You guys don't get it. The narrative is NOT that he's a sideways hat-wearing thug. Christ, I wish it was. He's not REMOTELY a thug even though it's painfully obvious he wants to be oh so badly.
The narrative is that he acts like a teenage girl trying to be "cool". He looks like an idiot--making up corny hashtags like #7tormscoming, talks about "haters" (a juvenile term if there ever was one), strategically positions headphones around his neck at press conferences to look cool. People do that stuff in grade school, and it's super embarrassing then. Even if he was 21 or 22 years old I'd probably look the other way or say he's gotta act his age soon. BUT HE'S ALMOST 30 for god's sake.
Any of my friends who root for other teams look at him as a joke. Not as thug. Not as a bad person. But as a teenage girl. And I don't want a teenage girl leading my team.
I hate to break it to you bub, but in his world he is cool. He's on GQ, Red Carpets, the hottest clubs, runs with an athletic and wealthy click and could easily hook up with chicks you and I could only dream of.
What was your definition of cool again...
