Davone Bess...

Post by Red Gun »

Haven't seen this posted, but Davone had a big game against Tampa last Sunday. He finished w/ 4 receptions for 72 yards, which led the team and two huge receptions on the Dolphins final drive, when they needed a FG to win. You can see the highlights at NFL.com under Tampa/Miami.

Nice to see Davone continuing to excel.

There are other Bess threads, but it's a new day.

I too have been following Bess. The father of my grand-daughter is an Aku-head. I've got the Ticket, so I let him indulge.

Bess is definitely representing.

Ironically, the last thread I posted in here was after Bess had struggled in a couple of games. He had a critical fumble just prior to the half that led to a quick score for the opposition. And against the Jets he dropped an easy one for a sure first-down as the Aku-heads were clinging to a lead.

He's adapted to his role well. He's the possession guy for the Aku-breaths. I never considered Bess a punt-returner while he was a Warrior, and he certainly doesn't have the speed to break one in the NFL, but he's got sure hands ... apparently. Because the Fish-breaths use him exclusively.

Again, Davone Bess has represented himself as a Warrior well at this next level.

On the heels of Red Gunn's "Davone Bess" thread viewtopic.php?f=1&t=33614, I bring you ...

"OUT OF THE FOG", a new NFL Films Presents segment that features Davone Bess.

Recommended viewing for all Davone Bess fans. It tells his tale from the bad streets of Oakland, to prison, to Hawaii, to a FA with the Dolphins. His rookie season he finished second ALL TIME in receiving for undrafted rookie WRs.

Of course, there's some stuff on his time with the Warriors too.

I just watched the whole thing - it's excellent! Especially for us Bess fans. Try to catch the replay if you can. It's on one of those ESPN stations.

In tonight's game vs. Carolina, Bess caught 6 for 63, including one amazing, extended catch on the sideline, and a huge 3rd and 12 catch for a first down that Miami turned into a TD when on the next play Ricky Williams broke off a huge run and scored.

Bess now has 100 NFL receptions... 54 last year... 46 this year. Way to go Davone!

He had an awesome night, specifically, coming on the heels of that special NFL Films Presents segment on him.

Bess continues to represent the U of Hawaii with dignity and respect.

If I had the knowledge to do that, then ... .

Otherwise, as somebody else has already posted, it appears that the segment will be available on-line soon at NFL.com.

The segment starts off with those fog machines that some teams run out onto the field through - know what I mean? And then it rattles off all kinds of stats pitting teams that run out through those fog machines against teams that don't. Teams that don't run out through fog machines fare significantly better.

That morphs into Davone Bess' story. His mom, his high-school coach, JJ, and his position coach at Miami are all featured in the story. His story probably takes up 20-minutes of that half-hour segment.

Just watched the segment w/ Davone. Very nicely done. All in all it was about 15 minutes long. I tell ya what guys... I knew Davone overcame a lot... but watching the segment... wow... what a great inspiration and role model.

I loved watching him at Hawaii and I just love seeing him do great w/ Miami. I still hold out hope that one day he and Colt are reunited and tearing it up in the NFL together... but until that day comes... I'll settle for Davone doing his thing for the Dolphins.
