    So we cannot be upset after a loss? If we were not true fans wouldnt even care if they lost. The players need to take a look in the mirror before the bash the fans.

    Taking on the fans works for every player. Creates nothing but good will and good vibes for the team and program. Good idea.

    Fans can be upset after losses...However, harassing players on Twitter after a loss is crossing a line IMO. That's one of the negative aspects of social media...Just my opinion, doesn't mean it is right. There's a difference though.

    Some people do take it a bit far. Attacking an amateur ath-a-lete! They need to go after Fred! He's a man! He's 40!

    OK the fans do need to show some respect to the players. Ripping them on Twitter does no good.

    Lots of butthurt to go around. It was CFHs worst loss since we needed to win before the next five games.
    Looking forward to CFH magic for the next bball season, Georges style.
