Best St. Louisan to follow on Twitter: Matt Sebek

@MattSebek

Matt Sebek, the sports-loving entrepreneur behind JoeSportsFan.com and the mobile apps Cast and Rookies, is the voice behind a Twitter feed that's almost perfectly pitched. Funny without trying too hard, smart without being overly self-aggrandizing, it's what everyone on Twitter aspires to, but few ever achieve. "Tons of people in Los Angeles right now getting texts, 'Hey, you wanna go to this Rams gam? Got a stack of tickets from work,'" he tweeted after the Rams' opener. And yes, we LOLed.
