Johnny Manziel put a Twitter hater in place by throwing down the ultimate trump card — a picture of his Heisman Trophy.
Manziel received attention this weekend for getting kicked out of one Texas fraternity party and for wearing a Tim Tebow New York Jets jersey to another. Anytime Manziel is in headlines for what he does off the field, he receives a big reaction on social media. And it sure seems like he thrives off the online hate.
The Texas A&M quarterback has admitted that he responds to people on Twitter out of boredom, which may have been his motivation for responding to another hater on Sunday. Manziel sent a series of tweets seemingly intended to quell the grumbling regarding his off-field life.
Last time I checked double digit win columns and championships are what matters.

"Just Win, Baby"

After one Twitter hater told Manziel that he had a “lucky year” and isn’t going to do s— this season, the quarterback sent a solid response.
That is called “scoreboard.”
I really think that Manziel just gets enjoyment out of all this. We go through the same drill regularly — people complain about Manziel’s off-field behavior, he says all that matters is what happens on the field, and then he responds personally to his haters.
Is there another collegiate athlete who will be facing more pressure than him entering the upcoming season?
