So the Washington Washington Football Team’s season didn’t end as planned.
None the matter; RGIII is optimistic about getting himself back in tip-top shape and is sharing his workout inspiration with his social media followers. No big deal, right?
Well, in the thick sea of fans who click the “like” button, everybody isn’t always going to agree.
It all began when the star quarterback posted a video of himself where he captioned, “Jamming to MJ on the way to get that work in this morning #BillyJean What you working with this morning?.”
Aside from the jockish butchering of “Billie Jean,” it was a harmless post until Instagram user, @cperezrn decided to rip him a new one for not being totally focused on his NFL career and the team’s struggle 4-12 season.

@cperezrn: This is why you will be cut after next year in Washington. You are a ‘QB.’ Act like one.
He cares more about his brand, social media than working in his craft,” he wrote. “After the 2016 season respond back to me if I am wrong. He will be cut by the Washington Football Team after those years. Brees, Brady, Rodgers, Manning don’t act this way.
@rgiii: Should I not enjoy a classic song with others who love MJ? I’m just asking for your wisdom here.
@cperezrn: It’s about the image @rgiii. Whether or not you are training trying to get better it’s all about how you present yourself. Your coach, owner doesn’t want to see you present yourself in this matter. Think about it for a minute. You grew up in a military family. I am also a military man. Ask your father, mother it’s how you present yourself.
@rgiii: And I’m presenting myself in a negative way by doing…what exactly?
@cperezrn: Never said you were presenting yourself in a ‘negative’ way. Just seems that you care more about your social media, commercials and brand than football. That’s all bud…Hope you prove your fans wrong.
@rgiii: I hear what you are saying, but for you to say those things to me is a sign that you don’t know what I am about and have been watching and listening to other people who have never even met me.
@cperezrn: I rest my case at least you understand what I’m trying to tell you and what your critics have said about you. It’s about how you present yourself. Of course we don’t know you. We know your social media, the commercials you make. That’s why I said act like the leader of your team. After you win a title no one can criticize you, but for now they do. Anyways, good luck to you.
@rgiii: No need to act like a leader, just gonna be one as always. The case you tried to make isn’t supported by anything I have done. Fun loving, motivation & football based commercials? Motivation and family related social media post?
@rgiii: Community events and gear going towards helping the community?
@cperezrn: If you were the leader of your team, why weren’t you mentioned as the future the other day. I’m not talking about your community involvement. Not criticizing that. I’m talking to you about the way you present yourself and many of your critics feel that you care more about your brand than football. That is ALL that I’m saying. I can be 100% wrong, even your teammates have said they aren’t sure about you. Think you have too much “DIVA” in you. Anyways I’m wrong you are right.
@rgiii: Military families have class, dignity & loyalty. I will maintain mine. You have not shown any of those. I will keep it that way and let you go right off my page God Bless
