The Associated Press reports the NFL is less than thrilled that teams are announcing their picks via Twitter before the official announcement is made.

Spokesman Greg Aiello said the league will review how teams are announcing their picks and determine whether it needs to develop a policy.

OK so a team can not Twitter which only about 1/4 of the draft watchers even know what that means but ESPN can show you the player talking on the phone and then the whole family dancing around before the pick is made what is the difference?

I hate Twitter. I don't know why the NFL even decided to use it.

The difference is that the first is information and the second is reality show,so if the teams Twitter they spoil the suspence of the show.

So any thing that could affect ratings is bad, I should have known that.
