How's it going my fellow Dolphins fans? First of all, I hope all is well with you and yours as our world continues to combat this pandemic. I hope that you and yours are staying healthy and safe, and doing your part in helping flatten the curve and get our world to a newer, better, normal.
As I am sure you all have heard, the NFL has decided to go on with their draft -- albeit with major adjustments made given current social distancing guidelines.
I know many of you will find comfort in the league finding a way to hold the draft despite current world events. But, I have to rant a little bit about the situation. Whether its been the league itself or members of the media who cover the league -- it seems like their mindset since this pandemic came about, has been to conduct its business as if it is business as usual. From the start, they have seemed to be more worried about how they can continue to make their money than anything else -- same goes for a lot of media members covering the league. I know it is how they make a living, but I just find it a bit insensitive considering how this situation has affected so many people.
My hope is that the league, members of the media -- while basking in the money the draft will bring -- that they find a way to use some of those earnings to bring awareness and solutions to this pandemic.
Last, but not least -- been hearing about how some teams have given Tua failing grades on physicals they've conducted. And there is talk that they've seen proof that he and his people have not been completely truthful with regards to his rehab. Not to mention a lot of teams have started to view him as a bit of a diva given the amount of air time/media attention he was seeking in weeks past.
This should not be the kind of player any of us want for our team - whether we are rebuilding or playing for a championship. Fans and members of the organization alike should not want this kind of a diva on the team. The Dolphins can do without this overrated, damaged goods diva.
Lastly, once again -- keep you and yours safe. FINS UP!
