[Twitter]"},"content":{"rendered":"

<\/a>Steve Ballmer<\/a> recently revealed<\/a> that he has a secret Twitter account which he uses to \"blast out the scores of his kid's high school basketball games.\" We did a few quick searches and we think we may have found it.<\/p>

Based on a few old stories<\/a> we know that Steve's son, Sam, attends Lakeside School<\/a> in Seattle, so we searched for Twitter accounts announcing scores for that school's basketball games.<\/p>

<\/p>

There were some accounts which tweeted scores here and there, but there was one which was simply dedicated to one thing and one thing only: LakesideBball<\/a>.<\/p>

This particular Twitter account doesn't appear to be affiliated with the school itself, so it would make sense that an athlete's proud parent was behind it.<\/p>

Possibly Steve himself?<\/p>

While LakesideBball doesn't follow anyone, it does have a fellow by the name of Sam Ballmer<\/a> among its followers. I didn't discover any other Sam Ballmer<\/a>'s mentioned on any of Lakeside's sports teams, and this particular one is rather excited about his school winning a game:<\/p>

<\/a><\/p>

He also mentions playing on a team several times:<\/p>

<\/a><\/p>

So, it's pretty reasonable to think that this particular Twitter user is Steve Ballmer's son. (Heck, even Fake Steve Ballmer<\/a> thinks so and follows him.)<\/p>

Anyway, between that family connection and the fitting tweets, we're led to believe that LakesideBball<\/a> is very likely the secret Twitter account Steve Ballmer says he has. Either way, I'm sorry if anyone feels that this spoils a little mystery, but c'mon! Steve teased us with a secret.<\/p>
