Wouldn't it be funny if the Jets beat the Colts?

Don't get me wrong, I am a Peyton Manning fan. I think he is the best quarterback in the NFL and probably of all time. I would love for the Colts to win the Super Bowl.

Would it not be a total kick in the ass if the Jets happen to win? I mean, the reason they are even in the playoffs is because Jim Caldwell wanted to rest his starters in their week 16 match-up since they already had home field wrapped up in the playoffs. They bypassed the golden chance at an undefeated season for health players.

Now, the Jets could have won that game even if the starters stayed in, but it isn't likely. This upcoming game would not even exist had the Colts played the game hard and came out with a victory.

Now they both play for the AFC Championship, and that stickler defense of the Jets could possibly beat the Colts. Passing up the opportunity for NFL immortality and choosing rested players for the playoffs gave the Jets a playoff birth (well they still had to win their last game but you know what I mean).

If the Colts lose, Jim Caldwell will get blamed for not playing his starters in week 16 and killing the Jets playoff hopes at that time. With a win, the Jets will have bitten the hand that fed it.

But if the Colts win and go on to win the Super Bowl, fans may still be angry since it proves they would of beaten them in week 16, giving them a chance to have only the 2nd undefeated season in NFL history, the 1st to do it with the 16 game regular season schedule.

This game is gonna be good :-)

tweirdos roam twitter - the spazzy side of twitter

A quick catch up - when I started twitter I thought the amount of people that follow you was the benchmark on how successful your account was. So I built a script that I could type in a keyword and it would auto follow anyone who mentioned that word in a tweet. There was about a 10% - 20% return on who followed you back. I thought I found a great way to get followers.

Fast forward 10 months or so - I now see that followers do not really mean much since most are just spam accounts anyways. My friends timeline was pretty much unreadable. So I wrote another script to unfollow everyone and start over fresh. I realized that people would unfollow me too, but I was fine with that. I wanted quality followers who actually read my content.

So I unfollow everyone, follow a few back I remember and tweeted that I unfollowed everyone and to @ reply me and I will follow you back. I figure this would be a great way to weed out the bots and spam accounts and I knew the people I already know would reply back.

As expected I lost close to 1500 followers the first full day. What I didn’t expect was to get a disgruntled tweet swung in my direction because of it.

@iamdamnsam U DONT FOLLOW ME SCREW YOUR BLOG - from EastDallasAlice (reminded me of Debbie does Dallas for some reason). That took me by surprise.

I replied to that with - @EastDallasAlice Guess you missed my tweet about me unfollowing everyone and to @ reply me if you want me to follow you :-P

I didn’t think people were like that on twitter, so far I haven’t seen one testy tweet. At first I thought it was kinda funny, thinking how anal she must be so I decided to look at her tweets.

Wow, that is just from one day. She had way too may RTs of other people's Follow Friday tweets (tons) I didn’t dare scroll through her spam to get to any other day. Seeing all of those spaz out tweets showed me a psycho side of twitter.

I followed up with a retweet - RT @EastDallasAlice: @iamdamnsam U DONT FOLLOW ME SCREW YOUR BLOG - that will get you followers 0.o

Her reply to that (apparently she ignored my first one about @ reply me back)- @iamdamnsam Well whatever u can zip your pants up or whatever, Im gone

Zip my pants up? What the hell is that? I just had to reply to that - @EastDallasAlice LOL! Way to be a biaaaaatch, that will get you followers :-P I looked at your tweets, you got anger issues, see a shrink

Hey, I know, arguing on the internet is dumb, but it was fun and judging by the intelligence of her posts it was going to be a one sided battle :) I didn't really want to argue as much as rib her.

Her wittiness followed up with - RT @iamdamnsam: @EastDallasAlice LOL! Way to be a biaaaaatch, that will get you followers :-P You are a stupid idoit u are blocked dumbass

And then - RT @iamdamnsam: Oh and bbbtw i am a shrink, you poor pathetic idiot

LOL! A shrink huh. Right. Then you should already know about your psycho-ness :) Just curious, but has anyone else encountered people having a cow on twitter because you unfollowed them? I would love to hear the story :)
