Please consider giving at We Will Collective.
Another thing to think about is the volume of tweets he gets. Whether it is positive, neutral, or negative. I don't know about you guys and I'm sure I'm on the other extreme, but I rarely get notifications and when I do get a lot I tend to get annoyed because it is interfering with what I'm actually doing. If I were Pollard I would have very little patience for stuff that is negative or otherwise rude. I would be annoyed by someone saying I'm doing a great job.
Also the Baylor thing people need to get over. Lazard said something similar. While they had an excuse for not showing up to that game, our fans have had excuses to not show up when it is freezing cold and still shown up. Also I don't know for sure, but Chris seemed to dispel the rumor that the Baylor account did not block Pollard.

Just my 2 cents. A power trip would involve forcing something on someone else. He's just refusing to listen to people that he views as excessively and needlessly negative.
Given the format of twitter, it's not a good medium for having a dialogue. It's more effective simply as a source of information.

The Baylor twitter account blocked Pollard thing. I was the one that first said it. But it was never meant to be taken seriously! But some people did.
This thread reminded me of the times when Bruce van de Velde used to come on these forums and get into p$$ing matches with other posters. Without ever admitting it was him.
I've got a list of minor to moderate complaints against Pollard. But compared to BVD.....

Huh, just found out I'm blocked by JP. Not sure whether I should be offended or impressed.
Seriously confused though, very curious now as to which Tweet would have gotten me blocked, as I don't typically get too negative (at least about ISU) on Twitter.

Sometimes I think people accidentally get blocked. For example, I'm blocked by Randy Peterson and I've literally never tweeted at him.
You shouldn't have voiced your displeasure about Miss Thailand getting in the top 5 at Miss Universe then. Everyone knows JP was a big Miss Thailand guy.
I've only been blocked (that I know of) by Jeff the Drunk from the Howard Stern show.....

I was blocked when I retweeted someone saying that Fred Hoiberg would have to personally knock on their door to get them to renew season football tickets.
Jamie think's he's so punk rock blocking people on twitter and then taunting them publicly about it on the radio. Oh yeah Jamie? I don't even have a twitter account. That's how much I hate society you simple newb.
