Rule number one: never tweet!
Michael Sam, former NFL star and apparent nerd (yay!) went to see Star Wars: The Force Awakens on Friday, but he made a cardinal mistake for someone with hundreds of thousands of followers… he tweeted a spoiler!!!

The pro athlete quickly deleted the tweet — don’t worry, we won’t reveal it — but he did replace it with one VERY simple acknowledgement of his mistake:
#oops

Oops is right!
Internet condemnation was swift, too:
i don’t ever unfollow people and i unfollowed michael sam because spoiling a dearly loved movie for 250k people is evil

Whew… Glad I saw the movie before I heard or read abt the #MichaelSam situation. People will learn the hard way to stay off social media.
