Take a look at Rich Clune's Twitter feed from yesterday, and you'll see sporadic updates from his life. Mostly it's working out, or hanging out with his brothers; all good stuff.
Take a look at it today, and suddenly, whoa, he went off and answered a ton of people's questions.
The subjects vary - from music, food, and everything in between - but of course, sports ended up being the main focus of most of the questions.
For example: what's priority watching at the Olympics?
If I could only watch one event it would be the 100 m sprint. https://t.co/bF5s08amjm

That's a good one. Thrilling, plus immediate gratification.
Then there's his favourite sports other than hockey...
MMA, boxing, most Olympic sports and Lacrosse. https://t.co/SwJOhuT67N

Chicago Blackhawks goaltender Scott Darling really wanted to know what he'd be doing if it wasn't hockey, though:
Get in the octagon https://t.co/YSwDJVC2j2

Considering what he does best on the ice, that's not a surprise.
Golf isn't up there, though. At all.
I gave up drugs, alcohol and golf in May of 2010. https://t.co/LPo2r7PNK6

But as it stands, hockey still remains priority for Clune. He re-signed with the Marlies last month, but getting back into the NHL is the goal.
My boy @DiscoStew94. I would like to play the rest of my career in North America. Getting back to the NHL full time. https://t.co/0AkxC9Lr8u

You know, where he once faced off against Todd Fedoruk, who he names as maybe the toughest person he's ever fought, and survived to tell the tale:
I don't know? Todd Fedoruk maybe. I was 20 and I'm glad I didn't get hurt. https://t.co/giR5c0h6rY

As for the Marlies themselves? He'll be back in town soon enough!
scheduled to return to train at the MasterCard August 15th. I've been at @Unbreakable in LA but I hear good things https://t.co/Oe6EqYDnmB

The good things he's heard about relate to this year's crop of Marlies. Not Josh Leivo's chirps, though.
Yes not great. https://t.co/FQWXYijhmS

But when it comes to William Nylander...
Yes he's a beauty. https://t.co/tUfYyfipIo

And to this tweet, he simply responded, "Yes."
@richclune Hope you're bringing back the beard and the high side part for the #Leafs playoff run this year.. #Dapper #YesPlayoffs
