The other thread made me want to ask, but figured it would get lost in there.

If I were to create a Twitter account just for wrestling info, who should I follow?

Thanks in advance.
 
My very first post on the HR was on this subject. What I have found the best for Iowa are @Andy_Hamilton, @IAwrestle, and @iowaWRLive for wrestling updates and news. There is more but that's the best I can do from my phone.
 
@Lambertt and @McCulloughd if you want to know who every Iowa fan should hate.

@Azchief32 if you want comic relief

@PapaBearSLIM if you want a perfect mix of smartassedness and wrestling knowledge

@hawkssox1 if you want to learn how to instigate

@SansSouci if you want to learn how to live vicariously through your children

@GableEdge if you want to know what it is like to be in the clink

@SPOONER if you need someone to tell you when you are wrong(even if you don't need to be told)

@GG121AND2 if you need to know where and how to donate to the proper charities

@TarpHawk if you want to learn from someone that wrote a blog before people knew what blogs were and was in the Iowa room

@JayonHR if you want to stay on this board

@21Guns if you want to see why "fan" was derived from "fanatic"

and FINALLY.....................

@MSU158 if you want a fair, level-headed assessment of all things wrestling while following a guy that makes everyone on this board happy!

Special mention for @LaxHawk174 if you want to learn how a fan should act, as he is a very strong candidate for the HR "Mr. Nice Guy" award.

I'd add @KJPilcher from the Gazette if you also like following eastern Iowa HS wrestling, as he live-tweets those meets that he covers as well.

If you're interested in live updates of Iowa meets you can follow @IowaWRLive.
The regular Iowa wrestling account is @Hawks_Wrestling.
@HWC_wrestling is the Hawkeye Wrestling Club.

They don't tweet much but you can't go wrong following @TomBrandsHAWK and @TerryBrandsUSA.

Individual HWC wrestlers:
@BHMetcalf
@McDominate16
@DanielDennisUSA

For international updates, especially good for overseas tournaments, @USAWrestling.

That's all I can think of off the top of my head.

My advice is go to the wrestlers, personalities, coaches, etc that you like or respect and see who they follow. Then follow who they follow. Along the way twitter will offer you additional people to follow who meet a certain profile you reflect.
 
HR only gets a sampling of my gems. I reserve my best stuff for Twitter.

That's why I had you so high on the list. However, since you aren't true black and gold, I couldn't put you at the top. I had to start with 2 guys that hate me and then the funny guy!
 
Speaking of twitter, I had to resign from being president of the Tony Ramos fan club last week. He put out a tweet about upcoming dates for UNC wrestling camps... just hurt too much and had to unfollow. Gonna miss the young man.

I didn't need to be a writer to know that I could. Did you have to become a penis to act like a dick?

When it comes to a question of such depth and importance, I must defer to your considerable expertise in that area.
 
The envelope please. Winner in the category of, "Human Stupidity Has No Boundaries", goes to MSU158.

I accept this award with the most sincere gratitude and humility. The fact that someone with a lifetime achievement award in this category is presenting this to me is truly awe inspiring. I will endeavor to follow in your HUGE footsteps with unwavering fortitude. It is an admittedly daunting task, but you inspire me like no one else could!
 
You guys are the best! Your playful antics help toughen each other's hide. This could be the finest example of "clown sharpening clown" I have ever witnessed.

Thanks. Your type of response keeps me motivated. Much appreciated!
