The Green Bay Packers just lost a Monday Night football game to the Seattle Seahawks on perhaps the most ridiculous last-second ending in NFL history, and here’s how Packers guard T.J. Lang feels about it (via his Twitter account): “Got f***ed by the refs.. Embarrassing. Thanks nfl” and “F*** it NFL.. Fine me and use the money to pay the regular refs.” The first post instantly scored a social media touchdown (cue rimshot) of viral proportions, scoring (cue second rimshot) more than 55,000 retweets in less than 45 minutes. Lang followed that tweet up with another. Read the full story at Mashable. (Warning: NSFW language.)
