After the Patriots’ Monday Night Football game Chad Ochocinco hopped on Twitter to talk to his fans. He appeared to be giving them a run down of his day, when one seemingly innocent tweet totally pissed off a bunch of ex-Patriots.

Ochocinco tweeted, “Just waking up after a late arrival,I’ve never seen a machine operate like that n person,to see video game numbers put up n person was WOW”

But apparently being a team player on Twitter goes against the Patriot Way according to Tedy Bruschi. The former Patriot went off on Ochocinco saying:

“Drop the awe factor, OK, Ocho, Chad, drop the awe factor,” Bruschi said on The Big Show Tuesday. “You’re not a fan, all right? You’re not someone who’s on another team or watching TV. You’re not an analyst. You’re a part of it. They want you to be a part of it. So get with the program because obviously you’re not getting it and you’re tweeting because you’re saying, it’s amazing to see? It’s amazing to see because you don’t understand it! You still don’t understand it and it’s amazing to you because you can’t get it. Stop tweeting and get in your playbook. … Close your mouth. Put your hand under your chin and close your jaw. Then open your eyes and watch some film. That’s what you need to do. If you’re still in awe that means you don’t get it because you don’t understand it.”

Damn Tedy tell ’em why you really mad! I don’t understand how a tweet complimenting the team when Ochocinco watched from the sideline, after racking up 1 catch for 15 yards, can go against the Patriot way. Is it because Bill Belichick is a Sith Lord with the personality of a beige cufflink?

Honestly, was Ocho’s tweet really that bad? If he would have went on Twitter and hit his caps lock key and started a twenty minute twitter rant about how Tom Brady is cool, but Chad Ochocinco is for the children and Bill Belichick should call his number more than fine. Rip him to shreds. Rip him like he’s an old picture of an ex who cheated on you.

But all the man did was tweet about how his team put up video games numbers.

But, what does concern me is the amount of silence and the lack of verbal lashing for Tom Brady.

It was Tom Brady who made the biggest off color comment when he told fans, “Start drinking early, get nice and rowdy. It’s a 4:15 game. They have a lot of time to get lubed up and come out here and cheer for their home team.”

Great, have the fans come drunk, crash into each other in the parking lot and God forbid no one dies! This is football afterall and it’s all a part of the game right? Wrong! 

What believers of The Patriot Way need to know is that Chad Ochocinco has brought life into a dry organization and he should be thanked for that. From saying he would live with a fan, to being a nice guy, to simply inviting them into life as a Patriot.

Embrace new media, Tedy Bruschi. Embrace not being a jerk. So what if Chad rides bulls, films reality shows, and puts on a show in the off season? He’s a team player.

And in case you’re wondering how did Chad respond to the harsh remarks. He responded with love, “Just checking everyones pulse, yall good? I’m sure you guys are fine, i love you and i mean that in every sense of that 4 letter word #1LUV”
