The NFL tackled Twitter this week, banning its use by players 90 minutes before a game through its conclusion.
Back in July, Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Chad Ochocinco made it clear that no such rule would be stopping him from tweeting mid-game:
I am going by my own set of rules. I ain't hurting nobody or getting in trouble, I am putting my foot down!!
God said to honor thy mother and thy father, no where in the ten commandments does it say NFL!!
On Friday, the star wideouts’ page read a bit differently:
Due to the many rules the NFL has made I've found it difficult to enjoy Twitter and I'll be deleting my account :(
I thank and love you all for following, hope you enjoyed getting to know the real me: Esteban out
NFL: uno, Ochocinco: cero.
Even though ochocinco usually gets a bad wrap, not gonna lie, I'm a fan of the guy. Chad shouldn't be twitterin during his games however the dudes extremely entertaining. bob marley hoodies
