Kara Henderson Bio: Age, Career, Net Worth, College, Wiki

“Reporters who are snarky on twitter athletes and coaches drive me crazy. Don't tweet something, which you cannot say to somebody’s face. We follow you (reporters) because you are a professional and your tweets should be about the report of the game you are at rather than your sense of humor.” -Kara Henderson on The Rich Eisen Show.
