what to expect if you follow me on twitter

no long explanation, let's just get into it

i will talk a lot about sports. especially the Penguins, Steelers, Celtic, AC Milan, and the USMNT. i will even occasionally live tweet these games. i will also occasionally live tweet games that i don't have a particular rooting interest in, this will mainly occur for soccer games, because i can watch just about any soccer game. if any of that bothers you, don't passively aggressively make comments about people spamming your twitter feed, just unfollow, i have over 800 followers. unless you are someone that i talk to on a regular basis, and you know who you are, i probably won't miss you.

i will, without exception criticise my favorite teams when they are performing badly, this doesn't mean that i am less of a fan than you are, so please, save the "real fans don't blah blah blah". i have every right to call out what i perceive to be problems with my favorite teams, it's part of what being a fan is about. for instance, i think Tony Mowbray has done more harm than good in his short time as Celtic manager. does that mean i am going to stop supporting them? no. and if he brings some silverware to Parkhead this year then he earns a pass in my book. i also think that Marc Andre Fleury is prone to giving up a soft goal, and that Geno Malkin takes way too many damn penalties. that doesn't mean i don't like them. i just call it as i see it.

you can also expect what you may perceive as excessive updates from other services like foursquare, formspring.me, blip.fm, twitterfeed, and goodreads. i like to share what i am doing, reading, listening to, etc. with my friends. if you find this to be annoying, then please refer to the end of the first paragraph.

that's really it, i welcome comments, even the passive agressive ones. :)

 

peace

scott

PS I agree w/ your earlier tweet re Geno taking bad penalties. Someone needs to hit him with a newspaper and tell him to stop being bad.
