New York Yankees and Chicago Cubs Trade Jabs On Twitter

+Read full article
Twitter

There’s nothing like a good ole fashioned Twitter beef.

On Monday, the New York Yankees and Chicago Cubs found themselves trading jabs on the uber-popular social media platform after a fan posted this innocent tweet that suggests Yankees Twitter is the better of the two accounts.


The Cubs responded with the following poll question.


Not to be outdone, the Yankees immediately joined the festivities with this savage tweet.


The Cubs are often mocked for being around forever yet winning just two rings, the last one coming in 1908. So you just know the Yankees couldn’t wait to bring up their 27 World Series wins.

The Cubs responded with a GIF of Joe Maddon and the following statement.


The Yankees appear to have mocked the statement with a GIF of Mariano Rivera smirking.


The Yankees were extra salty through the entire day on Monday. They also went after the Boston Red Sox while a hashtag in regards to Bobby Valentine was trending locally.


Clearly, the Red Sox were caught by surprise as well.


The Yankees surely aren’t doing much to help the reputation New Yorkers have for being loaded with braggadocio with these exchanges.

Watch Cubs' Rizzo Show Off Keyboard Skills With Adele's 'Hello'

It's so awesome to learn things about professional athletes off the field. So many guys have other interests and talents, but we never hear about them because we're only focused on their athletic ability. This performance by Anthony Rizzo was awesome and if you listen real close, you can hear him singing along.
