ESPN's SportsCenter's Twitter account came under fire Sunday for sending out a tweet praising Fidel Castro for his love of sports.
The tweet, which has since been deleted, appeared to paint the Cuban dictator in a positive light.
"Savior and scourge, Fidel Castro was many things to many people," the now-deleted tweet read, according to Mediaite. "One thing all can agree on: He loved his sports."

Not surprisingly, ESPN's tweet did not go over well with many Twitter users, who immediately expressed their displeasure.
