A Boston College women's soccer player thought it would be funny to make jokes about Penn State on twitter.
Well it wasn't. It's one thing to think things or joke privately, it's another thing when you post it publicly, which is what you do if you are a Division I athlete with a Twitter or Facebook account. Nothing that you say is just to your friends, it's to the whole world, so don't forget that.

I'm not quite sure athletes understand just how dangerous it can be to post certain things publicly. Things can just be taken the wrong way.
