The Tony Basilio Show

"Speaking of Jarrett Guarantano, he sent out a tweet after the Super Bowl which has since been deleted, where he said Tom Brady was the greatest QB of all-time. A lot of folks gave this young man hell online about that comment. Look folks, I love Peyton Manning. Peyton will always be near and dear to our hearts. Guarantano will even tell you Peyton was his favorite player growing up and a big reason he signed with Tennessee, but don't slam the young man for saying Brady is the greatest. Do you really think his tweet was off-base? Brady has been to 7 Super Bowls and has 5 rings. The proof is in the pudding."


When will it end?

Lol grown men berating a kid because he doesn't like their favorite player quite as much as they do.

The definition of pathetic. Grow up.

Every fan base has dumba$$ fans that make the rest of us look bad. But the majority of fans don't do that and there is just as good of a chance it's other rival fanbases disguising as fans of another team. Unfortunately nobody can do anything about that. Unless you are related to the kid,friend of the family or their age nobody has business posting on their social media anyway.

I'm not a twitter user, or user of any other social media platform that gives me direct contact with someone, so can someone help me understand something? Surely there is some feature that allows JG to not see tweets from people he doesn't know? Why do people allow friends or followers from people they don't know?

If someone puts @"yournamehere", you'll receive the tweet in your timeline. Our they retweet your original message with their message attached. Either way, you'll see it.

Not a VFL!

All UT fans must defend Manning at all costs...even if it means keyboard ripping the potential new starter for the Vols. IT'S MANNING for cryin' out loud!

Why do you assume the offenders are "grown men"? I also don't do social media, but one would assume both Twitter and Facebook have a substantial number of young and/or female users. Just like volnation appears to be heavily populated with young users, I assume it's just as likely some of the responses were from "kids" just like JG? Or does that not fit the narrative you're trying to put forth?

Brady is a great player. But, I like how all of the arguments on his side come from TEAM accomplishments. He had a greater CAREER than Peyton because of those team accomplishments. But, they don't necessarily make him a greater QB.

Peyton took four different coaches to the Super Bowl, only one of which was worth a d@mn. That says more to me than a QB who went to more playing for the greatest HC of all time.

Just my opinion.

Its funny but idiots on social media are usually grown men. Especially in this case as most teenagers would easily think that Brady is the best QB ever. Also, I have read articles about the younger generations looking for other forms of social media because facebook and twitter have been taken over by the older generations. I don't know too many women that will engage in an argument of Brady / Manning.

See, this is why we can't have nice things. If we had more fans with 5 star hearts, this crap wouldn't be happening.

Disagree younger kids will not worship Manning as older fans will.

Lol...I have the narrative?

So you're telling me you think kids who never saw Manning take a snap as a Vol are the ones so passionately defending Manning?

You can't fathom that the ones that are doing this are probably the same guys that still complain that Manning didn't win the Heisman 20 years ago? I'm sure there are a ton of 18 year olds just chomping mad about that.

So yes, you're right, where would I ever get an idea that it was "grown men" getting their panties in a wad over this? Also, you just admitted you don't do social media, so how would you even know who the users are?
