SI's Twitter Top 100

List is thankfully alphabetical so there won't be squabbles about ranking

Nice to see National Post Columnist Bruce Arthur on the list. Guy's as good a writer as anyone And funny as hell.

 

Any Twitter list that doesn't include The Iron Sheik loses all credibility with me.

 

Jay Glazer not worth dealing with all the MMA junk he tweets.

 

I agree.

"Yunel Escobar piece of shit no good motherfucker forever"

 

10 minutes ago:

"hulk hogan need 4 maps to find his balls they are smaller than piece of persian rice"

 

It became a bit of a one trick pony during the Olympics for me. A friend of mine confirmed that it is written by some mark who "works" for the sheik.

 

In a non-alphabetical list, Joe Cowley is honored as having the worst sports Twitter account:

I agree with about three-quarters of that list. Darren Rovell is, as the list says, the WORST.

 

Deadspin's descriptions captured why I follow some of those feeds, and why I don't follow others. More fun than SI's list, obviously.

 

I can't fucking believe my Twitter feed didn't make the list.

 

He deserves to be made humbled.

Sheik's motto cracks me up:

"Greatest Iranian of all time. If you respect the legend I love you. Otherwise go fuck yourself."

 

I don't want to know what it says about me that I follow four of the people on that list. And one of them is actually on both lists.
