Tweet Tweet

I just picked up a new iphone the other day and it has suckered me into the Twitter world. I never thought I would cave, but oh well, here I am. Been following a couple athletes this past week...thought I would like to share some of the decent tweets of the past week.

Chad Ocho Cinco:

• " I am triping, shhh Coles, Hendry, Caldwell, Simpson, Ocho Cincio=DMNDS!!!!"
  
• "DMNDS= don't make no damn sense, when something is awesome you label it dmnds, Halle Berry=dmnds yall get it, now use it in a sentence"


• "Me fighting @shawnemerriman DMNDS because I'd run circles around his tow left feet having a$$!!!"


• "How can @shawnemerriman fight me if his lights are out? DMNDS"
  

Terrell Owens:

• "Welcome back 2 the NFL mike!! God Bless!!
  
• (Jesus said,) "Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you the rest." MATTHEW 11:28
  
• "B back possibly on mon, i'll make sure things r back 2 normal@ I do apologize tht the fan enthusiasm has been down! LoL

T.O usually gives a inspirational tweet a day. He is so thoughtful.

Right now I am following Chad Ocho Cinco, Aaron Maybin, Lee Evans, Donte Whitner, Brian Moorman, Kawika Mitchell, T.O., and SHAQ. A weak cast of tweeters if you ask me. If any interest in someone particular to follow I am free to suggestions..

In-Game Tweeting on Their Twitters

With the recent comments by Ocho Cinco that he will be twittering in-game this season and a tennis player (whose name I didn't catch) apparently doing just that in a recent match (against Andy Roddick? Thought he was taking time off? This was on at about 7 a.m. on espn, forgive me for being confused)...it begs the question where do we draw the line? Shaq and Vill a no way va apparently tweeted in-game last season as well.

The thing is, to me, the only interesting potential of twitter is just this type of thing. I refuse to admit such a short attention span and look at anyone's, much less get my own twitter...but come on, tell me you really aren't interested in hearing what Ocho Cinco has to tweet in-game. Players obviously don't have the time to blog in-game, but a quick tweet would be possible and I'm sure of much interest to fans.

While I expect the NFL to configure some sort of rule that blocks a player from doing this, it might only be a matter of time before players are tweeting updates in-game. Mildly interesting development to follow I suppose.

6/19/2009: The Saddest day of millman's life.

After a fellow pewch revolution member tipped me off, and I was later able to confirm the news online. As the headline reads, today Friday June 19th marks the end of an era. It is all but official. My favorite Quarterback of all time, John Paul Losman appears to be headed out of the league and to the UFL to reunite with Jim Fassel (talk about a couple rejects flocking together).

I have touched on this earlier so won't pain you with my thoughts on JP other than the fact that this man is a NFL caliber backup quarterback at the very least. Extremely shocked he cannot find a roster spot on ANYONE's bench. I only hope to got he leads the Las Vegas squad to some serious UFL titles, comes back and takes the NFL by storm and finally hits his potential as a35 year old man.

Huck it. Chuck it. JP. Touchdown!!!(Best play ever added by the fact we had the MAN Gus Johnson calling the play)

Mulldog edit* Was anyone else watching / listening to Mike and Mike this morning? Mike Golic and Chad Ocho Cinco got into a bit of a twitter battle after Golic made a comment about how Ocho is always a problem like the rest of the Bungles. Well Chad tweeted him to shreds, I don't have an exact transcript but I think he challenged him to a fight; said he was going to go to the station and steal his (expletive) show; claimed Golic put back all the weight he lost (Nutrisystem commercial anyone?)...and then claimed he was going to bristol after camp, "they gettin disrespectful out there, child please." 8-5.

**Additional edit, Twitter is pewch. The day the Milldog and Mulldog start tweeting I hope you all boycott our blog.
