Tweet of the Week: LeBron James, Dwyane Wade on MNF

Who knew that the Miami Heat stars were so into football?

LeBron James and Dwyane Wade started a twitter war Monday night as the Chicago Bears took on the Dallas Cowboys. James had no problem tweeting out his frustration about the Cowboys 34-18 loss to the Bears. For James' teammate and Chicago native Wade, the win couldn't have been sweeter. 

@KingJames "I'm going to bed! SMDH. Not looking forward to seeing @DwyaneWade 2morrow at practice. Like Pops said "U live, u live to fight another day."

Even though this tweet is about 2 weeks old, I think it is hilarious! Background: Alex Smith, Quarterback for the SF 49er's, loves to go the the SF Giants baseball games. He has, on several occasions, worn a SF Giants baseball cap. The NFL has told him that if he does it again, he will be fined by them and that he is, under no circumstances, to do this any more. The next day, SF Giants Manager, Bruce Bochy, was seen wearing a SF 49'ers hat in the dugout. He told reporters that every player on the team had one in their locker. Below is Brian Wilson's tweet:

Also, if you go to the tweet, look at the picture of Brian Wilson!

This might be specific to SF Giants fans, but Jeremy Affeldt, the 33 year old left-handed SF Giants Relief Pitcher, tweeted the below message. He was hurt in two freak non-baseball related accidents within the last year: last fall he was having a family barbeque at his home and cut his right hand badly. Then this last May he was picking up his son and hurt his knee. Thus the tweet:
