Just simply deactivate the Twitter accounts for players on all the teams under .500.   That will avoid inspirational messages like this, from Keith Bulluck of the 1-6 Titans.

There we go.

I attempted to try and tie this into some cool story about Waltrip or NASCAR but that’s almost impossible because the lack of anything cool by either party. So here is the most badass thing Waltrip’s ever done – from Wikipedia

On Saturday, April 7th of 2007 the Catawba County, North Carolina Highway Patrol reported that Waltrip was driving approximately 70 miles per hour in a 55 mile-per-hour zone when at about 1:50 a.m. he lost control of his Toyota Land Cruiser which resulted in missing a curve. After going off of the road’s right side Waltrip then veered back across the pavement then onto the road’s left shoulder. After sliding sideways his vehicle collided with a utility pole resulting in an rollover with the vehicle finally resting on its side. A neighbor of Waltrip’s testified that she witnessed Michael crawl out of the top of the vehicle (at that angle the passenger doors) then leave the scene of the accident barefoot, carrying his shoes, through the woods on the mile journey to his home.

When your coach is famous for dropping his pants to motivate players, I’m going to suggest using the phrase “catch a few passes” instead.

#redskins Regardless of all the noise, the Redskins (players) have a financial responsibility to play at a higher level.

On 15-10-2009 14:23:01 from web

Larry is right.  The Redskins players owe the fans to continue putting out an effort, despite what looks to be a lost season.

Unforunately, that’s  no way to inspire players to play well on the football field.  And if Zorn is using that for his motivational speech, it’s not going to go well.  Besides, if that method did work, Daniel Snyder would be the best owner in the league instead of the worst.

But Larry Brown may not have been paying much attention to this year’s football.  He just noticed this yesterday:

#redskins The airwaves have turned quite negative today, I hope the Redskins are listening.

On 14-10-2009 21:31:44 from web

It’s been negative for a long time, Larry.  I would say since 1999.

What's most common dollar bill the avg person will see? Now tell me on back of that bill what's uncommon 2see in states... any thoughts why?

On 14-10-2009 14:40:48 from Echofon

I assumed Stallworth’s house arrest had made him go off his rocker.  But I checked his page because I wanted to find out exactly what is “uncommon 2see in the states”.

Donte’s previous tweet?

Also, Donte’s twitter page covered with pink ribbons for breast cancer awareness.  http://twitter.com/D_Stallworth18/

We’ll have to keep an eye on Donte… despite his troubles, and his oddball dollar bill tweet, he seems like a smart guy.

This is a good thought… but is it really fit for re-tweeting?

I didn’t think so.  Therefore I traced this re-tweet back an few levels and found something amazing.

I found an absolute goldmine of inspiration tweets.  Tweets that read like a unicorn crapped them out onto a “Quote of the Day” calendar and sold it to Oprah’s publishing company.

And it comes from a man we could all learn alot from…

And that man is LL Cool J.

Aside from teaching us that ladies do, in fact, love cool jams (we got that right from the name… he’s been giving us lessons since birth) and from proving that if you’re writing a song for a movie about killer sharks, you can actually use the chorus “Deepest/ Bluest/ My hat is like a shark’s fin”, LL has taken it upon himself to enrich our lives.

Take a look for yourself www.twitter.com/llcoolj

It goes on and on. Every few hours.  And there are no “non-inspirational” tweets to be seen.

Twitter needs to start a new verification level called “Verified Schmaltz”.

This is why the Bronco’s 5-0 start is just luck.  Where is a young man on this team to turn to when he needs a question such as this answered?

Brandon Marshall has recently gotten his act together, but he’s clearly not one to be teaching life lessons.

Kyle Orton, too, has focused his game and trimmed his beard, but is he really that far removed from his party days?

Even Coach McDaniel’s friends are just getting to that age when  all his friends start getting married.  Even if Darrell Reid had time to have a heart-to-heart with McDaniels between bachelor parties this wedding season, he’s just a kid himself.

This team is simply too young.

Perhaps Darrell Reid can find a mentor, a life-coach so to speak, on another team.  Now the Patriots and Bill Belichick, that’s a team and coach that knows how to play with honor and to respect the fidelity of marriage.
