Deadspin: Dan Gilbert is 23rd Worst Twitter Account in Sports

Think there is any coincidence with that ranking?

In response to the big hoopla surrounding SI.com’s listing of the 100 must-follow Twitter accounts, Deadspin countered with its 67 “don’t follow” accounts. Obviously, there couldn’t be some type of critical Deadspin list without some type of Cleveland mention.

Here’s the snarky quote to go along with Deadspin’s review of Cleveland Cavaliers owner Dan Gilbert at No. 23: “A constant reminder that in America, a bumbling old man can become a millionaire and own an NBA franchise.”

The only other professional sports owner on the list is the Indianapolis Colts’ Jim Irsay, plugging in at No. 8.

    This list sucks. It fails to include Mark May. ESPN’s biggest troll by far. Also an idiot. Does anyone find it lame that the people at ESPN call him “Mayday”?

    I find that completely lame, except when it’s used as a euphemism in him being the poster boy for Ohio State and Cleveland hate. Hopefully others have noticed that our biggest hater at ABC/ESPN is May.
