Title: My son Will
Post by: ShannonSprads on April 25, 2013, 10:24:27 AM
I told myself I'd never post on a message board. But the rumors that I've heard going around that the KSU fanbase hates my son is just too much. I'm about sick of K-Staters getting on Will's ass every day. You know absolutely NOTHING about my son, myself, or anything else that goes on with the basketball program. Will didn't force Frank out, and neither did I. Coach Martin left for his own reasons, not because of any threat from myself or Will. So it digusts me that Kansas State fans ride Will so hard for no reason. Is it because he's white? Will works harder than anyone I've ever watched or coached in my life. He plays a high amount of minutes, and he's played hurt the last 2 years, so yes, there are going to be some struggles. No one got on Shane his first two years. Or JO. Will may not be super athletic, but my God he works his ass off. To make fun of his acne is also sickening. Spracne? Come on. Will is extremely self conscious about it, have you ever thought of that? Will has does everything the right way for Kansas State. Please grow up, K-State fans. It's getting rough ridin' ridiculous.

-Shannon

Do you, as parents, have a nickname for Will? Sorry for the Will haters, they probably just had really high hopes for him when he was a freshman and are disappointed that he hasn't progressed. I don't think that means they hate him as a person. As for you, you're a man, you can handle the hate.

If my son played, I would probably never read one either.*

I think his dad's name is Shannon.  K-State fans aren't hard on Will because he's white, it is because his dad has a girl's name.

I was named after my great-great-grandfather. But fine, you guys can be 6 years old and make fun of my name. Just don't direct it towards Will.

This is a really weird publicity stunt. Why not do this at the peak of Will hating? the season's over, we are melting down about oscar losing the team, Will is pretty much out of the spotlight. until now, Shannon.

Same reason we liked Martin better then Weber.  Martin was just less white then Weber.

interestingly, shannon did post on ksufans when we got a commit from Will. he didn't say he was his dad or had any connection to him though. he just said he thought he had better ability than people were giving him credit for. most of the posters were actually making fun of him for being an awkward white kid. shannon didn't post anything very controversial or anything.

Post by: slobber on April 25, 2013, 10:44:30 AM
Shannon, just so you are aware. People are referring you to as a "sock" because they think you are not really you. They think that somebody else has made a "sock puppet" on this blog and are just pretending to be you. For the record, I believe it really is you, and I am truly disappointed that your son has not made the improvements that most players make from their freshman to their junior year. I also think you have behaved like a dumbass in far more public places than a blog like goEMAW.com.

 please really be Shannon!

interesting, the old board seemed to have a pretty good number of parents stop in, especially during the recruiting stage. 

Even with some of the other fly by stops, parents seemed to take an odd defensive attitude.  Instead of explaining the situation or what their kid had to offer it was always oddly defensive.

very few parents will come on and start a topic, they usually respond to an existing thread - food for thought for the next sock

So does the guy at the end of the bench, but you don't see him playing or us criticizing him. Will is going to play the third most minutes at K-State ever. Given that, his production is abysmal and people are pissed.

Apology not accepted.......

As parents, we are role models for our kids, and cussing does not set a good example for our children....

Only a few times would it be considered "ok" to let the "F" word slip in front of our kids....

One:  when you are working on a project around the house, and nothing is going as planned, and you finally get frustrated, and just let out the "F" word, w/ your son/daughter next too you....

Two:  when you are walking through the house and step on something, in your bare feet, that your kids left on the floor, that would be ok to use the "F" word

Three:  Or, lets say you have a 1 year old Boston Terrier dog, and you have his toy in your hand, and he bites down on the toy, and bites into your hand, then that would be appropriate to use the "F" word, cause let me tell you, that rough ridin' hurts..............

I also do not apologize for thinking you were Will's mom, cause a guy with a name like Shannon, is just, rough ridin' wierd............

And i care about Will. I care about him sooooo much. BUT, if he doesn't get better, I'm going to mush his face.

Ps, can i have his PSN handle?  I'd like to play call of duty with him online.

Maybe you should spend less time on the message boards and more time boarding Will's shots in the practice facility? Some of those ducks he's throwing up don't even have a prayer of going in...
