You may have heard the name Miko Grimes before. The wife of Dolphins cornerback Brent Grimes was arrested outside of a game earlier this season. On Sunday, however, she did her damage online by calling out quarterback Ryan Tannehill and many members of the Miami sports media.

Her Twitter account is protected now, but many websites were able to capture screenshots of her Twitter tirade. The main focus of her anger went toward what she labels "The Triple A's." She is referring to the Miami Herald’s Adam Beasley and Armando Salguero, along with Andrew Abramson of the Palm Beach Post.
"The Triple A's: Armando, Andrew and Adam. F— all three of y'all with Magic Johnson's d—," she tweeted.
You might think this isn't a big deal, that it's just a player's wife venting. But it is a big deal, especially when she's using language like that. In fact, it's such a big deal that the Dolphins already sat down with Brent Grimes to tell him to tell his wife that she needs to stop.
Per Salguero of the Miami Herald:
The Dolphins met with Grimes and his wife at that time (in the preseason) to explain that was not proper use of her press privileges. The Dolphins, you should know, have met with Brent Grimes about his wife at least five different occasions to express concern over Mrs. Grimes' colorful personality. At least five. Joe Philbin told me in the preseason he told Grimes in a meeting that he needed to address with his wife her social media behavior because, like it or not, it reflected poorly on the organization.

Another problem with Miko's rant is that she heavily criticized Brent's teammate Tannehill. She not only said negative things about him, but she also aired out some information from the team's practice sessions.
"I should've known we were gonna lose when I heard we didn't complete a single pass in two minute drills this week against the practice squad defense," she said in a tweet. "My Column: How many people does Ryan Tannehill have to get fired before you realize he's the problem."
She had another tweet about Tannehill that's too vulgar to share, even if we censor it. The point is, her public and colorful criticisms can't bode well for Brent Grimes' future with the Dolphins. Will upper management really want to put up with the ongoing distraction?
