@NFL_players, this is @media. You can’t clown me for jumping to conclusions anymore (continued below, only get 140 characters).

After publicly grilling Jay Cutler for not playing on what he said was a bad knee, you forfeited that right (continued).

Players like @Jones_Drew32 tweeted that he would have played if it were him, while @kerryrhodes questioned Cutler’s manhood (continued).

Cutler may be about as likable as a bunion, but the the rest of the league should pretend they know what he’s thinking (continued).

Yes, @NFL_players, you hung your colleague out to dry. For once, you’re making me seem like the rational one.

Nobody wants to be around the grandpa sporting the mohawk, or the soccer dad rocking Britney Spears on his iPod.

After a while, people outgrow certain styles, music tastes and, you know … contrived last names.

The Bengals receiver formerly known as Chad Johnson legally changed his name to Chad Ochocinco two years ago so that he could wear his nickname on the back of his jersey. But now Johnson said he’s going back.

Probably a good idea, especially if he has children. Can you picture the first day of school?

Teacher: “Gary Ochocinco?”

Kid: “Here!”

Don’t even bother bringing lunch money.
