The NFL is relaxing its social media policy and allowing players to tweet before and during Sunday’s Pro Bowl. The NFL on Wednesday said it will set up a computer on each sideline where players can use Twitter. Mobile devices will not be allowed during the game. The players can also tweet from their phones before the game and at halftime. The existing policy bans players from tweeting 90 minutes before games all the way until they fulfill their postgame media obligations. NFL officials say the Pro Bowl experiment is not being considered for the regular season or playoffs. The players will be tweeting with the hashtag #ProBowl.
I guess they really want people to watch it this time. LOL
Lebron James has been playing with the idea of joining the NFL recently. With the NBA lockout, it might be more than just conversation. Lebron has been stirring up rumors with his tweets asking followers if he should try free agency.
Pete Carroll has been in the works of trying to convince Lebron to join the Seattle Seahawks, posting a picture of his last name on a jersey.
How would you feel seeing Lebron James in full pads? Would you want him on your favorite team?
