What if they COULD Tweet During the Games?

The NFL instituted a ban on personnel using Twitter during NFL games. Chad Ochocinco of the Cincinnati Bengals was already fined once for Tweeting during a game. But what if players and coaches COULD Tweet during games? What would they say?


Yesterday was one of the more unusual weeks in the NFL (which is becoming more usual in 2010). And players and coaches had plenty to Tweet about. The Daily Hat Trick has access to a DeLorean with a flux capacitor and has warped to an alternate universe in which players are expected to Tweet during games. We have discovered the following Tweets.


After the game winning Hail Mary pass from Jacksonville’s David Gerrard to Mike Thomas (originally intended for Mike Sims-Walker), following the attempted bat down by Glover Quin of the Houston Texans.


Glover Quin: @AFCSouthFootballGods “Really?” #WTF

Mike Thomas: @MikeSimsWalker “Really?” #HorseshoeUpMyButt

David Gerrard: @MikeThomas “Really?” #HolyCrap

Jack Del Rio: @GaryKubiak “Really?”

Gary Kubiak: “My heart was in the right place.” #mediocrity #PinkSlipWatch

David Gerrard Fantasy Owner: “Why can’t they play the #Texans three times a year?”


REALLY?
REALLY?
