"#OCNNBreakingNews Chad OchoCinco Debuts Cereal Brand: Ochocincos God is good, I lost 25k but will make it back #POW http://bit.ly/9J6DFE"

Rey Maualuga
"Washing clothes with moms. Trying to take notes lol"

How I See It: After Rey's DUI incident, it is now against the law for him to hang out with anyone females under the age of 40. Next up, an appearance on the Ellen DeGeneres show (wouldn't that be something?!).

C.J. Spiller
"I love my visit to Buffalo and I can't wait to get bak and start training, the fans are awesome i can already tell that by the hockey game."

How I See It: Firstly, nobody loves their visit to Buffalo. That's like saying I loved watching Lou Holtz. Also, not sure if you know this CJ but playoff hockey is a little different than a regular-season football game. Get back to us in November about the fans.

Josh Cribbs
"Cavs are far superior to the bulls "

How I See It: It's a good thing he didn't say Cleveland is far superior to Chicago because it looks like Joakim Noah isn't alone in his feelings.

Jon Brockman
"Headed to the asparagus festival in Stockton. Has anyone ever been to or heard of that?"

How I See It: In the past, parents disciplined and punished their kids by spanking them, yelling at them, grounding them and exiling them. Now, they just take them to the asparagus festival.

How I See It: I can't decide which is more revolting: that tweet or Tim Tebow being selected in the first round?
