Looks like a couple of Bears players could use a bro-hug.
It all started when offensive lineman Kyle Long (@Ky1eLong) noticed that teammate and Martellus Bennett (@MartysaurusRex) unfollowed him on Twitter. Long responded Sunday:
I'm afraid I have to reciprocate your act. You have been unfollowed @MartysaurusRex

That lit a fire under Bennett.
@Ky1eLong why are you worried about who is following you on twitter? More important shit is happening in my world than Kyle Long's tweets

@Ky1eLong I don't need this form of social currency maybe you do. If a follow from me is going to make you feel wealthier socially, then

As of Tuesday afternoon, Kyle Long must have changed his mind, as he was again following Bennett. However, Bennett was not following Long, who let loose a pair of tweets that could have been aimed at quelling their perceived feud.
Obviously the twittersphere struggles with sarcasm
