Hell hath no fury like a CEO spurned.

A day after Sprint's bid to buy T-Mobile fell through and Sprint installed a new CEO, outspoken T-Mobile CEO John Legere has taken to Twitter do some trolling. Legere denigrated Sprint with a few deft tweets:

If you needed just one more reason to leave Sprint and join T Mobile….Now you might just have it….total Chaos at Sprint! #sprintlikehell

Is Sprint a melting ice cube?….looks like it to me….join the cool brand NOW! #T-Mobile #Unleash

If you’re a @sprint customer, you’re in the middle of a #framilyfued and it’s time to up and go! To @TMobile#hadto

— John Legere (@JohnLegere) August 6, 2014

 

Join T-Mobile now and jump off the Sprint bus before it crashes! #framily #unleash

— John Legere (@JohnLegere) August 6, 2014

 

Then Legere turned his attention to new Sprint CEO Marcelo Claure

Looks like @sprint has a new #framily member… and he’s got a lot of framily therapy to do, asap. #justsayin

Legere, whose name is pronounced "ledger," also offered some good advice:

Pro-tip for @marceloclaure, tell people how to pronounce your name now... #leegair!?

So far, there have been no responses from Sprint or Claure.
