Twitter is full of additional sites of different leagues and sport personalities.

The Networks

ESPN is a world wide leader in sports and that is reason enough to follow them on twitter. ESPN is a reliable source for breaking sports news. Also in the twitter universe there are several ESPN personalities one could follow as well.
