Dallas Cowboys’ Twitter blunder

Published On January 8, 2013 | By Jill Saftel

The writer behind the Dallas Cowboys Twitter account made a serious error when they retweeted DallasCowboys.com staff writer Josh Ellis’ comment regarding the approaching report date for pitchers and catchers and made a crack at the NHL.

The tweet was quickly deleted, but the damage was done and the screen shots had been taken. But the Dallas Stars proved why hockey players have a reputation for being the toughest guys in sports with a wisecrack of their own, taking a stab at Tony Romo.

That’s former captain Mike Modano hoisting the Stanley Cup back in 1999.

The Dallas Cowboys tweeted an apology and the Stars replied with their acceptance. Here’s to hoping the Dallas sports teams can get along.
