"Although we are capable of great acts of kindness, history teaches us that we sometimes need saving from ourselves – from our recklessness or our greed. God sent into the world a unique person – neither a philosopher nor a general, important though they are, but a Saviour, with the power to forgive... It is my prayer that on this Christmas day we might all find room in our lives for the message of the angels and for the love of God through Christ our Lord." (Christmas message, 2011)

Deus ex dolphinForum VeteranDid he bring his grandmother with him? Kidding aside, he would be great on the right deal, but he seems to have had problems staying healthy.
A terrible play call, terribly executed.
btfu149Forum VeteranI'd love to have him back if he has anything left in the tank, never should have traded him in the first place.
ColmaxForum VeteranAren’t they thinking of using McDonald in a hybrid LB/S role?
I think they’re looking at him for safety and backup CB. Use to be fast. Solid hands. He’s a thumper. I’ve always liked Davis’ play.

JIGGAJOEForum Veteran1 year prove it deal 4 me. Probably an upgrade from Verner, don't know about safety though.
KeyFinForum VeteranOf all the players we've let walk over the past decade, Davis was by far the most head-scratching. He's been a top three corner since leaving (well, I didn't check last season) and the guy plays lights-out every time. He's just not a "high moral character" like Philbin preferred because he was too dumb to know what that meant. Otherwise the guy was lights-out!

That Grandmother thing was never funny to begin with. Now, at this stage, it is just really really lame. There is absolutely nothing funny about a child not being able to be raised by his parents.

Actually, Vontae has a very high IQ, and did very well in school. He is also known to be a very hard worker and a really nice guy. What he had, was a drinking problem. He overcome that and stopped missing meetings, and falling asleep in meetings, and being hungover in practice.
Would love this signing if they could fit him in this tight cap.He is a baller when healthy.
Paul 13StaffDid he forget something?

Being raised by a grandmother who clearly loved him puts Vontae in a better position than lot of kids who have NO ONE when growing up.
More to the point, do you think she WON'T have any influence on where he signs next? The GM and coach that traded him away are long gone, so maybe Miami has a real chance to sign him. Or maybe they both hold a grudge, but Davis needs multiple teams competing for his services to get the best deal he can so that means pretending to be interested in a return to the Dolphins.
A terrible play call, terribly executed.
MonstBlitzForum VeteranI'd love to bring in VD and undo one of Ireland's fuck ups.

I agree that it was not very funny. Just shows how big of jerks fans can be.
He just got some bad news and his first reaction is to talk to someone he cares about? What a loser.
He should have said, "I need to do 1,000 push-ups, slam a red bull, and not talk about my feelings. I'M A MAN!"
