he would basically be the Johnny Weir of football. not sure if that's a good or a bad thing. but he would totally rock his own reality TV show. (can't even imagine writing Cruyff, man. maybe it's only your own idols that seem untouchable, but jeeeeeez.)
well, this is what it looks like right now: http://www.delicious.com/tweetdex (pw's lionel10messi to log in, if you want to pitch in) basically, go as far back as the account's timeline will let you and start saving every tweet that references another footballer (or recognizable celebrity, really). right now we're tagging by all players mentioned (including the one tweeting, obvs), team(s), league(s), language(s) used in tweet (because someday I fantasize of going back and having them all translated as well, ahhhh pipe dreams), and also type:photo or type:video if relevant. if there's another tag-type that you think is necessary, let me know! (it's a lot of work, essentially, that really can only be done by someone who actually enjoys reading the entire timeline of a given footballer. if I had to do Ramos' I'd probably shoot myself, which is why it's excellent we've got a diverse crowd around here!)
