re: Aggies, are you really a fan of JFF?

So much on JFF is blown out of perspective it is hard to even begin. A lot of it is just the culture we live in now with Twitter and instant celebrity. There is no privacy and everyone has an opinion and the ability to express it far more than ever before. When you look at Johnny, Honey Badger, Tebow, or Cam you have guys that people either love or love to hate. The media almost forces you to take sides by reporting on them nonstop.

As for Johnny specifically I will take the package with the warts. He still has stayed out of trouble with the law since his minor incident a year and a half ago. He speaks very well to the media. Oh, and he has been amazing on the football field. He needs to learn not to take the bait as easily when people try to rile him up on Twitter or on the football field but that's easier said than done. He's a guy that plays and lives with attitude and doesn't put up with crap.

Is he a douche? I have no idea, don't know the guy personally. I learned long ago though that you will typically be disappointed in sports heroes when you meet them. They are just people though. I don't know what the world would think of me if I were in their shoes, I know I have my moments when I'm not proud of my behavior.

I don't think Johnny has done much in the way of "embarrassing" A&M though. All I know is ESPN talks both positively and negatively more about A&M than ever before. It goes a lot deeper than Johnny as well if for no other reason than they need to have a new story. That's a good thing. I also just can't get too worked up about Johnny responding to a couple of guys trash talking to him by pointing at the scoreboard after he just threw his 3rd TD pass in a little over a quarter of play.
