Last summer, as the majority of NFL players were worried about whether or not they’d be able to pay for their Internet bills, Philadelphia Eagles running back LeSean McCoy took a shot at New York Giants DE Osi Umenyiora on Twitter, calling him soft and overrated. Umenyiora then called McCoy a “Twitter gangster” and referred to him as “she” in all interviews because only girls start feuds with each other on Twitter. Fair enough.
So, um, how was your weekend, Mrs. Umenyiora?
Umenyiora has been the subject of various trade rumors this offseason, and he openly declared his discontent with the organization for only offering him an extension worth half as much as what they gave Mathias Kiwanuka. Whether or not that will be rectified has yet to be seen, so I suppose boredom is the reason that Umenyiora is poking the ringless McCoy with his Lombardi stick.
At least McCoy seems to have a sense of humor about it…
Super Bowl titles and statistics aside, and looking at this strictly from a Twitter beef standpoint, I’m still giving McCoy the advantage for this picture he Tweeted last year:
