Lamar Odom
"Shooting People Magazine cover with the wifey. What's everyone up to? "

How I See It: In other words, "My life is cooler than yours."

Nicole Joraanstad
"Quickly packing and heading to Chicago for work. :) Hope there is minimal traffic!"

How I See It: There is ALWAYS traffic heading into Chicago. I blame Transformers 3. Yes, still.

Michael Waltrip
"I try."

How I See It: So did Macy Gray. Didn't turn out too well for her, did it?

Stephen Tulloch
"I just bought the game Angry Bird for the Ipad lets me see what all the HYPE is about....."

How I See It: BEST. GAME. EVER. Who doesn't love watching tiny birds pop and explode after being flung by a slingshot?

T.J. Ford
"I need a DJ Name!!! What should it be????????"

How I See It: First name should be the name of your first pet and last name should be the street you grew up on. Oh wait, I think that's the formula for your stripper name. Same difference, I guess.

Paul Damien Smith
"i dont wanna here that 38 seconds mcdonalds ish.....its takin well over 500 and countin!!!smh "

How I See It: Anything that can be flash-cooked in 38 seconds probably shouldn't be consumed by a professional athlete. Or anyone else for that matter.

Nick Mangold
"Breakfast for dinner?!? I am now a fan"

Chad OchoCinco Johnson
"This date is off to bad start, she is more concerned with my pigeon at the dinner table instead of me, WTF!!! These blind dates suck :( "

How I See It: Maybe if you spent more time talking and less time tweeting, it would go a little better.

T.J. Ford
"Just spent too much $$!$!$"

How I See It: If only you made millions of dollars playing basketball ... oh, wait.

Jimmy Clausen
"Can someone please explain to me y they call Downtown Charlotte Uptown lol"

How I See It: I've heard rumors that things become a little backward south of the Mason-Dixon line.

Nate Robinson
"Tough times never last tough people do !b #WORDAAPP RT @rael45: @nate_robinson hey Nate I'm a young dude tryna make it in life, any advice?"

How I See It: If you block Isiah on Facebook, he won’t be able to inbox you. Then if you need to, block him on your phone and instant messaging account.

Reggie Bush
""Sometimes you gotta go through Hell to get Heaven" –Maino"

How I See It: Yeah, I hear you, man. It must have been tough getting to the NFL. What did you have to do, work like two jobs to pay the tuition at USC?

T.J. Ford
"All UT athletes show best horns pic"

How I See It: Watch the Jew jokes, man. Tomorrow’s Yom Kippur.

Mark Schlereth
"Don Mattingly will take over as the Dodgers manager next season...good for him he's a baseball legend.."

How I See It: Mark Schlereth is an NFL analyst on ESPN. Good for him. He is very talented.

Donte Whitner
"Every year there's 6 or 7 new playoff teams...why not us?"

How I See It: Because you are the Bills, your quarterback is Trent Edwards, and you play in a division with the Patriots, Jets and Dolphins. Oh, and you are the Bills.

Donte Green
"BMORE!! Block party 2morow on greenmount!! Homewood between 21st & 22nd street. Free food, music, games for da kids. Come thru! COS!"

How I See It: Oh, like one of those block parties. For a second, I thought you were actually going to block shots like the Kings drafted you for.

Darrelle Revis
"#ocnn news: watching espn's PTI on #primetime2go from my droid x by motorola"

How I See It: Darrelle! How can you afford a Droid! Oh right ... that contract you recently acquired.

Ronny Turiaf
"Happy Bday! RT @CabriniFdn: Hey Ronny, Can you please wish twins Nicky and Katey a happy birthday? They turn 10 today. Big Knicks fans!"

How I See It: Bad choice, Ronny. The Knicks haven’t made the Finals since 1999 and these kids were born in 2000. They’re obviously a curse.

Apolo Ohno
"Stuck in ATL airport..flight is at 9:30....where's the jet Benjamin!"

How I See It: I know it's been 35 years since you last went into space, but we all know you could skyrocket home if you needed to.

LeBron James
"RT @VonDaKingBucket: Fly union is the next hot thing outta Columbus ohio them boys bad! They can rap they ass off.(They are so nice!!)"

How I See It: Paying respects to a “homegrown” band. How ironic. You still just don’t get it.

How I See It: Unless you are in Oakland.

Chris Douglas-Roberts
"Can't leave the gym until I make 20 straight free-throws. I shot 84% las season. I got to get in the 88-90%. I WILL."

How I See It: Well, at least he’s up from 0% in that 2008 NCAA title game.

Mo Williams
"Just left my son graduation. He graduated pre-k. Cap and everything. It was really nice"

How I See It: Did LeBron graduate pre-K, or was he already in the NBA?

Donte Whitner
"I love this new defense..."

How I See It: You know that saying “the best offense is a good defense?” Bills fans better be hoping Donte is right.

How I See It: Of all the players you coulda chosen, you picked an over-the-hill, overrated point guard with Zero 'ships, comparing him to Tom Brady. Cool. Don't you play basketball?
