Vince Young
"Wonder if yall down for this bowling today."

How I See It: Since the NFL career isn’t looking to good right now for you, the PBA may be your second calling.

Magic Johnson
"Will 2 stars from the Knicsk beat 3 stars from Miami?????"

How I See It: Three stars, don’t be dissing Chauncey!

Jessica Gysin
"Hmm wonder why @RyanSeacrest is standing on a platform for red carpet Oscar interviews #tooshort"

How I See It: It’s either a platform or high heel tuxedo shoes… let the man be short in peace.

Kerron Clement
"Random: I am listenin to Christmas music haha.. I don't think I need to mention the artist, coz folks who know me know who I'm talking about"

"Offices should have nap time just like in kindergarten"

"Got a little practice in til @georgelopez stole my spot on the range. Shoot, george....thats ok, you've got a prettier swing than me"

How I See It: It's not his fault. Conan stole his spot on television. You've got to give the man something.

Kurt Warner
"Doing a Costume consultation: sequins, frills, v-necks, uggh! Welcome to the the World of Dance! Its not helmets, pads, & cups for sure! LOL"

How I See It: Sequins may not provide the same protection as football pads, but they're just as manly. Especially when they're pink.

Rick Fox
"@ the US Open last night and shared a box with The Great One #99 and his wife, an SNL comedian and a Yankee pitcher."

How I See It: Now THAT'S how you roll with an entourage. Got room for a sixth? Call me!

Kenny Smith
"I love newyork!! Doing interviews for Taco Bell today... $2 meals baby! Lol"

How I See It: You cannot consider Taco Bell's two-dollar deal a meal. It is a small five-layer burrito and a bag of Doritos. Since when is that a meal?

"Wow you really can't believe a word people say today! Happy April Fools day :-)"

How I See It: Hmmm ... I’m not sure if I should believe what you are saying about not believing what people are saying.

Michael Waltrip
"well i think i will go to Nashville and watch some racing. and listen to music. and visit family and friends."

How I See It: April Fools? Yup, that’s right, Michael. We know what you are up to. Can’t believe anything you hear today.

Shawn Marion
"I just got 5 calls saying I got 5 new babies on the way april fools lol"

How I See It: Hilarious!!! (nervous laugh)

Ozzie Guillen
"I hope the fans enjoy this game and have a lot a fun"

How I See It: April Fools! What Ozzie really means is “I hope the fans do NOT enjoy this game, and I hope they have a horrible time!”

Abe Elam
"Breaking News!!!! @ithinkurwright just got traded to the LA Rams for a 1st round, 3rd round and 7th round pick!"

How I See It: First sign a tweet is an April Fools joke: saying that someone got traded to a team that no longer exists.

"First rain of the year...its kinda nice"

How I See It: Despite how persuasive Jessica in a bikini can be, she's pushing it with this one.

Braylon Edwards
"Only been here a week but I'm lovin the jets fans. J-E-T-S jets jets jets"

How I See It: I've emailed this to Braylon and his people for posterity. I'll see how he feels in about 8 weeks.

Nate Robinson
"Got a game today, we play philly we gotta make some shots and play great defense"

How I See It: If you want to win, then yes. I think Nate's previous tweet read, "we are driving to the store we gotta put the key in the ignition and not hit any other cars".

Nicole Hage
"Ok I'm doing it! I'm going now to get some bangs! Ahhh"

How I See It: "And after that, I'm going to order some Papa John's for dinner! I'm going to do that, not Domino's! AHHHH!"

"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.

Takeo Spikes
"guess we have crabs AND vd! lol"

How I See It: This was taken out of context, I gotta admit. But you don't wanna see the context. Trust me.

Ben King
"Just bought a plane ticket to Nicaragua for a week in November... I'll find a way to fill you in on "the plan" soon. Siked its working out!"

How I See It: The DEA is now monitoring Ben King's Twitter page.

Shawne Merriman
"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.

David Clowney
"Someone loves me :-/ "

How I See It: Emoticon fail.
