The players have been using Twitter to motivate themselves all year.  Obviously this can be a bad thing when they attack those who have doubted them.  Not that this is an excuse, but all season Iowa Western players have had to deal with other players/fans who keep telling them that they aren't serious contenders because they're from Iowa.  Trinity Valley didn't respect us and it obviously backfired (to the point that their whole season was ruined after the loss).  Georgia Military had mentioned time after time that they were gonna show us what Georgia football is all about...and they went home with their tails between their legs.  And Butler fans repeatedly said that we have no idea what's coming for us...In fact, the IW defense used comments from this forum ("IW is just like Hutch because their defense isn't very good") to add extra motivation for the championship game. 

So when you're constantly told that you can't do something, players will tend to lash out when they prove people wrong.  I just wish those that did would have done it in a more respectful manner.  There are a lot of other comments that I have read in this forum that I would LOVE to attack, but figure the damage has been done so I'll let you Butler fans off the hook.  Funny that some of the most active people on this site have been missing since Sunday's game!
