Arizona Cardinals win Twitter fight with Cleveland Browns

Jul 23, 2015, 11:32 AM | Updated: 11:51 am

Let’s be honest, the Arizona Cardinals’ Week 8 matchup with the Cleveland Browns is not exactly must-see TV. At least, no more so than your standard mid-season NFL game.

But now, thanks to the respective teams’ Twitter accounts, the contest may have a bit more juice to it.

Things started off rather innocent, with the Browns promoting their stadium and the Cardinals noting how they’re looking forward to the game.

Then things got a little heated, with the Browns pointing out the last time the Cardinals visited their wonderful city:

Now, that clearly was not a good game for the Cardinals (or season — for either team, really), but that did not mean it wasn’t offensive. So, Arizona responded:

We’re going to give the edge to the Cardinals here, and not just because they are our hometown team. Nicely done, and hopefully the actual game is equally entertaining.
