Brandon Bostick receiving nasty Twitter messages from angry fans
If you ever wondered what it would have look like if Twitter were around when Bill Buckner or Scott Norwood were playing, look no further than this.
Green Bay Packers tight end Brandon Bostick will go down as a huge goat after dropping an onside kick by the Seahawks, allowing Seattle to get the ball back and score to take the lead in the NFC Championship Game.
As embarrassed and disappointed as he might have been, Bostick still spoke to the media after the game.
“If I would’ve did my job… the game would’ve been over,” he acknowledged.
Though many fans sent Bostick positive tweets and reminded him that it’s a team game and that he should not be taking full blame for the loss, there were many others who had nothing but nastiness to spew.
Below is a collection of some of those such tweets. Be warned — some of the angry folks tweeted some really nasty things involving bad language:
