This is like the Infinity Gauntlet of dick moves.
There are no spoilers for Avengers: Endgamein anything you'll read below. That's more than can be said for the Twitter feed belonging to the NFL's LeSean McCoy, former star running back for the Philadelphia Eagles and current Buffalo Bills player.
McCoy, in three separate tweets that are still up even now, completely gave up the goods on a major Endgameplot point. It's a big movie and there are lots of things to spoil, but it's safe to say that this plot point in particular is among the most significant.
A brutal move, and a strong argument to unfollow McCoy. Spoilers are always a risk when you look at social media in the run-up to a big movie or TV episode, and most people get that in this day and age. McCoy's tweets about [SPOILER] are a cautionary tale.
That said, as a public figure and a celebrity with a Twitter following of more than 730,000, McCoy could've demonstrated better judgment here. His tweets, which were delivered on the movie's official April 26 opening day, flagrantly disregards the possibility that some of his fans might not have seen the movie yet.
What a guy! Even worse: he misspelled a key character's name in two of his tweets. So even if you were on top of blocking certain words, names, and phrases to protect yourself against Endgamespoilers, some of his tweets could have conceivably slipped through.
Predictably, Twitter let McCoy have it for his egregious breach of social media etiquette.

Of course, as some have pointed out: this is small potatoes. McCoy hasn't always behaved like an upstanding citizen during his NFL tenure (in some cases, allegedly).
