slabs Posted July 17, 2013 Posted July 17, 2013 Do I need to say more? Think before you type maybe?Tweets from Dr Evil and another.pdf dracs 1
Gambithunt Posted July 17, 2013 Posted July 17, 2013 (edited) Not sure what's funnier, the fact that they got caught out or that a SA cycling celeb took such of offense to it. Edited July 17, 2013 by Gambithunt
Bat-ass Posted July 17, 2013 Posted July 17, 2013 I say good for Robbie...... Social media is consuming people..... damned if you do, damned if you dont!!!Infact, right now im pretty anti all media... The the journo's are grilling Froome about doping? let the authorities do there testing work.. if a test is possitive then grill him, otherwise lets get on enjoying the tour....... its spoiling it for Froome and us.. Harryn, Big Wheel Cycles and varkie 3
dracs Posted July 17, 2013 Posted July 17, 2013 I agree. So many twitter hero - easy to throw things around that you wouldn't say to someone's face. Good on Hunter for calling Leon on it. Fact is he has always looked out for Daryl and played a big part in his career - so not surprised he would take some offense varkie 1
Nettie R Posted July 17, 2013 Posted July 17, 2013 Do I need to say more? Think before you type maybe?Or get your head out of the sand? It's old news that Hunter phoned Impey when he got the yellow.Thought Leon to be a bigger man than tweeting such rubbish.
Tumbleweed Posted July 17, 2013 Posted July 17, 2013 I love Twitter. A lot of people think they can say what they want without any consequence, but look at what happened to those FHM staffers.

How stupid can people be - and sportsman and journo's in particular seem to keep putting both feet in it~!
Epic Rookie Posted July 17, 2013 Posted July 17, 2013 (edited) Here's the FHM lesson: FHM now hiring?http://www.2oceansvi...-for-rape-joke/Social media is open to the public, I try not say things that I wouldn't say to someone's face, keep it clean. Edited July 17, 2013 by Epic Rookie
Tumbleweed Posted July 17, 2013 Posted July 17, 2013 ja that was mind boggling! How stupid can people be - and sportsman and journo's in particular seem to keep putting both feet in it~! Indeed! And journos can be annoying on social media. They've become - or at least think they have - bigger than the stories they cover. And it's such a dick-swinging between media "personalities" on Twitter!
Tumbleweed Posted July 17, 2013 Posted July 17, 2013 I actually read the BBC's social media policy for its staff this morning. Point 1a is summed up thus: "don't do anything stupid".
DJR Posted July 17, 2013 Posted July 17, 2013 ..................Thought Leon to be a bigger man than tweeting such rubbish.Me too. Hope he apologised in person and not just tweeted.
HappyMartin Posted July 17, 2013 Posted July 17, 2013 How could they not know Daryl and Robbie are mates? Real class!
Johan Bornman Posted July 17, 2013 Posted July 17, 2013 I've also had a run-in with Dr Evil who criticized me for something via all sorts of channels bar face-to-face. This was before the days of Twitter though.
Wayne Potgieter Posted July 17, 2013 Posted July 17, 2013 with a name like dr evil, he sounds charming. I must invite this person over for dinner.
pezulu Posted July 18, 2013 Posted July 18, 2013 ouch.Seems they got what they deserved.I just wonder why they didn't bother to reply.
