I’m a big fan of any activity that wastes significant amounts of time, especially during the workday. And since I’ve been afforded this platform, I feel it’s my social obligation to provide you with some tools to make your day go by a lot faster. 
Twitter has taken over mainstream media making the dissemination of news move at the speed of light. I am a Twitter user and I follow an assortment of tweeters from all walks of life. For example, I follow ESPN so I can get up to the minute sports news. I follow Ellen Degeneres because she’s funny. I follow Ryan Seacrest because he’s the first person to know all the dirt in Hollywood. I follow Keith Bulluck because he’s totally mastered the art of shorthand tweeting. And I also follow Carey Hart because I think he’s dreamy.
My point here is that even for a novice user, Twitter can give you access into the life of someone you normally wouldn’t be able to get near without garnering a restraining order.
In the big small town of Nashville, Tennessee sports fans who use Twitter can follow their favorite players from the Titans and Predators and can get news about their favorite teams whether it’s college or pro sports you love.
Below is a list of athletes, media outlets and college athletic programs that use Twitter to keep fans up to date on all things Nashville sports has to offer.
