The Cleveland Athlete Twitter Tourney: Round 2

Thanks to Scott for helping with our technical issues yesterday. To see the voting results from round one click here. To see the Top Ten list that started it all click here.

Today we move on to the second round. One thing we learned from round one – it’s good to be a Cleveland Brown. The only non-Brown Twitter user to move on was Cavs guard Mo Williams, and he’ll face stiff competition this round from Eric Wright.

Remember, the contest isn’t about production on the field. This contest is purely based on who has the better Twitter account.

Here are your second round match-ups:

#1 Josh Cribbs (@JoshCribbs16) vs #9 Robaire Smith (@BigHomie4real)

#4 Joe Haden (@joehaden23) vs #5 D’Qwell Jackson (@DQ52)

#3 Mo Williams (@mogotti2) vs #6 Eric Wright (@ithinkurwright)

#2 Carlton Mitchell (@clmitch18) vs #10 Shaun Rogers (@QBComa92)

    In all fairness to the other sports, 12/16 were Browns players…only 4 non-footballas

    Come on Mo!!!
    How is Robaire being destroyed by Cribbs? Robaire is hilarious on his twitter.

    @ReepJP that is true, but 3 of them got creamed.

    This is hilarious.

    WHAT?! I’m trying to rig this election and it said I already voted!!

    How dare you WFNY, not letting me vote multiple times. What is this nonsense, you have tougher standards than American Idol and the Ohio Elections Commission.

    I wonder how @6′s twitter would do in this poll.

  • JNeids

    Speaking of #6, MattyFos has the dubious distinction of being comment #6 in this post. Is there a way to make the comments skip from 5 to 7? Kinda like how the 13th floor of a building is called “14.”

    Rick, how sad are you that Robaire Smith took your first choice of Twitter account name?

  • Nate

    Really this is just a popularity contest, half these guys rarely tweet. If it was based on twitter it would be between Robaire, Wright, Titus Brown, B-mac thats your top 4…go from there

    I fail to see how sheer volume of tweets is that important. One tweet every week is no good, but I really don’t want to fish through 150 tweets a day to find something interesting either.

  • Clown Baby

    Anyone seeing Eric Wright’s Re-Tweets about Mo Williams? I know he (Wright) isn’t saying them but they aren’t very……flattering to Mo. Love this idea by the way and it looks like the athletes themselves are picking up on it.

  • Scotty

    Because of Cribbs recent twitter billboard photo there’s no doubt hes gonna run away with this contest
