So the first pre-season game is past us and Twitter (and all its hype) did not fail. Both LenDale White and Chris Johnson are regular ‘tweeters’ so we knew this might not be a bad test of the ‘Twitter Effect’ on the NFL.
While knowledge like this might make some fantasy manager’s heads spin, you can’t ignore its out there and valuable. Before kick off we learn:
Chris Johnson: Me and lendale (LenDale White) got left by the bus so we will be gettin to the game late
The reason?
Chris Johnson: Its my fault we got left I was shinning my teeth with my gold rags I got to look good for the show
The Godfather of NFL Tweeting, Chad Ochocinco, who both regularly refer to as ‘big bra’, dolled out some understanding:
Chad Ochocinco: @ChrisJohnson28 damn I got left by the bus to one time, caught a cab to the game.
LenDale worries about a lack of escort:
LenDale White: @OGOchoCinco i told @ChrisJohnson28 lets slide but thats a hour in a cab wit no police
So now we have two starters having to take a cab to a game without an escort. Not earth shattering stuff, but for Manager’s facing game time decisions, knowing one of your players is spending their game prep in a cab in traffic just might push you over the edge! Mining this information is not easy, which is why we do it for you in our Chatter section.
Of course the two had a few things to say post game:
LenDale White: bout this life vol1 take 2. I told yall it starts today. 1 game 1 win u gotta luv it Cashville
Chris Johnson: On my way back to nashville we gone have a real good team
Twitter is here and its only going to reveal more about the game and the minds that play it. So far, its looking pretty interesting.
