ICYMI: Atlanta’s Bad Basketball Team “Roasts” Patriots On Twitter
Jasen Vinlove - USA TODAY Sports
It’s no secret the New England Patriots Super Bowl LII loss was celebrated by a lot of cities throughout the country Sunday night, cities who’s teams either aren’t very good and want the underdog or places that have become rivals with the Patriots over the years.
Then there’s the NBA’s Atlanta Hawks, the 17-37 Atlanta Hawks.
While its understandable the Patriots will never be liked by the peachtree city after the epic collapse of a year ago, it was a little strange when the city’s basketball team decided to be the first ones there to relish in the defeat with a shot at the Patriots.
The Hawks tweeted out this “final score” when the game concluded.
Final score:
America: 41
Patriots: 33— Atlanta Hawks (@ATLHawks) February 5, 2018
While it’s likely true America feels that way, maybe they should consider winning some games first? Congratulations on the championship tweet, pass the salt.
