Part of me doesn’t even want to read these athlete’s posts because of the grammar and spelling (akin to that of a 16 year old female, lol!) but at the same time, like a car wreck, I can’t look away.

Rob Brawders to me, Dave
Ahh, twitter and basketball… Both of those are on my “to don’t” list right near “get cancer” and “buy a japanese car.”

Andy’s feelings:

Yeah, twitter is just too much. I signed up for twitter out of curiosity, but then realized what it was and never looked back.

Sidenote: Did you know many athletes and celebrities on twitter actually employ ghost writers to create their entries? It’s absolutely true. Clearly, Paul Pierce does not, but Shaq and Britney Spears, for example, have people that write their entries for them. Part of me actually prefers it that way, as it’s employment for a writer and thus more likely to be grammatically correct. But generally, I think it’s unequivocal proof that twitter has jumped the shark and officially become the most retarded technology imaginable.

Rob, to Andy:
Shaq did the ticket giveaway as well- and for Pierce he could still have a ghost writer, that doesn’t mean he can’t give away tickets and tell the writer to post about it (or even maybe the other way around, if the writer suggests it for proof).
