking about how you need to grow up, then I don't think any following scrutiny from media members or fans should be shocking. That said, he shouldn't be concerned with the opinions of anyone outside of that locker room.

  • FFS, have we really devolved to the point where it's being argued that Gilbert's disappointing

    play is due to the meanie comments on social media? Gilbert's play and focus are being

    disrupted because the neanderthal crotchety graybeards on the Browns Board aren't being

    positive enough in their comments?

    We've been invaded by the vaginas from Oberlin College.

    Oberlin is one of the best colleges in the country....you could only wish that you could have attended there.

    Hey man, Gilbert might read this and be very upset. You just caused him to get burned on a post route.
