Every young athlete has their moments on social media, not really thinking about what will happen far into the future. It happened last year when people dug up old tweets from NBA draft picks, and it’ll continue happening as long as social media exists. With that said, there was a funny moment with new Los Angeles Rams quarterback Jared Goff and Dodgers right-fielder Yasiel Puig. See, almost three years ago, Goff tweeted something mean about Puig. Granted, Goff was 18 when he said this.
Yasiel Puig welcomed Jared Goff to L.A. by responding to a mean tweet from 2013
Puig your friend. Puig not late.
I really hope Yasiel Puig gets a fastball in his ribs tomorrow
— Jared Goff (@JaredGoff16) July 29, 2013
And of course, after Goff got drafted to the Rams, people pointed it out, including some Dodgers players:
@kikehndez get ready to add intermediary to your resume. https://t.co/LQ2EIY8i0a

@BrettAnderson35 @JaredGoff16 ✌ ️ #Peace #GoodVibes

The best part, however, was Puig himself welcoming Goff over Twitter:
@JaredGoff16 Big hug, Welcome to LA, I show you around, be my guest to @Dodgers game #PuigYourFriend #PuigNotLate https://t.co/85B1djlAGM
— Yasiel Puig (@YasielPuig) April 29, 2016
Got that, Goff? Puig your friend. Puig not late.
