Minnesota Vikings quarterback Kirk Cousins can’t catch a break – especially on social media.

Disgruntled Vikings fans pounced on Cousins, 30, after he tweeted about LeBron James' now notorious decision to leave the Cleveland Cavaliers to join the Miami Heat. Cousins said he understood why James left.

“In 2010, I was mad at KingJames [LeBron James] for leaving Cleveland…but I’ve been in Miami for a total of 5 min and now I totally understand,” he tweeted.

Vikings fans were quick to pounce on Cousins for his tweet.

“Whoa, Mr Cousins. You could go 0-16 next years and the fans in Minnesota won’t be as upset as they’ll be over you taking subtle shots at our cold weather,” a social media user tweeted.

“I’m in hopes Miami will have a job available for you real soon,” a tweet read.
