Terrell Owens fined $5,000 for tweeting

I can’t lie Twitter is an amazing thing, probably something that Terrell Owens and I would agree on…Too bad it cost him $5,000 for one tweet!
The League fined Ownes $5,000 for tweeting too close to Sunday’s kickoff. A league source told ESPN NFL Insider Adam Schefter that Owens violated the NFL’s social media policy.
On Tuesday, Owens made it known that he violated the policy by sending a tweet about an hour before Week 5′s game against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Not only players, but coaches are not allowed to use social networks 90 minutes before a game, during a game or after a game.
Last season the policy went into effect and the only other person to be fined for such actions was Owens trusty teammate Chad Ochocinco, who was fined $25,000 for tweeting right before and during a preseason game.
About an hour before the Bucs game, Owens sent a tweet that he said was part of his work with a charity that helps children in Kenya.
“A lucky fan wearing my jersey 2day will get a signed football by Me & Ocho Cinco! My asst will pick U out!! Good luck!” he tweeted.
Owens told the press that he didn’t mean for it to go out late, the only problem was he left his home late, and forgot to take his cell phone with him. He he had an assistant bring his cell phone to Paul Brown Stadium. By the time he posted the tweet the Bengals were on the field warming up.
Well either way, it was for a good cause and we take our hats off to Terrell Owens for giving back to a charity that helps children in Kenya!
