Mohamed Massaquoi
"Andrew Luck is returning to school. Wow. That is impressive. #truestudentathlete"

How I See It: The NFL is a dream come true, but for some (including Luck), so is a degree from Stanford.

Mike Vick
"Just wanted to say good morning and ill be back on later if i have time. Big week ahead ! "

How I See It: Big week ahead? "Hi, I'm Mike Vick, and I like to state the obvious."

Brandon McDonald
"Bout to go get da whips detailed"

How I See It: For his opponent's sake, let's hope McDonald's being hypothetical, not literal. Oh wait, the Browns are done for the season. Obviously.

Frank Trigg
"Dear TV producers, please make me famous for doing nothing, I wanna be like #jerseyshore. I've worked to hard in #MMa."

How I See It: You've got the gym down, Trigg. Now head to the tanning salon and do your laundry. You're good to go.

Braylon Edwards
"What's up world...what you guys up to? I'm checking out "Little Fockers" so far it's cool"

How I See It: If it's so cool, why are you tweeting during the movie?

Darnell Dockett
"Bought 50 bikes and now I'm on my way to hand them out to kids who don't have one or who parents couldn't afford to get there kids 1."

How I See It: Although the holidays are over, it's nice to see someone still has Christmas spirit.

"Nico wants to see naked men. Off we go."

How I See It: At least you're supportive?

Michael Oher
"Phone number!"

How I See It: Alright, alright...Christ, what happened to that docile brute I saw Sandra Bullock tucking into bed? 773-3....

Larry Fitzgerald
"Chicago what's good for tonight?"

How I See It: Let's see ... we got Cubs baseball, gunfire and the Taste. Not very much actually.

Dwyane Wade
"Imma start a website called What little do they know.com..l2ms"

How I See It: Is anybody else convinced that the big NBA free agents all think this ad nauseum coverage is hilarious?

Fabricio Oberto
"Que huevos!!!"

How I See It: Indeed.

Chris Bosh
"Reading a book called "Secrets of Mental Math" #stillanerd"

How I See It: Do you really need to a read a whole book to figure that out? The secret of mental math = buy a calculator.

Frank Trigg
"(203): God if you give us Biggie back you can have Justin Beiber"

How I See It: I couldn't agree more. Gotta love Texts From Last Night.

LaVar Arrington
"what did Tiger do? why does this woman feel like she can get 750million not to ever talk about him? sounds strange dnt u think?trend this"

How I See It: Wait, shouldn't the question be "Who did Tiger do?"

Rod Benson
"My new favorite restaurant sucks."

How I See It: Michael Scott is my hero. And so is Rod Benson for recognizing his brilliance.

Vernon Davis
"My teacher said I was pretty good for a rookie, and fyi shes pretty hot but unfortunately she's my teacher."

How I See It: Oh dear, her name's not Mrs. Robinson, is it? Don't go all Dustin Hoffman on us, Davis! It never works out!

Cliff Avril
"Why do ex NBA wives have a show? Makes no sense to me..."

How I See It: Sorry to break it to you, Cliff, but more people probably watch that show than your Lions games.

Travis Outlaw
"Do you think you should live with someone before you get married? They say you never know a person until you live with them, right?"

How I See It: Ask Tiger.

Donte Whitner
"Who's coming to my wedding? @ my newly built home?"

How I See It: Wow, not bad for a guy who got arrested for harassment against his girlfriend. How much you paying her?

Frank Trigg
"Ribs, baked potatoe, salad, wine, wine, water, water, water for dinner"

How I See It: I want to draw your attention to Trigg's bio on the right side of his twitter page. It says he's a "MMA Broadcater" then at the end, "I'm smart just ask me." How do you spell potato and broadcaster, Frankie?

Maurice Jones-Drew
"At chillis and the line is around the corner so I'm gonna be patient and wait bc I want my cobb salad.... Lol "

How I See It: MJD, doing it in real life like he does on the field -- waiting for the holes to open up and then snagging the opportunity.

Colby Armstrong
"watching the hockey game. Pretty good so far. One more period to go tho. 2nd intermission, gonna wrestle my 3 dogs. 3 on 1...I got this!!"

How I See It: The Colby vs. dogs wrestling match will probably be more competitive than Canada-Germany hockey.

Andrew Bogut
"#ilikedyouuntil you thought I was a Bank."

How I See It: And in this recession, being called a bank is like being called a Nazi.

Kerron Clement
"#ilikedyouuntil U open ur mouth"

How I See It: This does not seem like a very productive way to start a relationship.

Apolo Ohno
"It's raining here...I think it's quite beautiful actually. 3 more intense days to go! I am ready."

How I See It: I know this has nothing to do with the tweet, but Apolo Ohno might be the coolest name ever. Especially for an Olympian.

Frank Trigg
"Finally after several hours of curling jockey is on. Canada v Germany."

How I See It: After the devastating loss to the United States, Canadian hockey players apparently dropped their sticks to start playing a new game: jockey. Still better than curling I guess.

How I See It: Dude, I've lost respect for your taste in movies. 45 percent on Rotten Tomato. Ray Ramano was clutch in that movie though.

"RT @Jay_Glazer: will be on fox sports radio @ 5:30 est to talk more about our trip. then tony bruno tonight. plz tune in"

Martellus Bennett
"I got ninja turtle abs thanks to the abelator 4 xs a week 12 mins a day and u too can have ninja turtle abs. Leonardo, donetello, raphael"

How I See It: Are they green? Just curious ... That'd be weird.

Candace Parker
"at da boston vs bulls game. man thisishard to cheer against my bulls....but my hubby wit da celtics so im ridin green!!!"

Tommy Lasorda

How I See It: We say this every year. It's as true as you are old.

Thurman Thomas
"Yankees r great for Sports!!!!!!!!!"

How I See It: I spent some time trying to justify his statement. Even using the most outlandish arguments, I couldn't.

Dara Torres
"My jinx is back, so turning off the game so the Yanks will win!!"

How I See It: I wanna cry Dara, I really do. Why would you do that?????? How I wish you left your TV on, or gave Scott Kazmir your arm so he didn't airmail that throw. That was epic.
