Because professional athletes use Twitter to pass with their devotee ( somewhat true ) , follow hot girls ( very true ) and show off how interesting and well - rounded they are ( rarely true ) , sport leagues have decided to utilize players ’ chirrup handle as agross packaging vehicle . It ’s even invaded the teensiest of detail : baseball batting gloves .

How useless is throwing a players ’ chirrup handle on batting gloves ? entirely and utterly . First of all , batters are typically very far from TV cameras so no one will even see this ? secondly , maybe on replay or closeup we ’ll see the grip winking for a hot second but only mass with bird of Jove eye sight and DVR wizardry skills would be capable to figure out the silly Twitter handles of baseball game player while they move and like , attempt to murder the freaking ball . You might as well put the Twitter address on the sewing of a baseball .
Perhaps , the only reason I can guess of on why this exists is for the players to keep track of each other ’s Twitter deal while on the field . Imagine the conversation on first base .
First Baseman : Hey Justin , you just got a collision off my pitcher , he ’s unspeakable right ?
Justin Upton : Ha , yeah . I ’m endure to chair off a few paces from the stand if that ’s coolheaded with you .
First Basemean : Totally , man . Oh , hey do you do Twitter ?
First Baseman : Huh ? What was that again ?
Justin Upton : Just - ten - you know what , here ’s my Twitter handle * custody over gloves *
First Baseman : Aw , thanks dude …
Justin Upton : * starts steal 2d *
First Baseman : Are these o ’s or … ah , crap .
No one else will ever see these Twitter grip gloves . It ’s a perfect barren of thread . A chirrup handle neck tattoo is a smarter decision than this . [ Franklin Sportsvia@darrenrovell ]
