    Sports Daily: Twitter Told Me I'm Being Traded Edition

    <iframe src="//embed.gettyimages.com/embed/454359439?et=HTMMyvzd3EOT2jDzr-8BYw&sig=knrZAkRIKpi2SeSVK6bMbtjXY4myGNbkZ6-uNzoUHv4=" frameborder="0" height="448" scrolling="no" width="594"></iframe>

    If you thought breaking up with your significant other through email or text message is bad, wait until you hear about this one.

    According to a screen-grab from yesterday, Darren Sproles found out he was being shopped around by the New Orleans Saints via a Tweet by @ESPNNFL.

    Granted, we live in a culture where media is driven by the race to obtain and release information, but organizationally this reeks of poor leadership by the Saints front office. Perhaps it doesn't matter in the grand scheme of things as NFL players are essentially business assets in a billion dollar industry. But for the sake of corporate unity, it's incredible to see front-office executives skip over the line of communication with players and go straight to the media.

    Sound Off: Which NFL franchise suffers the most from poor leadership?
