Hall of Fame linebacker turned television commentator Ray Lewis was one of the celebrities named in a New York Times expos茅 about buying Twitter followers [url=http://www.dolphinscheapstore.com/chase-allen-jersey-cheap]Chase Allen Jersey[/url] , and now Lewis is seeing those questionable followers disappear.

Twitter has begun purging fake accounts, and Lewis’s follower count was particularly hard hit. Lewis quickly declined from 712,000 followers to 364,000 followers when Twitter began the process of cutting millions of accounts yesterday.

Why did Lewis buy fake Twitter followers? Who knows? Perhaps he thought the appearance of a big Twitter presence would help his media career. Or perhaps someone did it on Lewis’s behalf without his knowledge.

Regardless, Lewis now doesn’t have all those fake followers.

Once they told me I was doing that and not projecting … I’m not into that at all.”Herbstreit has covered most of the players expected to be drafted in the first round [url=http://www.buccaneerscheapstore.com/kendell-beckwith-jersey-cheap]Kendell Beckwith Jersey[/url] , especially top quarterback prospects such as Oklahoma’s Baker Mayfield, UCLA’s Josh Rosen and Southern California’s Sam Darnold.“I’m hoping to bring a little bit of the intangibles and what makes this particular guy tick,” he said.Herbstreit has been part of “GameDay” since 1996.
