Not saying peak Ninja couldn’t have done this, but I feel this would’ve had more weight if he had just given props to Kai without inserting himself into the convo. Timing is everything.
@RGIII
No discredit to NDSU, but it’s not like this was a close game vs Georgia or LSU. They squeaked by an FCS school. Pump the brakes until they play bigger teams
This whole Doc situation is proof that the internet is like a shark tasting blood in the water. ONE guy said something and everyone takes it for a fact with absolutely zero evidence.
These kind of accusations can bury someone, even if they’re false.
People suck.
On Friday evening we became aware of an allegation against one of our co-founder’s Guy Beahm aka Dr Disrespect.
We assumed his innocence and began speaking with parties involved. And in order to maintain our principles and standards as a studio and individuals, we needed to act.
@Twitch
No i think it was perfectly clear. There’s no confusion. There��s no ambiguity. You have lost touch with the creators making you money.
Expect a mass exodus from your platform
My stance on The Doc in unwavering:
If he’s guilty, then he needs to be castrated and sentenced to life in solitude.
HOWEVER
If he’s innocent, then holy mother of all that’s good, what the hell is the internet up to?
@THECYBERWICK
@DrDisrespect
I mean, it doesn’t get clearer than this. He admitted to inappropriately messaging a minor. Legal or not, dude is a creep and deserves every ounce of hatred and disownment
Whew... Twitter has been a shitstorm the last 72 hours...
I've been called a pedo, a pedo defender, a ride-or-die loyalist, and a bunch of other things from this whole Doc situation, simply from my stance to wait before casting judgment on Doc.
All I want is the truth, but
@iTzNotChase
@Dexerto
I definitely see that, and with that perspective it kinda pulls at the ol’ heartstrings. I know Ninja has had major success, but seeing people reflect on their choices and think “but I could’ve been better” transcends finances.
@CultureCrave
See this sucks. Idris Elba is a certified BA in every role he's been cast in, yet NOW his skin color is an issue? People need to grow up. Idris would be freakin' legendary as Mr Bond.
My thoughts on the Doc situation are simply this:
If you message a minor inappropriately, regardless of severity or intent, I will not support you.
That just about sums it up, don’t you think?
@Shane_Pretty24
I would never throw it out of the realm of possibility. It just seems insanely out of pocket to do this when the public has absolutely no knowledge of what actually happened.
@original_otis
All of the “evidence” has been nothing more than he-said-she-said.
I understand that NDAs are a thing, but sooner or later Twitch (probably Amazon, being their parent company) will release the NDA at some point, right? This has gotten so big in a short amount of time.
Why not

I want to say this in the most respectful way possible, but I’m sorry. This entire letter/declaration is a farce if you include this statement in the screenshot, and then demand that others “be held accountable for their actions” when all they did was express an opinion.
I’m
@DynamicsRJG
The response didn’t do him any favors, but to say that it’s almost certainly true is a hard stretch for me to believe. If he did it using Twitch’s whispers, how on earth did Doc convince Twitch to pay out the rest of his contract? Questions like that make me skeptical but the
@D1scordgiveaway
Ehhhhhhh while that may be true, it’s still very much illegal in states where the age of consent is 18, and heavily frowned upon pretty much everywhere else.
Let’s not forget to mention, the Doc is married and has a daughter.

I mean if you wanna cherry-pick QBs, I can do it too:
CJ Stroud - Ohio State
Joe Burrow - LSU
Justin Herbert - Oregon
Jalen Hurts - Alabama
Big name schools don’t guarantee success, but they sure do help
@RGIII
Accountability. There is ZERO accountability when officials make the wrong call, impacting games to the point where the only explanation is that it's fixed/rigged.
@NickSchwagerNFL
I dunno. On the one hand, yes it was PAINFUL watching it dink. On the other hand, 58 yards is tough for any kicker, but for Demeco to have faith in him after missing the 50-yarder is exactly why we love him as a coach.

Imagine taking your raising your sub prices, then "discounting" them to the same price they were before, but only if you buy 5 or more at a time.
Crooks, actually
@colinurbuddy
It could be, but here’s the way I personally see it. Either:
A) they jumped the gun and banished an innocent man
or
B) if he’s guilty, I don’t want anything to do with anything he’s had his hands on

@RGIII
Talent may not always come from big teams, but talent shows up for big team games. This was not a big team game (again, no intentional disrespect towards NDSU) that would be worthy of crowning them BOTH top-5 talent. Hunter would be the only one I’d consider that caliber. Sanders
Couldn’t have said it better myself. I hope he’s innocent, for his sake and for the sake of any potential victim
But if he’s guilty, I hope he and anyone else that kept this under wraps for years faces the harshest punishment possible without hesitation.
I keep hearing rumors that today we will get more details on the Dr Disrespect situation. Hopefully this isn’t more “trust me bro” sources. If Doc is vindicated, I will be elated. However, if it’s proven that Doc was sexting minors, and engaged in criminal behavior. I will cease
Words cannot even begin to express how incredibly thankful I am for the community I have. From the raids, to the donations, to the shoutouts, shared links, or the extra thoughts/well wishes, I am constantly blown away by the love and support y'all have shown.

@DynamicsRJG
Well the guy on Twitter said he was sexting with a minor, which IS a felony, which would allow Twitch to break the contract with no repercussions. It’s all just a bit too coincidental here.
I know this may be cheesy and stupid but tonight, we crossed a major milestone: 1,000 followers on Twitch! Shoutout to everyone who has shown love and been a part of this little rink-a-dink family we've built. Here's to many more!
Weighed myself, and it turns out I just hit the 50-pounds-lost mark since the beginning of August 2023.
I want to look, feel, and live healthier than I ever have. I want to be able to keep up with my future kids, live long for my future family, be strong for myself.
So as a reward for being a Founder for Midnight Society, we get... nothing? No discounts, no driver keys, not even a Founders-only anything? I'm not usually the one asking for handouts, but rewarding those that believed in the vision from the beginning should have some
Hi. My name is Mark, and I have zero control over my sleep schedule.

Not doubting their qualifications.
A 5-star general can say that a dandelion is an undercover instrument of war, but though he’s qualified to distinguish what could be used in war, it doesn’t make it true.
The point is: we need FACTS. Not assumptions. Not interpretations.
This is the part of vacation that always sucks: saying goodbye to the homies as we all start to trickle back into our day to day lives.
