After a dismal game by the Atlanta Falcons against the New York Giants (24-2 loss), a blowout win by the Michigan Wolverines over the Wisconsin Badgers in basketball (59-41) and me missing the Manchester United-Manchester City game early this morning, this day was begging for some excitement. Stumbled upon this tweet:

*

So @JimIrsay is unloading on @AdamSchefter ...

Naturally I went searching and here’s what I found:

Well,Adams about 2talk about it on ESPN,n that's fine,but the carts b4 the Colt!

Jim Irsay (@JimIrsay) January 08, 2012

There has been no discussion of a deadline push,n just like '98 with Manning/Leaf..u have 2 go thru a long,disciplined process of evaluation

The above tweet was re-tweeted by Adam Schefter himself so we know that he was aware of what was going on:

Schefter continued: 

First candidate the Colts tried to hire for vacant GM job was New England's director of player personnel Nick Caserio. Opted to remain in NE

He then re-tweeted this from his cohort, Chris Mortensen:

Whatever decision on Manning, one that will NOT happen: A trade. Irsay will never trade Manning. Release? That's medical issue, for now.

Irsay, not to be outdone:

Adam S,not true about "1rst candidate we wanted 2hire.." There is not any candidate we "wanted to hire" I haven't interviewed

—
Jim Irsay (@JimIrsay) January 08, 2012

That's the way people get false promo about being so coveted just because they don't interview somewhere;SHELL GAME..leave us out of that BS

That last tweet from Irsay brought this reply from Schefter (Irsay’s tweet included below for context):

Excuse me @JimIrsay. NFL told me your general counsel Daniel Emerson emailed request for Nick Cesario on Tues before he opted to stay in NE.

—
Adam Schefter (@AdamSchefter) January 08, 2012

But the best line of the exchange below: “get your head in the game,son!“

Adam,don't say I wanted to hire someone I never talked to or met..MISLEADING..come on,your better than that..get your head in the game,son!

Amounted to nothing but a few tweet-exchanges as of this writing. But someone else who is known for breaking stories weighed in:

Colts Owner @JimIrsay is criticizing Adam Shefter from his Twitter account for "misleading" reporting.

One thing I’ve come to learn about SportsbyBrooks: never completely discount what he tweets on a controversy.

*

One last tweet from Mr. Irsay to end it:

Brentodento said it best...end of story

—
Jim Irsay (@JimIrsay) January 08, 2012

So what did “brentodento” say:

@JimIrsay calling someone up to express interest as a job candidate for one's organization is much different than wanting to hire someone...

As of this posting, no further tweets from Adam Schefter.

One of the many reasons I love Twitter. Fans have access to controversies they have never had before….even if it did amount to nothing. Twitter is a fan’s best friend.
