Newcomb got Josh Hader'd during his great game today and had to apologize for some ugly tweets from 2011 and 2012....
Josh Hader Twitter Controversy (and many other players)
- Thread starter Terry Yake
- Start date
Hader's tweets were much worse....newcomb basically just calling people bundles of sticks like a 12 year old

1) He was reciting Drake lyrics from a song that just recently came out
2) There is a massive difference in 'ga' and 'ger'

Newcomb's agent must be a moron. After the Hader incident happened, every professional sports agent should have had their assistants or themselves go through every single of their client's social media accounts to look for stuff like this. I'm sure a lot of agents did, but apparently not Newcomb's. Not that it excuses Newcomb or anyone else though.

Outcast is the way to go. Especially if you struggle in not being an idiot.
Just admit everything and sincerely apologize for your foolishness. People will never forget but they will forgive if you're serious.
Let's hope some Atlanta fans don't pull the same BS that Milwaukee did.

Social media isnt even social. All it is, is an obnoxious business platform where people willingly give up theitr personal info and then get subjected to ads of their interest. Its watching u. Thats how this big tech survives. Its all one thing. Just because people can argue on a keyboard doesnt make it social. All social media is, is an instant gratification of mild narcissism in a society that has become narcissist overall.
at this point people are just running scripts with keywords against a list of mlb player twitter and hoping something comes up.

I mean if your agent isn't immediately scrubbing all your old Tweets then they're not doing their job at this point. Now it seems as if the PC police are out in full force looking for more Josh Haders.

Trea Turner too.
Good lord.
And Merrifield is quite a bit older than these guys. Looks like he was 23 at time of his offensive tweet.

Honestly, I think most normal people don't give two craps about this and the more players they go after the less people will care.

yeah the entire stuff on the nats announcement is people saying who cares and they tired of this. apparently this all started when someone (apparently a nats fan) found the newcomb tweets so someone else (apparently a braves fan) revenged searched

He's telling a story of someone who said something offensive to him. I'm a Mets fan, he's a National, so I hate him. But people need to chill. this is incredibly stupid.
I'm way more offended by Trea Turner's inability to use contractions correctly than I am any of the things he tweeted.
