Ryan Gomes’ wife gets needlessly trolled on Twitter
I usually don't call reporters out on anything but Kelly Dwyer did a crap job of "reporting" this story. I know @EVilla83 personally. I did a radio show with him. I saw everything that went down on Twitter as it happened in real time. This is one of the worst pieces of journalism I've read. Did he even contact either of them to get their side? No. He just ASSUMED he knew the full story.

I hate this!
I am as critical as many on Gomes on this blog but this is rediculous. Gomes is a great guy off the court and his family should not be subjected to this. Boo him on the court if necessary but leave his personal life alone.

Kelly Dwyer is officially sweeping the basement for yahoo now.
Does he actually get to write about games anymore?

Yea me too
Like every single time people are just like, “Why don’t you just HANG YOURSELF Dwyer. What kind of name is KELLY?? I HATE YOUR FACE.”

I do get his wife

I met this dude at a Clippers game. He went out his way to scream my name as I was walking out. I introduced him to my daughter!
I mean, you want to be on “first name basis” with some of the Clippers then you have watch what you are saying. I would also be angry.

Does Matt Bonner still play?
And if we could trade Mo Williams for Troy Murphy, we could have a really consistent bench. (Consistent in that each bench player is the exact same guy.) This is how winning is done.

Yes Let's get Bonner, Murphy and McRoberts

This should not have been made into an article.
The situation blew up due to a couple of instigators and now Kelly Dwyer is only adding more fuel to the fire. His article is terrible, because there are a whole lot of assumptions that he is making that couldn’t be further from the truth.
I’ve seen fans get on certain players from time to time when they make a bad play and praise them when they make a good play. Usually if it is a bad comment, they don’t direct it toward the player “@playername”. This was a situation where the fan did not directly address the player nor his wife. An outsider said, “hey misses Gomes, look at what so & so said”. One of the clowns was happy that he had started something, which is stupid because it causes unnecessary drama. It gets the wife worked up, which then caused Ryan to get upset and address his “haters”. The team doesn’t really need all of that. We’re rolling.

that's exactly what happened
kidclipper was the guy Bill Simmons referenced in some recent article on a crazy trade suggestion…i believe he’s mentioned as crazy clippers fan.

Sounds like a ballsy chick

Gomes is nuts.
If this isn’t motivation to try harder, I don’t know what is. The things that astound me is that he uses the word “dominate” in regards to himself. Bro, try harder or deactivate your Twitter account.
And this KidClipper person is this super annoying fan I see at games. He’s always on Ralph’s facebook page. Jesse Beer something like that.
I recognized him when he yelled constantly at Clipper Games to Fire Dunleavy. The team sucked, and that wasn’t helping.

While I think Gomes has been terrible as a basketball player
I wish him and his family no ill will off the court.
Will be funny if the Clips add questionable character guy JR Smith who is a very talented player to replace very high character but untalented Gomes.
Help us Altered Beast you're our only hope.

Can you imagine if this non story became a real story?
When I am on twitter, I like reading what gomes says. He seems like he will have a future as a motivational speaker or as a religious figure.
Now I am gonna put on my kool aid glasses and hope this fires up Gomes.
I actually like Dwyer for one reason
He likes to stick it to Kobetards. Pretty sure Kobetards make up a large percentage of the negative comments.
