Tiger Woods
"Bummed that my left leg has me on the sidelines, but I want, and expect, to be at the US Open. Will do all I can to get there."

Nate Robinson
"Man ull flip ur cheese bra lol #WorDaApP #swag-swag RT @Rico_swagged_up: @nate_robinson @KendallKjear I got my rent money on Nate Lmao"
How I See It: No idea what that all means, but just give the ball to Kevin Durant and everything will be okay.

Steve Nash
"RT @MR_RETWEET_: Im so done wit the suns! The ceo jus announce he's gay.@stevenash please leave(Perfect example of how we still need to grow"
How I See It: Did Steve Nash really just a retweet a comment about how the Suns should get rid of him and rebuild? Is nobody in the Phoenix front office panicking yet?

Graeme McDowell
"Oops. That was not the day I wanted. Bogied 6 and 7 and went completely flat. Chased it and couldn't make it happen. Onwards and upwards."
How I See It: Thanks, Captain Obvious.

LaMarr Woodley
"Any1 else HATE talking on the phone?"

How I See It: Yup, that’s probably why the cell phone industry has been such a dud.

James Harden
"Love. Live. Life. Proceed. Progress"

How I See It: That’s a lot of things to do… when do we get a chance to sleep?

Mike Fratello
"I've got my hot water w/ lemon. Ian and I are ready to roll! MIA@NJN up next on YES"

Tiger Woods
"Getting a lesson in @ replies here it goes.. http://twitpic.com/3bp5uj"

How I See It: Tiger taking a lesson? Okay, now we know it isn't actually him tweeting.

Larry Fitzgerald
"??The Ultimate measure of a man is not where he stands in moments of comfort & convenience,but where he (cont) http://tl.gd/77qd7k"

How I See It: So, in other words, we should not measure your career based on your four Pro Bowl appearances, but rather if you can ever find success after Kurt Warner's retirement?

Nate Robinson
"I'm n Cleveland bored outta my witz #WordAApp! Anybody know if it's anything to do? Anybody cooking would love a home cooked meal #WordAApp!"

How I See It: I guarantee you there's a LeBron James jersey burning within a three-block radius if you want entertainment.

Dez Bryant
"I'm wanting to watch twilight eclipse on a website..anyone know any websites?"

How I See It: Dez, I know it's been a tough rookie season, but this is a little too low even for someone on a 3-8 team.

Curtis Granderson
"happy 41st birthday Mariano Rivera!!! http://fb.me/EVWZvJYB"

How I See It: This will make the Yankees think twice about a multi-year deal.

Roddy White
"I can't believe tht wideout blame good for dropping a ball I have dropped a lot of balls and never once thought it was god fault"

How I See It: Okay, so Matt Ryan isn't god. Check him off the list.

Ozzie Guillen
"Hard work put u in nice situation my fat boy"

How I See It: Your previous tweet, "Juan uribe 3 years iam proud uribe great job buddy," was just a tad sweeter.

John Calipari
"That's a first. I can never remember a time when she chose my game over something for Erin, Megan or Brad. Have a wonderful birthday!"

How I See It: A perfect example of why Coach Cal is such a good recruiter. Nobody could care even the slightest bit whether or not Calipari's wife goes to the game tonight, but the fact that he updates his page every 30 minutes with useless information gets him "in" with teenagers.

Steven Jackson
"Ok.. So I look out my hotel room and see someone swimming in the pool. Then I look left and see ppl ice skating.. I'm confused."

How I See It: Denver's a weird city, my friend.

LeBron James
"It's just 2 easy!! I smell a blowout"

How I See It: "Maybe I led you to believe it was easy, when it wasn't." -- Michael Jordan.

How I See It: How does one go about smashing a waffle house? Have fun with that.

Jay Feely
"Busted! RT @MikeAndMike Did Golic wear the same shirt on Letterman twice? He says no. You decide! Here's the pic: http://es.pn/ak1RJm"

How I See It: Just stop, Jay, you are the only one who cares enough to post a picture of that.

Nick Barnett
"Well it is what it is... Next year someone will pay for this.. I will take out my anger and fustrations out on all opposing teams!"

Steve Breaston
"Hmmmm I'm human, and I workout Active everyday, so yeah I can doughnuts @KidStallyn: @SBreaston15 WHA WHA (cont) http://tl.gd/6gce4r"

How I See It: I was convinced you were like a receiving robot, 14 receptions is almost un-human, and ONE whole touchdown?! At least you’re starting now and eating donuts.

Nate Robinson
"Follow my boy @Dchristmas22 he is the ugliest dude from Philly and has a cave man's grill lol #WORDAAPP"

How I See It: You’re the shortest dude from Boston.

Darnell Dockett

How I See It: Clemson must have pretty lenient with you because of your athletic ability; did you cut all your English classes? The Bills are 0-5, just so you know.

Nate Robinson
"Sup y'all what it do? On this bus wit da team, the NBA where sleeping #CELTICS happen #WORDAAPP LOL http://plixi.com/p/47522852"

How I See It: The NBA: Where the Celtics lose because they can't stay awake happens.

