Mookie Jones’ twitter account is active – and for all the wrong reasons – yet again.
Although he didn‚Äôt play in the win over Providence, Mookie Jones still had plenty to tweet about. If you‚Äôve followed Jones’ tweets and Facebook like we have, you know that he‚Äôs bound to say something interesting.
Last season he fired off, “coach don’t give a s*** about me and evreybody no it.” Fast forward to Tuesday which started simply enough (all Tweets sic’d):
‚ÄúNo matter who you are.the right system can turn you from a roll player into a superstar.I’m talking rock bottom.‚Äù
Sounds like he could be talking about himself there. Going from a three-point specialist to something more? James Southerland has certainly started to do that this season.
That led to Danny Parkins of The Score 1260 prompting his followers to take a look at Mookie’s latest tweet.
“It says I cant retweet it for some reason but check out @mookie21jones latest on how the right system can turn u from a role player 2 a star”
That didn’t make Mr. Jones very happy:
“@DannyParkins why you telling people what I said”
It‚Äôs laughable that Mookie ¬†- with 835 followers at the time – would ask that question. His account is protected, but still allows nearly 1,000 people to see what he says publicly. Obviously those followers can show other people as well. There is no code of silence embedded with Mookie’s tweets. Danny‚Äôs response was logical:
‚Äú@mookie21jones BC I’m not tellin people anything you didn’t already say yourself man, twitter is public.‚Äù
Mookie’s response?
“@DannyParkins well you just got a puclic block.i dont even no you”
It seems as though Mr. Jones does not frequent AM 1260 on his radio dial here in Syracuse.
Later on Mookie spouted off again, but directed it at no one in particular:
‚ÄúI realize there are jerks that just like f—ing with people for fun.like homies.I don’t even play much.why you jocking me.#CanILive‚Äù
A fan under the handle @ottotheorange tweeted to Mookie, “If you don’t want people to know what your saying, then don’t post it on Twitter.Danny is just doing his job.” Jones responded¬†‚ÄúF— you.”
Do we get his frustration? Yes. He‚Äôs made his “should I stay or should I go?” mindset public on Facebook several times. He’s obviously not playing significant minutes. But as a high-profile figure, you‚Äôve got to realize the effects of what you say. And that those words are public.
He only has to look across his own locker room to see one player who got rid of his account all together recently after saying some regrettable things.
Jay Wright at Villanova has prohibited his players from using Facebook and Twitter altogether until the end of the season. It’s not because of anything specific the players said, but because their conversations were being taken out of context online.
Joking about sexual assault – not funny.
Saying ‚ÄúF— you‚Äù to a fan – not appropriate.
Someone on the team or in a higher position needs to tell Jones people can see what you write. It’s not only a distraction to you and your team, but potentially an embarrassment as well.
A social media ban isn’t necessary if players can handle themselves responsibly in that sphere. So far this season with Mookie Jones, that hasn’t been the case.

Woah! I’m really digging the template/theme of this blog. It’s simple, yet effective. A lot of times it’s very difficult to get that “perfect balance” between user friendliness and appearance. I must say you have done a superb job with this. In addition, the blog loads very fast for me on Opera. Exceptional Blog!
I don’t know whether it’s just me or if perhaps everybody else encountering problems with your blog. It appears as if some of the written text on your content are running off the screen. Can somebody else please comment and let me know if this is happening to them too? This might be a problem with my internet browser because I’ve had this happen before. Many thanks
Wow that was odd. I just wrote an very long comment but after I clicked submit my comment didn’t appear. Grrrr… well I’m not writing all that over again. Anyways, just wanted to say wonderful blog!
Today, I went to the beach with my kids. I found a sea shell and gave it to my 4 year old daughter and said “You can hear the ocean if you put this to your ear.” She placed the shell to her ear and screamed. There was a hermit crab inside and it pinched her ear. She never wants to go back! LoL I know this is completely off topic but I had to tell someone!
You are a very clever individual!
