Browns' Joe Thomas Trolled United Airlines for Dragging a Doctor Off an Overbooked Flight
People continue to slam United Airlines after they forcibly removed a doctor from an overbooked flight from Chicago to Louisville on Sunday. The doctor reportedly told the Airlines that he couldn't give up his seat because he had to see his patients, but that didn't stop him from being dragged off the flight.
As disturbing as the footage of the incident is, UA's apology, saying it's sorry for "having to re-accommodate these customers," is equally infuriating. Upon seeing the footage and reading UA's apology statement, Cleveland Browns' Joe Thomas proceeded to troll the Airlines, blasting them for the incident and its "re-accommodate" terminology.
Here's the now-infamous video followed by all the ways the Browns' offensive tackle ethered the Airlines.

United Airlines ... congratulations, you've played yourself.
Joe even took his trolling to a new level, asking his Twitter followers if they'd rather be 're-accommodated' by United Airlines or body-slammed by The Rock?
We'll go with the latter because even that would be smoother than being forcibly dragged off a flight.
