Got bored today and signed up. Now what?

Jeez, you really were bored.

Twitter is what you make of it, to borrow the cliche.

If you want news, follow newspeople and newsmakers you're interested in.

If you want parodies, follow those. @PimpBillClinton is a favorite.

If you want celebrities, follow them. Enjoy @the_ironsheik myself.

There is a thread here that has a lot of Twitter handles. Or just this list:

https://twitter.com/GunnSh0w/sjdotcom

Or this thread:

http://www.sportsjournalists.com/forum/threads/83904/

Follow a lot. see what interests you. If you want, you can always unfollow those that end up not impressing you.

You can tweet if you want. Or not.

Have fun.

I became incredibly lazy with the Twitter list and haven't updated it in ages. I'll get it soon. Within the next two weeks I'll make the last year or so worth of additions. From there, if anyone wants to take over, be my guest. I'm sure we can figure it out somehow as the list is public.

He hasn't posted in about five days, but @DadBoner is the best thing on Twitter.

Jesus, yes.

Don't worry, folks. @DadBoner is alive. He just had a really bad case of the 'rrhea.
 
Letter-man, you may well enjoy @NotHawk, the fake Ken Harrelson Twitter account. It should get cranking again by spring training.

The pickled 'Peños will get you every time. But they turn any dish into a crowd pleaser.

Oh, yeah, that's a must. Besides, following Paul Konerko is less than exciting. Ooh, that reminds me. I'm gonna have to follow A.J.

Apparently, he has a book coming out this year. And if there's no a TV show in the works, I'm going to be very disappointed. Then again, the TV show based on **** My Dad Says was horrible.

Either way, I hope whoever this guy is never quits Twitter.

It's sort of rich to me how national media folks have been indignant over the fact that no one is pointing out that Ray Lewis was involved in a murder investigation ... While pointing out Ray Lweis was involved in a murder investigation.

I've seen a lot of Ray Lewis career retrospectives written this week. I can't remember one that didn't mention Atlanta. So I'm unclear who is committing this great whitewashing of Ray Lewis' rep.

Play-by-play guys?

"Ray Lewis, who once pleaded guilty to obstruction of justice in a double homicide, on the tackle for a three yard gain."

Socially networking Colts fans were the best about this on Sunday afternoon, once the beat-down began in earnest.

Two words for them: Marvin. Harrison.

You're right... Not one has failed to mention Atlanta ...
No one mentions he has six kids by four women. He plays the field pretty well for a dedicated Christian.

And that has a bearing on how he has played linebacker, how? If he's supported the kids financially, what ****ing difference does it make to anything?

It has no bearing on how he plays linebacker.
Or it has as much bearing on his LB play as his courtroom drama. (HINT: The answer is also none.)
Either way ...
But as far as being a soul-saved Christian. Puh--****ing-lease.

And yea... procreate all you want with as many as woman as you can. So long as you can support everybody everything's OK.
 
Evil, it's true, if you read the Bible, no one ever spread their seed around with multiple ladies.

Great place to get everything you ever wanted, including Hofstra games, play by play ...

Somehow Hofstra game play by play started polluting my Twitter feed. I almost deleted that handle but then I felt guilty because the person Tweeting is obviously special needs and very pleased with themselves. Hats off to Hofstra for their venture into special needs sports journalism. I forget the handle but I think it was @ShortBusSports

You can spread your seed with multiple ladies but you cannot spill it onto the ground.

It is known.
 
Another thread with people judging how others practice their religion. Awesome.

Sometimes I wonder if I'm being too cynical and maybe people aren't as ignorant as they seem. Then posts like this happen.
