It has been all of 1 day since I called out the Miami Dolphins fans for their lack of support of one Jason Taylor. I called out the executive branch of the Miami front office and the NFL as well. I stood up, and clapped my hands loudly at the current holder of the Walter Payton Man of the Year award winner. Now, it appears that JT is not quite ready to get back to football afterall. Sure makes me look like a fool. Sort of. Well, no more excuses JT. Why are you not in Miami?
While I still do not waiver on the fact that I support what JT is doing with his non-football career, it seems that with tonights Dancing With The Stars finale, an event that is now looking more and more unlikely to hear his name announced as a winner, in fact he may not even make it to the final two after his combined 51 last night dropped him to 3rd. Seriously though JT, if you want people to realize that your heart is still in football, then the least you can do is not disrespect those of us who actually agree with you not being in Miami the last 16 weeks.
According to Jason, on a blog for ESPN, after tonights “Grand Finale” show, he will head to NY to be on the networks morning show…o.k., that’s perfectly understandable. Then, instead of heading south to Miami for the teams OTA’s, Jason will be flying back to L.A. Presumably for a golf tournament.
Jason says that he will not attend the OTA’s but will not miss any of the mandatory schedules. A great message to send to the young guys on this team, and make no mistake there are plenty of them. Jason had his personal priorities in the right order when he started this dancing gig, now, it’s time to get his proffessional priorities in order as well. That means rejoining your team. If this is a Jason Taylor sponsored golf event than to an extent I may understand, but if this is for appearence…then your priorities need to be reorganized. When Bill Parcells gets pissed about this one, I’m afraid he has more than one leg to stand on.
