Trash Can Tip
I'm sure this was discussed somewhere in another thread, but I haven't been on here much since the game... what was up with that?
Great time to be a BOBCAT!

Re: Trash Can Tip
Hilarious. I wish there was a good gif of it.
Don't let this distract you from the fact that the griz blew a 22-0 lead.

If it got eGriz' panties in a twist, all I'll say is that I wish Tommy had gone further and hurled the garbage can into the stands.duelalumnicat wrote: ↑Wed Jan 08, 2025 4:15 pmThe UM and NDSU fans think the trash can tip is a big deal.

Re: Trash Can Tip
Should he have done it? Na, probably not.
Is it a big deal? Not in the slightest.
People are overreacting to this in a big way. Not necessarily on here but the little I saw on FB and insta was comical.

Well, if you're a dUMb fan, what else do you have to talk about? Your team hasn't played a game in a hot minute...duelalumnicat wrote: ↑Wed Jan 08, 2025 4:15 pmThe UM and NDSU fans think the trash can tip is a big deal.

I thought it was great. Literally the “meanest” thing he has done his entire life.

Re: Trash Can Tip
It’s just people trying to find anyway to diminish this guys character. If that’s the worst thing you can find about Tommy to bash his character, then people are setting the bar to some unrealistic level. It’s easy to lose character out of frustration but look how he’s carried himself in victories and that tells it all.

Re: Trash Can Tip
I’ll bet if Cam Miller did it, there would be people here talking about how classless it was, and how Tommy would never do that.

Re: Trash Can Tip
Only if he did it at a player or staff member. There was no one in the line of fire. I would've laughed if Cam did the same thing.BelligerentBobcat wrote: ↑Wed Jan 08, 2025 4:26 pmI’ll bet if Cam Miller did it, there would be people here talking about how classless it was, and how Tommy would never do that.

Re: Trash Can Tip
Guys do things like slam their helmets or tip over benches in frustration all the time. It's not like the time that DB lowered his shoulder into Tacos helmet & didnt draw a flag.BelligerentBobcat wrote: ↑Wed Jan 08, 2025 4:26 pmI’ll bet if Cam Miller did it, there would be people here talking about how classless it was, and how Tommy would never do that.
Tommy did a really kinda funny minor little thing out of frustration. Whatever.

Re: Trash Can Tip
I'm in the same boat, don't care. I just asked the question to if there was any back story to it, i.e. something one of the players said to him when he ran that far out of bounds. Was just out of character for him is why I asked.BelligerentBobcat wrote: ↑Wed Jan 08, 2025 4:30 pmI never said I thought it was a big deal.

Re: Trash Can Tip
I thought it was pretty funny. But it was definitely out of character for Tommy. And with how much attention it's received on social media, I bet he regrets doing it now.
Some people are a lot like slinkies....... Not really good for much, but it puts a smile on your face to watch them fall down a set of stairs.

Re: Trash Can Tip
I saw it and didn’t think it was a very big deal. You can’t take the Butte out of the boy after all. But I will say, with 100% certainty, if this was Robby Hauck who did this same thing you guys would lose your gosh damn collective minds over it and there would be a 15 page thread on it.
