The actually story is not what the posters on the other thread with Agendas thought it was.
The media and fans need Cowboys to criticize. Since Michael didn't get much play time right away it looks like he is that guy.

Anything that feeds people's already formed assumptions about why Michael isn't getting 20 carries per game will be like gold around here.
So any story that calls him stupid, immature, or not a team player will be gospel. Even if the story isn't a story but a random Tweet with no real perspective.

So all was not what it seemed with the Michael/Linehan thing.

.. and this is why relying on twitter for news sucks. In the rush to beat other media, there's no editorial review or verification process in place for tweets which is why you see a ton of deleted tweets.

It's simply, "It looks like a duck, it's a duck, tell everyone I saw a freaking duck!"

Thing is...In the very next tweet following the tweet that was posted, it said that Michael was with trainers, along with a pic of him on the ground. As well as a tweet with him talking to Linehan chatting.

However, the other thread was already full of pitchforks and whatnot, I didn't bother posting that.

Its only threads about Jim Randle that people need to fully read before making assumptions

Welcome to the age of Social Media, where snap judgments are immediate, authoritative and ubiquitous. :(
