Feb. 27 (UPI) -- The Golden State Warriors aren't the only team tired of hearing jokes about a blown 3-1 series lead.

This weekend, the Cleveland Indians let social media know that it has had just about enough of haters referencing its collapse in the World Series to the Chicago Cubs.

"We have a baseball game today, which means we have a lineup," the Indians tweeted Saturday.

A Twitter user then dissed the franchise by responding: "Don't blow a 3-1 lead."

The Indians responded perfectly.

"You joined in Aug. 2015," the Indians tweeted. "You've tweeted 10K times. The 1st time you tweeted about the Cubs was Oct. 12."

The Cubs host the Chicago White Sox at 3:05 p.m. Monday in a spring training game at Sloan Park.
