Athletes need to watch what they tweet, because they never know what may come back to haunt them. Eli Apple could tell you something about that.
Apple, a redshirt sophomore from Ohio State, was selected No. 10 overall in Thursday’s NFL Draft by the New York Giants. While getting picked so high was a great break for Apple especially after the character criticism he endured this week, he might have a little making up to do.
Before the NFL, and even before he was a student-athlete at Ohio State, Apple once trolled Giants fans after the team lost to the Falcons 34-0 in 2012:
Must suck to be a giants fan today #shutout #embarrassing

Hopefully Giants fans will be able to forgive him. And, hey, it could have been much worse. Remember this awkward draft moment?
