I am glad no one is looking at my facebook and deciding to post it on a website for the world to see. Twitter is one thing, facebook is another! If you didn’t already know, a “friend” of Daniel Orton called him out in one of the comment sections of a personal facebook post. Now I would think that Daniel had to approve this person as his friend for him to gain access. Most players accept everyone’s request because they are players and they have fans, etc, etc. Well, when something negative comes up from a “fan”, and the player doesn’t like it, feelings get hurt.
I am [B]not defending[/B] the “fan” that posted the negative comments, because they were [I]terrible, [/I]but how is it making the situation any better posting the comments with the “fan’s” name and picture on a website for thousands more to see? Facebook requires people to approve their friends, unless the person doesn’t set up their account as private. Daniel Orton does have his setup for private. Is it really right to post negative comments from a fan on a UK player’s facebook to a public forum for all to see and hence creating a witch hunt? It was already posted on twitter, which probably a low percentage of people use anyway. Two wrongs don’t make it right.
It is going to be a rough couple of weeks for the “fan”, because the Big Blue Nation all knows who he is and what he looks like. Just think if Daniel had deleted the post and reported it to facebook, this would not be news. He didn’t though; he sent it to twitter, with the “fan’s” name and picture. Maybe he has that right since it was on his page. You have to remember he is just a kid.
I just think someone claiming to be the[B] owner[/B] of [I]The Worldwide Leader of Kentucky Blogs [/I]would be better than to help paint a larger bullseye on a guy’s chest.
