Why I Created the "Typical Yankees Fan" Tag
Curt Schilling tweeted congratulations to his daughter Gabby for getting accepted to Salve Regina University in Newport, Rhode Island where she will be playing softball.
As usual, the trolls had to chime in, two in particular. Hollywood (@primetime227) and The Sports Guru (@Nagels_Bagels) went back in forth with a series of vile tweets about her.
"Teach me your knuckleball technique so I can shove my first in your daughter."
"I'm sure she can fit a nice Easton in there as well for some DP."
"Curt bleeds more from his sock than Gabby does from her pussy when she's on her period."
"Curt rocked the mullet- business in front, part in back...Gabby prefers the party in the back. #ButtStuff2015"
Even though the last one is kind of funny, those are still terrible, horrible, no-good, very bad things to say -- about someone's daughter -- in a public forum -- fully intending for the target of the comments to read them.
To Schilling's credit he posted the entire thing on his blog and really went after them.
And in the end, he taught them an important lessons about trolling and consequences.
Adam Nagel has been suspended by Brookdale Community College.
"Hollywood" Sean MacDonald was a part-time ticket seller for the Yankees. He isn't anymore. The Yankees fired him immediately saying they "have zero tolerance for anything like this."
