As someone who uses Twitter to get their news and just for good sports conversation, I make sure to follow New York Giants players, current and former. If you are on Twitter, here is a list of players to follow and why.

Steve Weatherford - @Weatherford5

Weatherford is my favorite Giants player to follow. The guy's personality is through the roof, and he embraces the Giants fanbase. He expresses on Twitter how much he loves to be a Giant and that they have the best fans in the world. Plus he posts pictures of his kids, who are too cute.

On my way to @thegarden to see my @nyknicks get a W tonight!Who's with me? #KNICKS #NYC twitter.com/Weatherford5/s…

Markus Kuhn - @themarkuskun

I like to follow Markus because he will tweet some of the most random things where you ask yourself, "What does that mean?" but you laugh anyway. Plus, he's another who praises the Giants fan base.

I feel like I'm in a Fergie song

Henry Hynoski - @HenryHynoski

Hynoski is just another player who loves his fans. He uses Twitter to involve the fans in good conversation and his blog on his web site.

Just finished #swollpatrol with @weatherford5...great workout! twitter.com/HenryHynoski/s…

Mark Herzlich - @markherzlich

I like to follow Herzlich because he's good for inspiration, jokes, he has the world's cutest dogs, and as you can see in the tweet below he fought Batman.

Casual battle with #Batman the other night. In Times Square. instagr.am/p/V5gM9bDahT/

Michael Strahan - @michaelstrahan

Why wouldn't you want to follow Strahan? I don't think there needs to be too much explanation here.

Spencer Paysinger - @SpittyP

He's sarcastic and can be a troll, but I think it's hilarious. Paysinger is a good follow.

Michelle Obama could step out in a designer paper bag and you girls would think it's EVERYTHING.

Terrell Thomas - @TerrellThomas24

I've been following T2 for a couple of years now. What I've learned is he loves his video games, his kids, and Taco Tuesdays.

I'm terrible at making decisions but great at putting my mind on anything...talk about a contradiction lol

Jim Cordle - @JimCordle63

If you're a WWE fan, Cordle is a good follow. He's a huge fan of the WWE. My timeline is usually flooded with RAW tweets, and Cordle is among them.

HHH will have something to say to Brock next week. IM SO PUMPED for Mania @davediehl66 @henryhynoski @tsash. I cant believe he #F5'd Vince

Martellus Bennett - @JoeGryffindor

Following someone who is nicknamed "The Black Unicorn" is well worth it. Bennett is definitely a funny and entertaining follow.

Tampa is one of the slowest places in the world. Lol. Visiting here from NY is like running fast on a treadmill then gettin off to walk.

— Martellus Bennett (@JoeGryffindor) February 27, 2013

Finally, I'm not a Giants player, but I dress my dog in Giants gear for Christmas.

Got my dog a sweater. He's a true fan now. #NYG twitter.com/KelsODonnell/s…
