LOOK: Stetson Bennett claps back at radio show host over parade criticism
Georgia quarterback Stetson Bennett isn’t taking criticism of his attitude at the National Championship celebration parade lying down. The two-time National Championship-winning quarterback took to Twitter to clap back at Steak Shapiro over some comments the Atlanta radio show host made on Twitter.
“Mr Med Rare: One phone was mine. One phone was connected to the Bluetooth. Mine had the playlists. The other had the aux. I appreciate your concern with my image/intentions/loyalties/obligations (as wellas your willingness to reach out and confirm them), you obviously though quite deeply about some motives I might’ve had. To help you fill in some holes though can I give you the ‘inside’ scoop?”
“Parades are a symbol of celebration, and while last year’s was a celebration of that championship, this year’s parade was a celebration of a very special period of time (for me! Of course there is the possibility that I’m wrong). And while we as a team very much so appreciate the fans, we as individuals appreciate our teammates. Ya know, the ones that we’ve broken bones and torn ligaments and bled for, and cried, and changed, and grown, and laughed with for years now.
“So to help you fill in those damned holes: team (group) celebrates with fans (group) in big parage. Teammate (individual) celebrate with teammate (individual) in small personal car (sic). Guess which one I am. Teammate, yep! Knew you’d color quick. So to finish it off nice and neat: I was controlling the aux and playing bangers so Sed and Chris and I could have a blast on our last ride into Sanford

“P.s. I don’t like you very much Mr. Steak “and shake” Shapiro. But to be fair, I’m not a fan of your work, either.”
Those comments were in response to a tweet from Shapiro that had some pretty harsh criticisms.
“Stetson Bennett needed someone to tell him to get off his damn phone during a parade and to show some graciousness and appreciation to the fans that were sitting in that stadium. You want to crush the media you think you were mean to you do it a (sic) press conference.”
Bennett was also asked to speak along with those two players and really didn’t have much to say. He told those in attendance that the Bulldogs had plenty of doubters. He said that his success came down to doing what he thought was right every day and told the 2023 team that it had plenty of work ahead of it.
