Cray-Cray Twitter Catfight (brought to you by WiFeY WaTCh)

Apr 23 2013 10:39 AM

You might recall my expressing some unease with Met prospect HamiltonBennett's whacky, profane, tan, White-Sox-loving, Chili's waitressing girlfriend in this thread: [url]http://www.cranepoolforum.net/phpBB3/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=19172&p=503399&hilit=Hambone#p503399

She's quickly become the whackiest member of my small group of followees. Today I tune in to find her AT WAR with some other chick (apparently a family friend of the Hambones) who (purposefully? inadvertently?) opened up some raw feelings over girlyfriend's cool reception from Hambone's Mom and sister. Like them, I'm not sure I approve. Anyway following a catfight on Twitter (which has involved dozens of exchanges starting lat night) is next to impossible but here's the gist in a few whacky posts!

Rival:
I just hope you lose your craziness before he goes pro because that's a bad look


Girly:
Ohhhh I get it now. It's jealousy. You want in my boyfriend's pants. Sorry bout it.


Girly:
ill tell u what I told them-I'm not going anywhere~So if u plan on being in Hamilton's life, get REAL used to the idea of me


Rival:
it's not my fault your a crazy uniform chaser that doesn't seem to realize when she crossed the line ...


Girly:
u think there's a single thing about me I haven't already told Hamilton?think he doesn't know I've been w/other ballplayers?


What does Hambone think?

My girlfriend is the most amazing and beautiful woman I've ever met.


Stay tuned for more drama and heartbreak!

Nice of her to tell Hamilton that she has been with other players.......she's like your one in Bull Durham?

Things I want my girlfriend to do: Tell me if she's "been" with other players.

Things I'm not sure I want my girlfriend to do: Scream about it.

We were worried that Hammie might get involved with the wrong crowd in professional baseball — we're so pleased he met a Christian woman.

I just listened to about a 1/2 hour of Francesa (for maybe the first time in maybe a year or so) and he was all down on Twitter, like it's going to be the ruination of the nation. Mainly he seemed to be exorcised over Kobe's in-game Tweeting but there was also something about a Tweeted threat somewhere; 'Man, they gotta do something about Twitter' he says, without specifying who 'They' or what 'Something' might be.

I'm afraid this cat fight may just add fuel to his fire; we just can't have minor league ballplayers distracted like this.

Young lovers used to get along great before Twitter. Now it's all


It's my fault. For thinking I could ever be happy or deserved to have good in my life. I knew better than that.



All the confidence I had in myself is shattered. I feel myself slipping into a dark hole of sadness and self-hate. I'm too broken for this.

Yeah, I'm just realizing that now. She was really fighting with his sister the whole time. The other chick I quoted was more of a bystander.

And the shit they're arguing about is an insult to the expression Cray-Cray.

I mean...
Hamilton and I have already discussed that we WILL spank our children. AND, how WE parent is none of ur business!

But the sister (and the mom) aren't on Twitter, as far as I can tell. It's all subtweets from the gf about what a crazy bitch they are. The discussion -- which started very civilly last night -- is with a "family friend."

Re: Cray-Cray Twitter Catfight (brought to you by WiFeY WaTC

I think it boils down to hammy's gf's behavior on Twitter has her pegged as a Baseball Annie by well-meaning but graceless members of his family, and those suspicions are driving wedges between mother & son, brother & sister, etc. None of them have the good sense to keep it off Twitter.

Well, I wouldn't say slut, that's kinda harsh. She's more like, propped up with a degree of offputting false vanity that arouses suspicions of her motives. They're all tactless.

Re: Cray-Cray Twitter Catfight (brought to you by WiFeY WaTC

I gather whether she's latching on to the son to get a ride to the top* is at issue.

Two big turns in the dispute were (1) when a frenemy or two was (correctly, but less than tactfully) tweeting to her that if she's gonna make a better impression on his family, she should keep her crazy shit offline, and she went nuclear on her or them, calling her or them jealous, and (2) when she went from indignation to self-pity, either as a breakdown or new (and, again, tactless) strategy to garner sympathy, and started tweeting worse things about herself than anyone else had, including ugly alleged biographical details, and how unworthy she had ever been of @Ham_Bone28's Metlove in the first place.

Bennett, to his credit, has been as twittersilent as the grave. (Not that dead people don't tweet. They do!)

*As if that's a sure thing.

Matching-fMRI-wise, I suspect.

This reminds me of the time my cousin's crazy girlfriend (now crazy wife-- congrats, Jose!) got into a FB pissing match with him (for traveling with male relatives to celebrate a joint birthday) and his sisters... then ended it with a stiff-upper-lip, passive-aggressive, I-know-I'm-in-the-right-but-I'm-taking-the-high-road post on FB AND Tweet, because the best way to show you're above it all is with a classy public internet post.

I'm reminded of Mickey Ward's [Mark Wahlberg] pack of sisters and half-sisters in THE FIGHTER carping at what they saw as interference by his new girlfriend [Amy Adams] into "their" family business (ie. his boxing career). "It's that damn MTV girl"

Bennett gives up only his second run of the season. He doesn't get the loss, but it ends up being the difference as St. Loo loses 3-2.

If I read my twitter correctly, Cray-Cray Girlfriend has returned to Peoria, got a job selling cell phones at a Best Buy, quit drinking (enrolled in AA) and now is preggo with twins (not the team). Not sure if the daddy is a ballplayer or what. Still profanely hates on Tyler Flowers.

Meantime, Hambone has moved on, and how. Now married (!) to Kelly "Account Protected" Belle.



edit -- this WiFey appears to share a first name "Kelly" as the wifey referred to in that article linked above. So perhaps the whole Melissa thing was more sordid than we ever knew. Or maybe this is a different Kelly. Who knows with this guy. (Further snooping -- seems like a re-union). Ah young love.
