Well, this story just about sums up the Internet as we know it. On Saturday morning a random guy on Twitter who goes by “@SquareKnight” tweeted out this:
Rams vs Browns tonight. If Michael Sam sacks Johnny Football & gives the money sign, drinks are on me. For everyone in the world. Forever.
— FISHER KING (@SquareKnight) August 23, 2014
As it just so happened, Michael Sam did exactly that. In the fourth quarter, the rookie DE beat his man around the corner, sacked Manziel, and did the money celebration right in his grill. Amazing!

One more look at the money sign: SquareNight was pumped:
OMG! So glorious that Sam did it! Take that Johnny Football. You go, Mike! — FISHER KING (@SquareKnight) August 24, 2014
But then reality began to set in:
Declaring bankruptcy in 3..2..1…

Night soon had to admit that he couldn’t follow through on his promise to the world. What an IDIOT!
Today I messed up by promising mankind free booze for all eternity. — FISHER KING (@SquareKnight) August 24, 2014
All through last night, he was outright abused by angry Twitter folk, prompting this plea for mercy:
It was fun hoping Michael Sam would sack Johnny Football and I expect some ribbing but some of you all are hateful and taking it too far.
— FISHER KING (@SquareKnight) August 24, 2014
A lesson for all. Don’t go on Twitter and promise the world something that you can’t deliver on.
Try to be more Internet-flaky SquareKnight – you can’t.
