Cardale Jones blames hacked account for sexist tweets

Just when you thought Cardale Jones had turned a corner when it came to his social media use, he goes out and does something stupid.

The Ohio State quarterback had a couple of tweets sent from his account belittling female sports fans, saying things like they pick their favorite teams based on jersey colors. The tweets of course are offensive to females because there are numerous hardcore sports fans who happen to be female.

Jones deleted the tweets and then indicated that he was hacked.

I need to change my Twitter password

BTW, those wasn't my tweets about females and sports, I don't comment on race/ethnicity, sexual orientation, politics or gender, goodnight

As bad as those tweets were, Jones was at least smart to say he was hacked.
