This is CadChica’s Wide World of Tworts
There is one day a week that I look forward to posting and that is Friday. One thing happens on Fridays on Wide World of Tworts and that is Friday Fun Tweets. It’s a collection of tweets from the past week that I found funny, entertaining, strange, laugh-out-loud, head-scratching…you name it. I’ve been known to ‘laugh-out-loud’ when I read these again. As always, if there is a link in the tweet, click to get the full tweet effect.
Here are your Friday Fun Tweets.

And we are tied 17-17 here in Pasadena after 65-yd TD by Brandon Rutley. Seriously. Btw, UCLA paid over $400K to SJSU to play this game.—

There really were a multitude of Friday Fun Tweets material from the NFL’s first full weekend of games. For length purproses, I picked just a few to share.
First Vick, then Plax, our prison system is churning out so much talent it deserves a BCS bid—

Raiders fans are mad because their victory isn't declared perfect. 49ers fans are mad about a lack of highlights. IT'S FOOTBALL SEASON!—

TWEETING IN GENERALITIES
No particular category here. These are just ones that were perfect for this post. Yea, they’re random but they’re funny or the sarcasm is just so that you just have to tip your cap.
A tweet about ESPN’s Chris Berman. No further comment is needed for this:
Chris Berman is a yo-yo shill. Last year it was Nutrisystem, now it's Applebees. Be healthy? Get fat? I'm so confused.—

Seattle Sounders’ Swedish (say that 3 times fast) international Erik Friberg and his Yahtzee tweet:

Has anyone ever said Tennessee is a little backwards? No? Well……
The South: a place where an idiot like me has more Twitter followers than Tennessee's governor. #priorities—

ESPN’s Chris McKendry with a very nice tweet about Dale Earnhardt Jr…..until the end.
Dale Earnhardt Junior doing the ESPN "car wash" today.

TWEET OF THE WEEK
If you did not watch any of the Notre Dame-Michigan game last Saturday night, don’t feel bad. Former Notre Dame wide receiver missed it too. Well, he missed the best part, in my opinion. He missed Michigan’s victory.
Nice!!
