Coaches everywhere probably go through a daily sigh of disgust that they have to deal with the members of their team on with social media. Players just seem can’t stay away from addicting avenues such as Twitter and Instagram, and Mark Sanchez has apparently fallen victim yet again to the trap of social media.
Yahoo Sports is reporting that Sanchez received a tweet from a disgusted Jets fan wishing him a torn ACL. Now I’m sure lots of players receive nasty tweets all the time, but Sanchez with his infinite wisdom decided to respond with this:
Thanks for your support man! #classy RT @YOUNGSTOWN4LI4E .@Mark_Sanchez F*** YOU HOPE YOU TEAR YOUR ACL ON FRIDAY
— Mark Sanchez (@Mark_Sanchez) August 8, 2013
Someone clearly needs to either take Sanchez’s phone away from him or teach him the etiquette of being a high profile athelete. It just doesn’t make any sense for him to be responding to things like this, especially since his focus should be on reaffirming himself as the QB that the Jets need to his teammates, coaches and the fans of New York.
