McCoy's visit to Tampa should have Bucs fans all a-Twitter

Just finished reading former Oklahoma defensive tackle Gerald McCoy's Twitter dispatches from his visit to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

He apparently had tonsillitis.

That alone makes it one of the most newsworthy tweets in human history, actual hard information.

For Bucs fans wanting to know everything about a man who could possibly be their next star draft pick, McCoy was a gold mine.

Just check out some of his dispatches:

"Just landed in Tampa walking to baggage claim."

And:

"Headed to the Tampa Bay facility."

Plus:

"Lobby of Tampa Bay facility."

Not to mention:

"Lee Roy Selmon's retired jersey. Former fellow Oklahoma Sooner."

And:

"Sitting in airport leaving Tampa. Next stop. St. Louis!"

And, finally, the nuts:

"Rough trip to Tampa having Tonsillitis and all but you know nothing will stop Gerald from reaching his dream, Especially with God on my side."

And one last one:

"Just got to St. Louis. Why the hell did Maddon put Randy Choate in?"

Actually, I made that one up.

That reminds me. I'd like to introduce a new segment. It's called "Great Tweets in History" and takes us through the ages on a journey of What Might Have Been if the magic of Twitter accounts.

Adam:

"In lobby of Garden of Eden. I think that girl likes me."

William Shakespeare:

"Just had lunch soup was good beef was tough need a haircut."

Napoleon:

"Russian winters suck brrrrrr!"

Abraham Lincoln:

"Mary Todd says I should shave the beard it makes me look old I don't think it does this play is so dull."

Amelia Earhart:

"Just checking in Marshall Islands are kidney shaped right?"

Rev. Martin Luther King:

"Russian winters suck brrrrrr!"

God:

"Avatar was great but Hurt Locker was better I still have all my Final Four teams."

We'll have more great Twitters from history in the next installment. And now back to Gerald McCoy's visit. Actually, now back to ESPN and Jon Gruden's bull sessions with prospective pro quarterbacks like Sam Bradford and Tim Tebow.

Is anyone else out there amused to see a guy who never had the patience to develop a single young quarterback acting like the great white father?
