And now for something completely different...
Instead of making this about the Mets players performance, I am devoting this post to fans interacting with celebrities and professional athletes, something I am very much in favor of and truly enjoy the experience.
My list of people that I follow on Twitter is downright ridiculous but you know what, I have a blast interracting with people that I have never spoken to face to face. Pauley Perrette and Michael Weatherly of NCIS, Peter Gallagher and Christopher Gorham of Covert Affairs are all very engaging, I have had several tweet conversations with all of them.
Justin Turner and Matt Harvey of the Mets are two of my favorite people to interract with, and now they even have Dillon Gee on Twitter with the fans.
They love posting pictures and encouraging fans for Q & A sessions during their down times, waiting for a plane, or even a long bus ride.
Even things such as asking advice for stadium music or twitter pictures is something that these guys ask from their fans and followers, they truly enjoy putting pictures on instagram and sharing it with their followers.
Some players are too private and would not go on Twitter, and that is fine, that is their feeling on the topic. Other celebs may not interract because lets face it, people can be cruel and abusive if they are so inclined, and that ruins the dynamic of this person putting themself out there for the public.
Josh Thole, now in the Toronto Blue Jays system, was on Twitter but many fans were beyond cruel to him, criticizing and personal bashing, which is uncalled for, it is a shame that people can be such keyboard cowards.
I say that because they use Twitter and other social media outlets to say nasty things to people that they would never have the nerve to say to their face, so they hide behind the keyboard and try to stir up trouble. This is very counterproductive, although all users can block and restrict people who are abusive, it really ruins the dynamic of cyber relationships.
Well have a great day everyone, Lets Go Mets and fry some fish!!
