This is so true.

If I was a player, I would never ever get on CB or search it. I also wouldn't have a Twitter account either. That is just me though. Maybe some players enjoy searching for garbage about them to motivate. It wouldn't work that way for me though.

We're not unique in that. Not excusing it, but we're pretty tame in comparison - mainly because curse words and

the byu fanbase is definitely nicer in all ways to coaches and players.

CB shouldn't name players but players also shouldn't search CB...

Also know that player's parents also search CB for what the public is saying

after a bad game or a loss they should know to avoid cb.
