When the Deadspin Twitter feed called for a picture of Cruz playing basketball, he (or whoever was running his page at the time) responded with one of Duke’s Grayson Allen, a junior guard who does bear a striking resemblance to him.
(And coincidentally also has a bit of an image problem.)

That prompted a vulgar response from an apparently flustered Deadspin social media manager and a few more bizarre and profane tweets from a site editor using his personal account to challenge Cruz supporters to a fight.
Cruz’s page had a response for Deadspin’s answer, too, and came out looking like the clear winner.

Even in these strange times it seems bullies don’t know how to handle being bullied.
