The league wants to restrict fans' use of Twitter and Facebook to protect its TV contracts. Good luck with that.
I just think Twitter and sports in general don't work well together. With the number of players tweeting, many of the news will come from tweets. Some may even be taken out of context. Not only that, I'm pretty sure alot of accounts are fake ones who pretend to be someone. But yes, I agree that the NFL is out to protect itself for their own good. Though I doubt it'll work. Now only if they can focus on the more important issues.
