I am curious how many of them are staged fake reactions for social media likes. [Reply]

I assume that someone screwed up, but I never saw any blocker anywhere near him.
yeah there was someone near him , that screwed up. .. poor guy had to own up to it on local news interviews too... [Reply]

I've had a couple of those. The Bad Call Brick. I was always afraid I'd throw it to hard and the TV would still break though. [Reply]

I have seen those. Also, I remember Denver fans doing that in the 70's
When I was in college, We got used to throwing things at the TV after a bad call for Iowa games. My roommate almost threw a hockey puck at the tv.
A friend stole a piece of plexi from the Student Union.
We put it in front of the TV. It was awesome. We could do Madden and it protected the TV.

They’re all contrived. The narcissism it takes to video yourself so you can post for as you said social media cred. You really only get a genuine resp from someone who doesn’t know they’re being recorded otherwise it’s all for show. [Reply]

Hard to tell which are real and which are staged for attention.
But yea I have had some pretty frustrating sports viewer moments in my life and I have never wanted to damage something in my own home. Crazy. [Reply]
