The sting of a Twitter unfollow even affects NFL players. And now it has caused a public beef between two Bears teammates.
Bennett did not like being called out, nor did he appreciate Long getting so wrapped up in Twitter minutiae, so he fired back with a series of aggressive tweets.
I'm afraid I have to reciprocate your act. You have been unfollowed @MartysaurusRex

@Ky1eLong why are you worried about who is following you on twitter? More important shit is happening in my world than Kyle Long's tweets

@Ky1eLong I don't need this form of social currency maybe you do. If a follow from me is going to make you feel wealthier socially, then
