    Who do you follow on Twitter?
    Is there anyone that you follow on twitter that helps out on your sports handicapping. Such as a good handicapper or someone that gives out informative data. I'm looking for people to follow.

        I have a lot of tennis players and NASCAR drivers.

        I find that useful to check for an idea of the players/drivers frame of mind. Tennis players in particular seem to post how they feel on twitter a lot.

        I've benefited a couple of times from seeing players up late posting on twitter before early matches too. Ivo Karlovic likes to party and post about it... and has lost 3 times this year after he does.

                        you gotta add ALL the athletes that you can then just look up the important ones right before the event. see if they're fighting with their girl or binge drinking or afraid or hurt etc etc. you can also use it to find scores when scores are not easily found.

                        im following about 400 athletes and sports stations/ companies. (and like 1 porn star and 1 actress and 1 old friend that plays the trumpet professionally.)

                          just look up an athlete and then add the athletes hes following and teammates and whatnot that are linked there and look for the blue star thing to tell you its really actually the authentic twitter for the real "celebrity".

                                  I wouldn't say that DJ, it is something you should look into.

                                  I get player updates and news faster on Twitter then I do anywhere else. The team reporter is always at the pregame stuff, and can report fast on if a player will play or sit out. Like I knew about the Melo trade last year before ESPN reported it on TV. I read it on Twitter, then a few minutes later, ESPN reports it.

                                  As far as who I follow, all the sports teams, and I try to get the team reporter also. Sport Leagues (NFL, NBA, NHL, MLB, etc.), Sports Channels (ESPN, NBAonTNT, etc.) and News sites I follow also.

                                  It is one of the best places to get info and news out there.

                                      feel you, but it's cool to keep an eye on during the day. i have like literally 4 followers because i don't go out of my way to do the whole 'follow me back' thing, but it's cool to watch the trending and 10-15 sports type stuff.

                                        Jay Glazer was pretty informative last year in NFL. Follow mostly comedians and a few news people.

                                                I know it, but they were slower to report it on TV.

                                                Yep. I follow Schefter.
