Give people a forum to speak their mind in 140 characters or less and you have provocative, diverse and controversial thoughts on the Internet. Give a sports celebrity the same forum, and you have this.

From Green Bay Packers S/KR William Blackmon (@Willblackmon27): back to cali to get super duper strong cuz a few people called asking for an explosive returner!..stay tuned..... ps i miss my cheeseheads!

Super duper strong? Oh Will…you're soooo going to get punked by your team mates. (And no one will buy the hacked twitter account excuse, either.)

From Florida Gators safety Ahmad Black (@AhmadBlack): My professor got the oldest flip phone in the world lmao

How embarrassing is it when paid professionals can't keep up with all the technology that STUDENT-ATHLETES seem to be able to afford?

From PGA Golfer Stewart Cink (@stewartcink): Dear Humidity: I'm sorry I complained about you. Please come back a little because it's so dry here I'm afraid I might catch fire.

Mother Nature got your tweet. She said to email Al Gore for any complaints.

From Philadelphia Eagles DT Jeff Owens (@jeffowen95): It's lunch time!!!! I'm going to eat a Tuna Sandwich before practice

It's a slow day when eating a tuna sandwich is worth tweeting about.

From USC Trojans' Brice Butler (@USCNumber19): Class finna go to a detention center... This should be cool

Early education for college football players? Goodell FTW!

From Denver Broncos QB Tim Tebow (@TimTebow): Thanks for all the years of support - I'm really excited about being able to keep in touch with all of you on twitter and facebook

Spelling correct? Check. Grammar perfect? Check. Sweet tweet? Check. Record number of followers in ten hours since LeBron James joined twitter? Check. The entire country's female population between 18 and 25 now signed up for twitter? Check mate.

From Minnesota Vikings WR Percy Harvin (@1GatorKing2): And In case you have any doubt we will be coming back to MN 1-0 I'll talk to y'all when we land in New Orleans! Skol!

Note to Percy: Yes, smack-talking works in the SEC if you're a Gator. But you're now a Viking —- ask Miami of Ohio.

From Baltimore Ravens RB Ray Rice (@RayRice27): Massage then Ruth Chris for dinner with @losright1 and @NOLIMITBMORE

Typical evening for football fan: beg utility company for an extension to pay electric bill, fork over 90 bucks for NFL Network subscription, eat steak at Waffle House, order keg to be delivered on Sunday, serve with Costco-sized cans of Cheez Whiz and soggy Triscuit crackers.

From Baltimore Ravens DT Arthur Jones (@Artj97): Just had the best power nap of my life. : ) now I'm tryna figure out what I want for dinner. Anybody eating anything good?

Is twitter owned by FoodNetwork.com? Or is it a place for athlete-foodies to gather?

From Cincinnati Bearcats WR Vidal Hazelton (Vidal_Hazelton7): I Bought me a Jeans Jacket today Feelin Real Kanye West ish.. Lol

Confirmation that Cincinnati is now officially 30 years behind the fashion world.

From NFL Hall of Famer Thurman Thomas (@ThurmanThomas):  $250,000

Ok, we give up. 'Splain.

From Philadelphia Eagles safety Kurt Coleman (@K4Coleman): Stayed tuned Sunday i have a surprise for everyone.

Stay tuned Kurt! Commish Roger Goodell hasn't been too thrilled with surprises by NFL players, but have it!

From Green Bay Packers S/KR Will Blackmon (willblackmon27) : like wyclef, it is possible "I'll be gone til november"

Like Wyclef, it is possible that tweet would make more sense coming from Brett Favre.

From Philadelphia Eagles DT Jeff Owens (@jeffowens95): Our water in our apartment smells really bad, I'm afraid to drink it... What should I do twitter fam???

You need to overcome your fears, Jeff. Just like when the oil can icon on your car's dashboard lights up, or your house's carbon monoxide detector sounds an alarm -- ignore it.

From Cincinnati Bengals WR Ocho Cinco (@OGOchoCinco): What to buy at the grocery store as an elite athlete (Broadcasting live at http://ustre.am/4sHM)

Twitter confirms this phenomenon—NFL players are completely helpless when it comes to eating choices.

From tennis player Andy Roddick (@andyroddick): picking every nfl straight up against @brooklynddecker for the season... she takes vikes thurs.... i took saints at home.... thoughts?

You probably don’t have a lot of male fans rooting for you, do you?

From Phoenix Coyotes LW Paul Bissonnette (@Biznasty2point0): Hey guys, tip of da day. If u ever have a date over to ur pad, throw the planet earth dvd in. Its panty soup. Bating like .750 with dat move

Guys, yet another reason to "Go Green."

From Ocho Cinco (@OGOchoCinco) to Tim Tebow (@TimTebow): Tim can i get an autograph, big fan even though i play for the Bengals, i want your cleats and a signed jersey, thank you

This, ladies and gentlemen, is why Denver drafted Tebow. Any questions?
