Miami Dolphins day four camp note and a Twitter tirade
By Brian Miller
The Miami Dolphins are at it again today with practice number four and yesterday a Fox News reporter went on a Twitter tirade about one Ryan Tannehill.
On Saturday it was announced that the plan for today’s practice would be full pads but that wasn’t the case afterall. Gase told the media the plan was to go full contact on Sunday but something changed. Perhaps a threat of bad weather?
If the Dolphins have to move the practice inside it’s possible that Gase would rather run with shells and uppers instead. Either way the Dolphins are on the field continuing the grind.
A few early morning observations from camp goers has Albert Wilson taking a hand-off and Mike Gesicki making blocks. Interesting. There is a dynamic with Wilson that we have yet to see yet.
Gesicki told the media that he has a long way to go especially with blocking but that while he does make some, he misses some and learns from them.
As to the tirade. Well it has the Dolphins Twitter universe buzzing for certain. Former ESPN sports reporter Britt McHenry went on a tirade about Ryan Tannehill on Saturday. At one point she claimed that she knew “five women who would be a better quarterback than Tannehill.” Then she named five including minority owner Serena Williams.
McHenry suspended from ESPN after a viral video surfaced of her verbally berating a towing employee. It was laced with profanity. She would later be fired.
She claims to be a Dolphins fan and apparently has had enough of Tannehill. Oddly enough she looks similar to his wife Lauren. Maybe she’s jealous. One of her tweets took a jab at the team.
"Typical Dolphins mentality: Let Bill Belichick wheel and deal in the offseason and go for the typical 7-9, 6-10 safe draft prospects like o-lineman when your QB & receivers STINK. Man, it feels good to be out of sports and voice this stuff…— Britt McHenry (@BrittMcHenry) July 29, 2018"
According to DolphinsTalk.com some of the Tweets have been removed by McHenry but the podcast site screen captures them on Saturday and now they live on.
