I wonder how Derrick feels about that tweet from Derrid.

Probably sad because his fingers aren't as fat

I used to take shit like this personal but honestly I just wish him the best.

I think he's mad that he had to pay for classes when he thought about going back to MSU. Not handed to him like the scholarship was.

Yeah the system is fucked Derrick. Water is wet.

There's been about 3x's where I thought about going back to school for some classes and when I saw the price tag I simply said 'fuck that'. School is a big rip off and he's not the only one upset about it. Sounds like his anger is a bit misguided.

RIP ta da love.

At some point something has to change, school bends pretty much everyone over and for a lot longer than 4 years

Yeah, if I was fresh out of highschool I’d just do those coding bootcamps and online tutorials. You can get a pretty good career for a fraction of the cost doing that shit.

I guarantee you he can call up to the the basketball office and attend just about any game he wants. Try being a working class shlub with student loan debt that's never going to go away.
Sorry you didn't maximize your opportunity when you had it, Derrick.

He did the thing.

My guess is he didn't get free football tickets on Saturday.

Which he could have got for free from anyone that was handing them out anyway.

This. Alternative methods of education. College isn’t for everyone and shouldn’t be.

He graduated.

This is just a guess on my part, but sounds like the only system that's fucked is the one that gives him free tickets to football games.

I'm pretty sure I could have got free tickets for Saturday and it wouldn't have took to much effort

Took no effort at all. Needed one for somebody. Asked a guy holding up 2 and he just gave me one.

Can you recommend one?

I'm sure there are instances but in this case it seems like Nix got his education for free and a chance to live his dream of playing professional basketball.

While in college he had the best of all things: tutors, clothes, food, traveled the world, played on national TV every week, girls, etc. Hell, he probably even had access to the best weed.

Sorry if I have a hard time seeing him as a victim.

Or maybe about interpreting tweets.
