BBL Tweets of the Week: 21/09/12 -29/09/12
At UKAmericanSportsfans.com, I’ll be monitoring tweets from BBL personalities past and present for our new feature “Tweets of the Week”.
All our attention is directed towards the new BBL season, but the topics concerning some well known BBL faces on Twitter are rather more diverse.
Welcome to the weird and wonderful world of the BBL on Twitter…
You might remember from last week that Tommy Freeman’s Boo Boo was coming to see him in 26 days but he just can’t seem to get Boo off his mind…..
Wishing boo was here to make it all better

Former Cheshire Jets coach, Paul Smith, was feeling a tad unhappy with the state of British Basketball last weekend, let’s hope the strong performance of this year’s Jets at Leicester Riders has cheered him up.
Gym, family, F1 and rest today. Falling out of love with both football and basketball at the moment. Well just the British versions..

Plymouth’s big man Matt Schneck is always good value on Twitter but we sometimes get a little worried by his tweets……
Loose as a goose. Smell like massage oil.

Mersey Tigers’ Chris Bigley has been active on Twitter. Just ask our own Keith Firmin! Apparently he’s introducing new signing Gael Hulsen to the UK’s drinking culture already!
@merseytigers I’m going to take care of your boy @hulsengael on his first real beverage night – dont you worry….

The BBL’s fantasy basketball competition gets underway this weekend and Sharks’ Director, Steve Shore, has a few recommendations. He’s joined the UKAmericanSportsFans.com mini-league and you can too. Sign up on the BBL site and the code for our league is 0ad3fd2094a1.
@teamdaye and @micwill30 look great value, as does Huffman at Eagles, IMHO! Get involved Sharks fans – trophy for the winner of our league.
