Just checked it out - he literally tweeted about the Toaster of Tomorrow

Oh no he tweeted a promotion that gave 100% of the money raised to Canadian Tire Jumpstart to help the less fortunate afford to play sports.... what a jerk ! How could he !

 

[DisgruntledHawkFan]

Connor isn't tweeting any of this.

Aww yeah, this is the personality standard Sid should aspire to.

Connor McDavid can do whatever he wants.

Petty people will always find something to complain about.

Connor McDavid Needs to Stop Tweeting Product Endorsements.

Hey Noob usually when you have a contract with someone you usually want to promote their products.

Does any thought ever go into these things.

 

[Future GOAT]

Connor isn't tweeting any of this.

Yep. Usually they have an agent of some kind doing their tweeting/promoting thing for them in an official capacity.

 

[Jacky Brown]

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.

 

[BlackDogg]

He's now a toast mogul. He can do whatever he wants.

 

[Mr Positive]

I think the article has a point but dresses it up as too much of a diss.

It's mostly talking about the percentage of his tweets that are endorsements, not that he uses twitter for endorsemeents

It would benefit McDavid to tweet more stuff personally, to add a lot more of the tweets that people want in with the endorsement stuff. That would actually expand his twitter base by making following him more enjoyable, and he might even get more endorsement cash in the end.

heard he's a super cool guy around people he knows. I'd be uncomfortable with strangers grabbing me also lol.

jack238923 needs to stop making threads that are just links to the same website.

He has four posts and they are all topics with just a link to that website. Jack, you suck and your website sucks.

 

[maxbme]

I love hockey but man trying to police every thing players do and how they joke and act is so annoying and legitimately drives people away.

Obviously I'm not talking DUIs or domestic abuse, but McDavid is 20. He wants to let his publicist tweet endorsements for Clorox all day? Who cares?

 

[Dolemite]

Haters gonna hate

 

[Auston Marlander]

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

Having spent time with Mcdavid last summer I can tell you he does not have much of a personality. I mean he's a super nice guy, but was pretty boring.

 

[KlefDown]

Genuinely lost brain cells reading that article

maybe it's u?

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

That goes for most articles about the Oilers.

 

[GodEmperor]

Honestly the world is too PC for conservative leaning players to show personality, just look at the feels people caught because he dressed up as God Emperor Trump. Gained some respect for him, just like Matthews dismissed the kneeling nonsense, gonna be good to have him here in TO running show with Mats in some time.

 

[IamNotADancer]

Endorsements are part of an athlete's life. Time are changing and endorsements are now delivered differently. Doing it over Twitter where he can have a social media guy do it FOR him is actually much more beneficial since it won't take time away from his schedule.

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

 

[IamNotADancer]

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.

Oh you can't? Well, he DOES.. whatchu gonna do about it, huh!!??

If you're making toast without McDavid's face on it are you really even making toast?

I got the Gretzky toaster.

Is this sarcastic? Crosby has a 1,000 times more personality than McDull.

Not sure if I've ever even seen McDavid smile.

 

[Hobble]

You know that if Twitter was around when Gretzky was playing, he'd be tweeting about how Caspr is the best mattress he's ever slept on.

Hasn't smiled since summer of 2015.
