These are the tweets that captured the tweek that t'was in news. Suggest tweets of the week to @TweekThatTwas

  1. Only a few short minutes until Justin Bieber does to music what the Argos have done to the Stamps. Not enough beer in the world for this.
  2. Monday

    The Bank of Canada needs a new governor, the Toronto mayor needs a new job, and interim Liberal boss Bob Rae sends a tweet he could never write if he was running for the party leadership
  3. Breaking news, Rob Ford to replace Mark Carney at the Bank of Canada.
  4. Tuesday

    The kid who plays the kid on the sitcom Two and a Half Men finds God and denounces the show as filth, coming to the same conclusion this comedian and many others reached without divine intervention.
  5. Say what you will about Angus T. Jones, "Don't watch 'Two and a Half Men'" is great advice
  6. Wednesday

  7. Thursday

    Palestinians are triumphant and critics are outraged after the UN votes 138-9 to grant upgrade the status of Palestine, but a parody of God puts it all in perspective.

    The judge that ousted the Toronto Mayor also rules that he can run in a by-election to replace himself, sparking irrational responses from some.

  11. Saturday

    Actor and former NFLer Terry Crews is one of many players weighing in after Kansas City Chiefs linebacker Jovan Belcher kills his girlfriend and then himself.
  12. This whole Jovan story breaks my heart. The NFL is full of good people. But it is not a culture of admitting weakness.
  13. The alpha male mentality is to appear under control even though your life isn't. Breakdowns are destined to occur.
  14. I once had a gun pointed at my head in training camp. An obvious breakdown.
