How to Deal With a Hater 101

[suttree]

Some guy here in Austin whom I don't know very well posted a sweet Facebook message for me out of nowhere, reading as follows:

"wonder if Syracuse will be seeded higher than 'Horns? oh yea Syracuse is in timeout this yr."

Brilliant. Classy. Delicate.

I didn't bother to comment, but rather posted a photo:

Let's see how he does with his response. Sometimes this stuff is just too easy.

Anybody else have stories to share?

It's the expression on Josh Pace's face that gets me every time.

That's the best possible rebuttal you could have made.

I'm the same way albany. I don't get too excited about many dunks but Hakim blew my mind numerous times.

Love your response! His message was pretty mild though. Better be prepared for worse.

The fact that Pace himself is jumping too shows you how impressed he was at that moment.

LOL. Texas was preseason top ten.

First off tell him FU for sending Greg Robinson from Texas DC to SU and then remind him his team is coached by Rick Barnes. Rick Barnes coaching your team calls for a career rooting for mediocrity and underachieving. For a team like Texas to become as irrelevant as it has become these past few years is indefensible.

 

[Briancuse]

Just show him a picture of Rick Barnes, that will shut him up quickly.

 

[kuethstheman]

One thing I'm planning to say a lot is "Shut up until you've read the report!".

 

[albanycuse]

He had to be one of the best plan B's in history. He proved better than Hodge too.

 

[jvbj01]

Ignore it.

"The funny thing is, both schools have the same chance of making the Final Four."

Dear God. Did anybody else see that horrible Texas meltdown, during which UT allowed Iowa State to score the last 12 straight points in the game, so the Horns could lose by two? No FGs for Texas in the last seven minutes, while the team played Iverson Milk & Iso Ball.

It is so tempting to get right back in that fool's face right now. But I will not kick a man while he's down.

Unless he's a Hoya.

Well played, sir. Well played indeed.

So totally agreed. This has been my desktop pic since it was published on the site du jour (ragman?). The first thing I always look at is Josh.

This reminds me when right after we won it all, I went to our to my car in our private work garage and saw a illegally parked car with a Longhorn decal in the back window. I went back to my office, printed out a copy of the pic, took out a Sharpie and wrote "HAK SAYS NO PARKING HERE!!" and placed it under the car's windshield wiper.

That's excellent. My only criticism would be that I'd rather have seen you write that message directly on the hood of the car. But you are a much classier act than I am.
