then after the uproar:

Bruce Irvin @ BIrvin_WVU11

I apologize to all the 12's and my wvu fam if I offended u didn't

mean to at all. So yea that's pretty much all the people that

matter.

So how did it backfire horribly?

he got bombarded with people calling him an idiot, got mad that people didn't find it funny (writing stuff like "shut up it was a joke" and "don't read my s*** then" before finally annoucing "I'm banning myself from Twitter the rest of day. U trolls have fun"

on top of that, he is now headline news for being an idiot:

Washington Post - Seahawks LB Bruce Irvin thinks joking about a fake DUI arrest is just the funniest April Fool’s joke ever

    • No, you're right. It doesn't mean you can't call out his flaws and poor play. But it also doesn't mean you can't admit when he plays well and shows improvement. Not you personally, just in general I mean.
    • I will say, I do think there's a version of Bryce that could be really successful as a high-volume passer in a spread-based offense built around quick throws and timing-based intermediate throws with deeper throws schemed up around them. I actually think the power run based offense we're running is a poor fit for Bryce as it requires him to play under center far more often. It's a very traditional offensive approach whereas I think a scheme that spreads defenses out and lets Bryce distribute the ball quickly with anticipation and accuracy is the sweet spot for him. The key, of course, is to find a way to run the ball efficiently out of those formations. Our personnel right now (backs and OL) aren't good fits for that style of offense and I'm not sure it's a scheme Dave Canales favors very much either.
    • I root for him, and I hope for the best, as does essentially everyone. But that doesn’t mean you can’t call out flaws and bad plays. And that’s what a lot of people get wrong.  I hope I’m wrong and that he continues to improve a lot, I just doubt it. But I’ve been wrong before
