    Jim Rome loves Twitter. Says its "AWEsome". Says where ELSE would you get the see direct instantaneous comments and observations from athletes you don't normally get to see?


    In the end, that comment in itself highlights problems with Twitter and the people using it :eek: Buncha gibberish thats hard to decipher. And after you decipher it, its still nonsensical.

    This thread is about Public Relations in sports. Now this topic is very polorizing because you have people that believe athletes are not role models and should be able to say whatever the heck they want because, well as Americans are have the right to free speech.

    Generally sports fans are understanding and dont blow tweets and statments athletes make out of proportion. However, the media can take one small statement that an athlete makes "like referring to a gas chamber" or "Tyson punching Nancy Grace." And make it look like they were attending a Nazi ralley while abusing women at the same time.

    What Terrence has going for him now is that his status is virtually irrelevant to ESPN and fans outside of Clutchfans.net. If he had more eyes in the media paying attention to what he was doing there would be a S*&% storm between him and the Rockets management.

    I started this thread to bring awareness to fans of the Rockets and TWill that this tweeting free will obsession could blow up in his face in due time and its in his best interest from a public relations standpoint to find different ways to share his thoughts among friends and family.

    this thread needs to die. if the media pick up on this and they do follow clutchfans it could hurt his trade value.

    Williams should take his own advice and stop griping in public.

    Point is the guy has no trade value..We traded a first round pick for him and he is rotting on the bench, right now we couldn't trade him for a bag of pretzels.

    He deserves to be playing, he can't do worse than Battier and Bud.

    I understand his frustration and agree with his tweet, but you have to keep that in house.

    Where is the vet/coaching leadership to help channel the frustration of these young guys in hard times? Is anyone talking to AB and TWill? They need a private outlet to vent or stuff will blow up.

    here he goes again. RT-ing his followers about PT

    ClutchCityTx RT @DaFranchise03: Its also time for the #Rockets to #FreeTwill @TheRealTWill

    Red_DMartin @dmorey Free @TheRealTWill Mr. Morey. We have nothing to lose at this point. We have much to gain in a great young player improving.

    mentee78 @TheRealTWill did the fan did a chant saying free T-WILL FORREAL

    ClutchCityTx RT @TheBookOfOlu: @ClutchCityTx FREE T-WILL FREE T-WILL FREE T-WILL FREE T-WILL FREE T-WILL FREE TWILL FREE T-WILL @TheRealTWill

    Red_DMartin Still in fumes about @TheRealTWill not playing. It doesnt make any sense. Hes our most talented player, yet he rots on the bench. Messed up.

    harryS0Nthai @TheRealTWill i hope you remain patient and continue to work hard. even tho you arent playing right now you'll get your chance!

    SteelingDuke again another fail by @houstonrockets not playin @TheRealTWill again....#gettinold #freetwill

    Rocketsfan4real @TheRealTWill I gotta say, the Free T-Will chant was the highlight of my night. That was too fun!

    # jmalone11 SOMEONE EXPLAIN TO ME WHY WE WON'T PLAY @THEREALTWILL..GIVE THE DUDE PT..#ridiculous

    Not the way to gain favor from the coach or DM.

    At this point, who cares?

    How long do we have to lose until Rick makes a change to a superior defender?

    His fans want to see him play... They are saying it and he appreciates it so he RTs it.. I'm sure he agrees, but its not like hes going off on the coaching staff or anything.

    It is pretty crazy though, He has retweeted about 30 messages.


    He is totally pissed. I must say, I like it.

    I just don't see coach giving TWill meaningful minutes, unless a trade clears the way. I think it's defineitly time to play others more minutes, what can it hurt?

    This team needs some life injected into it, I think TWill and 2Pat can bring it on both ends. It's time IMO.
