Reliable twitter sources?

You mean camp reports?
Alex Kozora is very informative and up-to-date. Jim Wexell, Dale Lolley & Mike Prisuta are other reliable follows IMO.
Looking good Steel Wipes !

Wexell is a whiny liberal, beware of following his tweets

Kozora is a gem. I get all my camp news from him.
Oh I hear you. Been following Wexell probably almost two decades now for his football-related content (on his board mostly), but I definitely steer clear of that **** with him. Not trying to go down the politics road in this forum, but that's one of the reasons I left his board. Just too many guys interjecting politics into football related discussion.
Anyways, Alex Kozora is a great follow for football related content.
Had to unfollow Douchette and Wexell with their political preaching. Not a good way to endear yourself to what could be half of your customers.
Alex is a solid follow on there though.
So, if I tweet today. Did I twit yesterday? PopDatBoobie is a ****...
I made myself laugh!!!

Yeah Cope I follow his line items from camp also. However, he is was getting destroyed by several twitter bloggers for “copying sources” involving Pre camp Steeler news. Was surprised about that.
Bu the is very solid regarding camp coverage.

None of us can be everywhere at once, and he uses his sources well.
On twitter, there are a lot of 'Coaches' going after that 'TMC'

Just don't get too excited with the twitter sources. Never a negative report on a player and a bunch of meaningless stats that makes guys who are going to get cut sound like superstars.
I'm not sure either but I'm loving it.
I hope that applies to every single little life lesson we all ever talk about. I don't know who inside their lab came up with this, but they said at least 70% of Twitter are millennial trolls, and about 90% of the content is simply trolls trolling people.
I see smart people trying to reason with other Twitter users pretty consistently, and it breaks my heart that they are just simply wasting their energy. Twitter is the Baltimore cesspool of our virtual landscape.

There are some quality communities on Twitter, but the best description I've seen for Twitter is a cesspool. There is a lot of trolling, not 90% though. A lot of people genuinely believe what they tweet.
You're right, that 90% is probably way off the mark, but there a ton of trolls on there. As for quality communities, I guess I haven't found them yet.

You've got to find some of the smaller known football writers. These guys are pure football junkies, watch film and offer a ton of great analysis come draft time.

That's a shame that the guy feels like he needs to interject his political opinions into things when he's a sports journalist. Stick to what you're good (great) at Wex, and not what's going to potentially alienate half of your following.
Any suggestions? I did find the Draft Network with Jonah Tuls, Joe Marino, Jon Ledyard & others informative about draft prospects and so much more, but Ledyard in particular just kind of went in a different, weird direction.
