Classless Hawks

It is still there. One hawk fan defends Georges

I truly believe that if someone started a thread like that on this site, Chris or one of the many great moderators would have the decency to delete it. Am I wrong on that?

And the one Hawk fan defending Georges is being called a "clown fan in disguise". Kudos to the Hawk fan who is standing up to these idiots.
 
Do you have a link to these blogs? I would like to see this. HN had some bad threads, which is to be expected from them, but blogging about an injury takes it another step IMO.

The hawk fan base isn't blogging about the injury... Just a few of the jerks. Maybe as many as WE had with the racial crap and threatening Self. Like someone said earlier - they are us and we are them.

But the Hawk team is all gingers and we can all take glory in that...
 
Yep. They are disgusting. Again, they are part of the reason their team crumbled this year. Not many teams can say that, but Iowa can. Just disgusting.

Their fanbase sucks to the Clones and to their own players.

Looks like only a couple of idiots, that are are posting that.

THANK GOD stuff like that never occurs over hear. Whenever an Iowa player gets hurt, this board has always met it with empathy and sadness.:twitcy:
 
Whatever. Fans of Tournament* teams usually need something to make themselves feel better. Maybe they can win a tournament game next decade. I'm not at all surprised.
 
I wanted embiid to play so ignorant KU fans like yourself wouldn't come back and say the only reason why ISU won was because embiid was out.

The point being that there WAS a minority that was thrilled to see Embiid out with an injury. I am sure that every fan base has the same ignorant minority, Kansas included. But to start a post acting all high and mighty when this fan base has done the EXACT same thing is just begging for someone to point out the hypocrisy.
 
If I'm being honest, 95% of the Hawkeye posters on HN, HR, and the Scout site feel awful about Niang. Most of them are rooting for us. There are a few mouth breathers of course, but you'll find that here as well.

My mom was from Missouri, so "show me" these minority fans that were thrilled to see Embiid out.

Then all the more reason for the hawk fan base to demand that the thread be deleted.

I saw nobody actively excited to have a player injured. Maybe you saw something different than I did, but there is a fundamental difference between being excited about having your team taking advantage of a key player not playing, and celebrating over a player being injured because "that's what the fanbase deserves" as I, and others, have seen.
 
It looks like it is almost all just one guy called Doug that is probably a HS dropout posting from his Mother's basement in his underwear. As someone else said, there are idiot in every fanbase that give other fans a bad name.

Exactly. If you go to a UNC blog, they feel bad for the kid, but they don't ignore that this is a break for UNC. That is totally legit. Iowa isn't playing us or even still in the tourney. Some of them just root for anything bad to happen to us, including injuries.
 
As fun as scrolling through a month's worth of posts and threads sounds...

I really think you're just full of **** on this one. I know that Embiids injury was somewhat of a hot topic going into the big 12 tourney but I don't remember ever seeing anyone celebrating about his injury.
