  1. In the future, go here for a regular hot tweet injection: http://twitter.com/drewmagary
  2. Fake Rick Reilly. 2009-2009. "E pluribus pun-um."
  3. Rick's Twitter life was short but tweet, and, stupid rule be damned, was blessed with well over 140 characters. RT all of you - goodnight.
  4. The official cause of death was cerebrovascular accident. But those close to him knew that, like Hackarus, he flew too closely to the pun.
  5. Too many Thabeets, in fact. Hyper-excited by his "comaudlin" goldmine discovery, Rick suffered more strokes than Van de Velde at Carnoustie.
  6. So when Rick heard the story of the deaf conjoined twin Iraqi orphan champion doubles ping pong players, his heart skipped Thabeet.
  7. He also knew the Twitter fad would pass faster than an Ex-Lax topped Whopper. But like River Phoenix, he wanted to go out on a high.
  8. Fake Rick Reilly knew life was short. But he knew tweeting was even shorter.
  9. See, I'm less about quantity than I am QUALITY. If it were my book, it would be 175 pages of only my best dental jokes. Each word counts!
  10. I think that book could hold my collie in place! It's thicker than Ron Artest's skull!
  11. @sportsguy33: Your book is 720 pages? Is that the King James edition? Does Voldemort die at the end?
  12. In forming a track & field club for blind kids, Sue's heart was in the right place. Tragically, spectators near the javelin runway were not.
  13. Just give us your pee, Manny! Give up The Clear, Ramir! And drop the whole sham, Ram! Cuz it takes...50 Games to Learn Your Lesson!
  14. Favre rebuffed the Vikings? And I thought I was stunned when my third child was conceived!
  15. "Manny Being Manny" is no excuse for "Timmy Wheeler Being Dead." Sometimes I think these ballplayers have sunflower seeds for brains.
  16. Maybe you think it's no big deal that Manny juiced. Well, tell that Jim Wheeler, whose son died from PED-induced liver failure.
  17. Seriously, though. This is yet another black eye for a game that's had more of them than Rihanna.
  18. I'll bet A-Rod is more relieved than I was when I piddled in the woods on the 17th at Torrey Pines!
  19. @sportsguy33: http://is.gd/xvrD Uh oh, looks like Ramirez is getting a 50-game suspension. Just another case of Manny sticking fanny!
  20. For Max, the thrill of the mountain stage could never match the warm rush of the spike. Addiction: truly the most vicious cycle of them all.
