Actor Michael Rapaport’s War with Cleveland Twitter a Wild Back and Forth Affair

If there’s one thing opposing fans, athletes, and even celebrities should never do – it’s mess with the loyal group that is known simply as #ClevelandTwitter.

The group is a local bunch that rise up when one of its sports teams or players gets taken to task, and with the Cavs looking to pull off the greatest comeback in NBA history, one actor is learning the hard way not to mess with the twitter following.

That actor is Michael Rapaport, who is from New York, and according to his IMBD has appeared on screen or TV 109 times.

He has started a war with Cleveland Twitter, going after the Cavs for their performance thus far in the NBA Finals in losing three of four games to the Warriors.

It started with him making a video in Cleveland, stating the Cavs would get swept, which of course didn’t happen.

Then last night he went into apology mode, asking Cleveland Twitter to back off after his Wikipedia page was changed to say he was murdered – by Cleveland Twitter.

Rapaport’s ‘I’m sorry’ didn’t last long, as he was back on the offensive earlier today with another short video.

We’ll see how this all plays out – but something tells me that Rapaport will be making another apology video at some point here once Cleveland Twitter again gets a hold of him.
