White House press secretary Sean Spicer's worst sports tweets, ranked

Before the world came to know him as the new White House press secretary, Sean Spicer was THAT Boston sports fan.

Before the world came to know him as the new White House press secretary, Sean Spicer was THAT Boston sports fan you probably dislike.

Spicer became a meme after addressing the media on Saturday and declaring, "this was the largest audience to ever witness an inauguration, period, both in person and around the globe." (The statement is verifiably false.)  But before Spicer was tasked with touting Donald Trump's crowd sizes, he was just another dude on Boston sports Twitter. 

The Dallas Stars posted last night's attendance figure on the jumbotron as 1.5 million, which was just the start of jokes and memes from sports teams.

• Tom Brady on relationship with Trump: 'Why does that make such a big deal?'

In honor of Spicer's newfound fame, we ranked the press secretary's worst sports tweets.

Patriots headed back to Superbowl and a Republican President in November - 2012 will be a great year

That last one is just a gem. Barack Obama ultimately beat Mitt Romney for the presidency—roughly nine months after the Patriots lost to the Giants in the Super Bowl.
