Connor McDavid Needs to Stop Tweeting Product Endorsements

[TheBeastCoast]

At least he's not Crosby. He's actually got a personality. Endorse away.

Wait....He does? When did he find a personality?

 

[CraigBillington]

Out of all the things in life to worry about, this is #245643 on my list.

Shouldn't even be that high on your list

 

[Jozay]

People really love to complain about anything.

Let Connor get the bag.

 

[Anglesmith]

Yeah the point they're making is, you can't only tweet endorsements. People don't follow an athlete because they were hoping to exclusively be sold things. Need balance.

Not sure I understand the motivation for Connor here. You're explaining why people might want more, not why Connor might want to do more.

I say endorse away, even though I miss the old school endorsement day:

We already knew he was an uninteresting robot.

 

[Cellee]

That is the longest article about nothing I've ever seen.

Honestly.

Crosby has never been on Twitter as far as I know.

 

[Cellee]

Seems like food an elite athlete would crush.

 

[Hennessy]

Yeah, he can do whatever he wants. It's still tacky. But the type of person who follows individual players on Twitter is most likely unaware of that.

 

[Freudian]

He seems like a pretty boring guy, so why would you want him to tweet other stuff. Just let him be good at hockey and a completely uninteresting guy outside of it.

Yep. The point people are missing (probably due to not actually reading any of the article) is that people will stop following him if all he does is advertise, and in turn, advertisers will stop paying him (as much) to advertise.

"Yeah what a shill that McDavid is man. Capitalist pig"

"Anywhere here's my article about it i hope u like it"

Hmmm

 

[JianYang]

Without opening it, if you don't like it, don't follow him. Simple as that.

 

[Woll Smoth]

Absolutely disgusting behavior by a player who should be the face of the NHL. I'm watching the oilers game right now and McDavid has plastered the boards with ads.

Sad!

 

[syz]

Advertising is the only thing Twitter is good for.

 

[Devil Dancer]

The only thing upsetting about this is I wasted my time reading that article and I gave that author a page hit.

 

[7even]

His public personality is deliberately comparable to the most interesting door knob you've ever spoken to.

I don't know why you would expect his twitter to be different.

Has me chuckling

This is a month-plus old article about nothing.
