Once a week, I'm going to take a look at various 49ers players on Twitter and some of the things they say. I'll probably end up being incredibly sarcastic and sardonic. In fact, the only thing that will be true is probably the tweets themselves, I'll likely talk some kind of jive after the fact, so - as usual - don't listen to me. Anyway, I'm going to do my best to keep it entertaining more so than informative, so if reading athletes talking total nonsense on Twitter isn't your thing, you're better off not commenting instead of complaining about it.
Also, this is a call to arms for some kind of clever title for this running feature. We decided yesterday that we were going to do this, and your benevolent dictator, Fooch, couldn't come up with a title. So whoever comes up with a good one gets um ... gets nothing, as it happens, but we'll probably use it. So that's good. First, a couple random tweets, then make the jump for more. A lot more. In the case that you have problems following along, the tweet is in italics, then the name of who tweeted it, and then my commentary after the comma.
