Evan Oglesby
"Just woke up from a much needed nap. Ready to Paint the town"

How I See It: Urban Dictionary defines “paint the town” as “to appear at a number of different parties.” So either Evan is a painter in the offseason, or he is about to have a wild night.

Nate Robinson
"Man we might be stuck in DC for another night with all this snow nooooooo!!!! I can't stand the snow! Word aapp!"

How I See It: Every time “DC” is brought up in relation to basketball, I feel the urge to make a Gilbert Arenas joke. It’s an epidemic.

Shelden Williams
"yea so i saw that obama was at the duke game!! he might be bad luck for collegiate sports haha!!"

How I See It: And now he is trying to change the BCS system ... but if he is bad luck, I still don’t see how it can get much worse.

Shawne Merriman
"Can somebody ask @OGOchoCinco where is the charity event"

How I See It: Can you?

Grant Hill
"RT @OMGFacts: Billy goats urinate on their own heads to smell more attractive to females. #omgfacts"

How I See It: Except for your left and right arms.

Zac Diles
"Gotta love Houston... If you don't just take a look outside and your mind will change..."

How I See It: There is nothing better than 100 percent humidity.

David Garrard
"In the pro bowl."

How I See It: Only after four other quarterbacks dropped. You should feel special.

Chad Ochocinco
"If I had @BillGates income id steal the cruise ship OASIS OF THE SEA and bring all my twitter fans n party till coast guard come arrest us"

How I See It: Why do you need money to steal something. I'm confused, but I am down to join Ocho if this ever happens.

Renee Montgomery
"If a real fat man snatches u up & throws u in a bag don't b afraid. Its just Santa collecting his Ho's for Christmas... 18 days left : )"

How I See It: Safe bet.

Jessica Gysin
"Sad I'm missing the Laker game but I have class! How do they look?"

How I See It: They are very large and have gold and purple clothes on. One of them looks as if he hasn't shaved or gotten a haircut since the Berlin Wall fell.

"I love how things get blown up for nothing, all that was said is that we need to play better & we didnt need to be told that..NOW HEADLINES?"

How I See It: In the Shawne Merriman School of Logic, venting frustration about being quoted by the media means you should provide said media more quotable material.

How I See It: Emoticon fail.