Stuart Schweigert
"Who is coming to the Nighthawk game Saturday?"

How I See It: I really hope he's talking about the UFL. That would make me so happy.

Clay Matthews
"Bum bum bum bummmmmmmm"

How I See It: That's what Bears fans will be saying to you after Jay Cutler dismantles the Packer's defense, “Bum! Bum! Bum!”

Jay Feely
"Why does everybody keep asking me if I retired. LOL! Just moved to the west coast, playing for the Cardinals. Truly enjoying Phoenix."

How I See It: Jay, you don't play for the Cardinals, you kick for the Cardinals. Get over yourself.

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.

Jozy Altidore
"Spain is good."

How I See It: That's funny you mention that, Jozy because you scored on Spain last year to knock them out of the Confederations Cup. So you must be really good.

James Harden
"Why do beautiful women fall for lame dudes?"

How I See It: I think the appropriate question would be "Why do beautiful women fall for dudes without crazy goofy beards?" That would seem to apply to you more.

Nate Robinson
"I need y'all to follow my Lil bro @D_robinson16 he is new to twitter follow him"

How I See It: At least Ron Artest isn't asking us to follow his psychologist. Wait, what?

Darrell Reid
"Nuttin Like A Good Afternoon Nap. Who Wants 2 Join Me?"

How I See It: Is that your best pick-up line?

Will Blackmon
"7k on following friday would be lovely!"

How I See It: Twitter has truly taken over the universe if we now have Twitter nicknames for days.

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: It doesn’t work with humans. Not that I’ve tried or anything. (I was desperate!)

Thurman Thomas
"I’m I paying for theseGitmo detainees on trial, let them rots"

How I See It: Hey Rush Limbaugh, can we send the statue of you at Ralph Wilson Stadium to Guantanamo? That thing is disgusting, Thurman. Let it rot.

Kerron Clement
"All is not lost…still the 3rd half…"

How I See It: Yeah but if it gets to a 4th or 5th half, then we can probably say that all is lost.

Tommy Lasorda
"I love the MLB Network. They are replaying the 1978 NLCS right now where the Dodgers beat the Phillies."

How I See It: Tommy, sorry to break it to you, but you are the only one watching.

Nate Robinson
"Just woke up this morning gotta thax God I dnt no but 2day seems kinda add, no bark n from da dog no smog momma cook n breakfast wit no hog!"

How I See It: If anyone can make any sense of this, I say that you can try out for the Knicks. Actually even if you can’t make any sense of this, you still can try out for the Knicks.

Mark May
"USC as usual dominating ND"

How I See It: Mark May as usual bashing Notre Dame and promoting USC.

Jessica Gysin
"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!"

Jozy Altidore
":( :( :( :( :( :( :("

How I See It: Don't fret Jozy. If you read this from right to left, it looks like smiley faces.

Stuart Schweigert
"Tigers Choke. Suicide will be considered."

How I See It: I can understand the extreme reaction, Stuart. Not only did you play for the worst pro football team ever last year, THEY CUT YOU! I'm more worried about your sanity than the Tigers'.

Leonard Little
"Watching Rehab. I guess it's a pool at the Hard Rock hotel in Vegas where people hang out. I don't know because Ive never been to Vegas."

How I See It: ... there really should be an "Irony Alert" on Twitter.

Bill Stewart
"In life, as in a football game, the principle to follow is: Hit the line hard. -Theodore Roosevelt"

How I See It: Funny, Michael Irvin and Lawrence Taylor lived by the same motto.

Nate Robinson
"Guess who I just seen? SMH"

How I See It: I'm going to guess it wasn't an English teacher.

Dwayne Wade
"Orlando whts the word. whts to do out here???"

How I See It: Well, there's Disney World. Since you're Dwayne Wade though, I'd recommend going to Wherever The Hell You Feel Like. They'll treat you pretty well there.

Cowboys TE Martellus Bennett
"On the plane. Denver here we come. When wheels touch down u know Marty B in town."

How I See It: I actually don’t think anyone in Denver knows who “Marty B” is, so they probably won’t care that he is in town.

Ravens DB Domonique Foxworth
"Finish terps. I'm getting on the bandwagon. Let's go win turtles please"

How I See It: I didn’t know there was a bandwagon for the Terps. But if there is, you should hop off now. Wheels are already off.

Knicks guard Nate Robinson
"Yo I might have my own radio show on sirus xm radio once a week 4 and hour! Keep yall fingers crossed 4 da kid, hope all my tweeps listen up"

How I See It: Somehow I’m don’t think Nate Robinson is the next Dan Patrick.

Pro golfer Stewart Cink
"Thrashers opening night is here! Early in season for biggest rival to come to town--@coachnoss's Tampa Bay Lightning!"

How I See It: Stewart Cink is the only one that cares about a Thrashers-Lightning game, so I’m not sure if it is a big rivalry.
