The Finger Wag – Athletes using Twitter and Social Media to their Disadvantage

The NFL Draft for 2010 was the first one to be held during prime time. There was many trades and picks were made. I know that read like a third grader discussing his trip to the zoo but what do you want? You really can’t determine if a draft was good or not for at least 3 years and by then no one gives a shit.

Check them out:

Now I don’t mean to brag but when I was a youngster my mother took me to see MC Hammer in concert and there was not one, but two unannounced guests in the form of Boyz II Men and TLC. You can be jealous now.
