Story by Jenna Lemoncelli



Things weren’t easy for Haley Cavinder at the start of her relationship with Cowboys tight end Jake Ferguson.

The TCU women’s basketball guard recalled having a “mental breakdown” after she read comments attacking her appearance on social media when the news became public that she and Ferguson are dating.

“I was in Forever 21 having a great day with my mom and Hannah and I got this post and I just started looking at the comments about my face,” Haley recalled in a recent Q&A on YouTube with her sister, Hanna Cavinder.

Appetizing young love for sale
Love that's fresh and still unspoiled
Love that's only slightly soiled

Had a recent TCU Alum young lady move into my heighbothood. When I greeted her, I noticed that she was this orangy, yellowish color. I told my wife and 30 yo daughter that I Ithink she has a liver disease. My daughter later saw her out and told me...Dad, she has a spray on tan....

I just don’t see how this whole situation makes us a better team.

New York Post is basically a right leaning rag, but has pretty good sports reporting, especially if you are a fan of New York teams.
I get that not everyone has the same taste in women, but there is something wrong with anyone that calls the Cavinders ugly.

I think the last few episodes of The Office with Andy Bernard's character sums up what is happening in real life with younger generations. He just wanted to be famous for something and it didn't matter what. He ended up happy after the video of him throwing a fit went viral.

That kind of exposure sets people up for some very difficult situations because the internet is a very mean place. I am sure she is a great girl and I wish her the best in everything. As someone stated above, if your self-worth is based on social media posts, they can take you down just as easily. Someone who puts themselves out there as much as many young people do, must develop very thick skin because there are a ton of people who wish to tear down everyone.

Here’s betting there is some serious second-guessing going on in the athletic department right now.

Some advice from someone who was targeted by idiots on social media, albeit on a tiny scale: Just ignore the haters, Haley. Trust in yourself.

Why? She's just like most females that age. She just has a big audience.

Haley, take your phone over to the Rifle team. Have them put it down at the far end of the range.

Don't get another one. Be free.

I hear people often say how they are glad they did not have social media when they were kids. I have never heard anyone say they wished they had social media when they were a kid.

Pretty much sums up its true value.

I will say that I have rejoiced with many of my similarly aged compadres that we didn't have damned cameras in our hands at all times when we were younger and far more deranged...
