So, is it possible to type, run one's mouth and catch passes in the NFL all at the same time? Chad Ochocinco is promising to send out updates on Twitter during regular-season games. He was on KGOW radio in Houston and said this of tweeting (Via SportsRadioInterviews.com): "You know, it's funny - I like it. I like it because it gives me the opportunity to reach out to thousands of people at one time. It gives me a chance to get my story across when something goes wrong . . . It's big for me and I'm taking it a step further. I have my own application coming out where people will be able to interact and follow me. You know more than through just the keyboard and reading my messages - you'll actually be able to follow me and when the season starts, it's going to get even worse. I'm going to really make it fun. I'm using Twitter during games, during halftime, after the games. I'm going to be taking it to the next level."

He'll let us know about his failures as they happen? How about that nice shine he gets on those fake gold teeth? Makes me happy not having a Twitter account for this reason.

Hopefully he will tweet while on the sidelines, and not in the huddle or while on the field. He has enough distractions going on to tweet during the game. Or should I say that HE is enough distraction during the game? Is his new touchdown celebration going to be a tweet after each score?

Isn't this old news about players tweeting during games. The only thing original about Ocho is changing his name to a Mexican number. And that has become tired.

Tweet, tweet, tweet. Is he the "little birdie" that's been feeding info to T&R?

Next they're going to have to ban players from carrying cell phones on the field.
