I think the most interesting part of that article isn't some old fart complaining about Twitter, but what he said about the player workouts.

"I think teams have done a great job of getting together and working out,” he said. “Some have been televised, and I don’t agree with that. I think this is an opportunity to spend [time] just with your teammates and not for all of the public to see you out there....That’s the way it comes off. It comes off that way. And there’s easy ways to get together, for offensive guys to go out and throw routes and run plays and things of that nature. I believe it’s become a show, where guys have gotten everybody together and it’s like they’re having camps and they’re having OTAs when that’s part of the reason we’re in this lockout, to try to avoid some things like that. It’s unbelievable, the circus that has kind of gathered around guys just working out together. It’s amazing.”

We're in the lockout to avoid having OTAs and camp?
And why does the bolded part sound suspiciously like the workouts the Redskins were having?
Or maybe I'm reading too much into it, but still...
