Memo to Ty Lawson: you need some work on your skills. Not so much on the basketball court — Lawson is a good player for the Nuggets. But a way to a girl’s heart isn’t by tweeting to her that you would like to take her to bed. That’s crass, bro. Lamar Odom and Miles Austin might want to have a word with you. And David Stern might be calling too. Good luck with though. I think that Lawson might have better chances with a vancouver escorts than with Kim K. Especially after that call out.

Joe Buck: “Franklin’s story is a good one.” Uh, yeah. Steroids are awesome. Remember how the media wasn’t going to overlook roids anymore? Sports Pickle

I can’t help but wonder how much money Mariano Rivera has made for bat companies throughout his career. He should be awarded stock. Tom Fornelli

As long as Wakefield is there, Obama only accounted for the 2nd slowest pitch of the night. Douche LaRue

We should get to vote on all-start announcers, too. aleagueofherown

If you put Prince Fielder in a Vince Wilfork jersey…I think he could sneak into a Pats game without being noticed RedsArmy

Yadier will have a good story to tell his kids of how he was the host city’s All-Star catcher and watched Pujols catch for Obama. DocFunk

Obama’s pitch resembled those of Nate Robertson. Detroit4Lyfe

Joe Buck & Tim McCarver get paid to hang with the president & watch the MLB All-Star Game. This world is so unfair. sharapovaasthigh

President Obama would gain my vote if he punched out Tim McCarver right now. TheRopolitans

Obama didn’t play baseball as a kid? More proof he’s not a real American. acforever

The real reason Lilly is the only #cubs player in the #asg is that no one else wanted to go to the armpit of the midwest. TorturedFanBase

Last night Shaq found out about his trade to Cleveland from Twitter. I recently wrote a post about Drew Rosenhaus tweeting that Rex Grossman signed with the Texans. Sharapova’s Thigh penned a story about Kevin Love being assured he was not going to be traded. How did he find out? A tweet by an NBA columnist.

And now, news outlets are using Twitter as sources:

Twitter has also changed the way we watch sports. Many bloggers and fans are tuning into games with laptop in hand and a Twitter application open. The NBA Playoffs were remarkable this season. But they were even more fun because even if you were at home by yourself it felt as if you were watching the game in a sportsbar. Last night I took in the Cubs/Tigers game and talked with both Cubs fans and Tigers fans.

So what’s next for Twitter? How about all GMs get on Twitter and show us all their trade discussions? How about for the MLB trade deadline? Think that would be a popular TV show? I do. Fans and players alike glued to the screen to see where players might go and what the GMs are thinking. It sounds a bit outlandish. But then again, did you ever think you’d see all the other examples?
