Well, if I get Dion's story right, he put on a lot of "comfort weight" in February and March.
What happened at the end of January to make him need that comfort?
Could it be a little depression after a bad ending to a stressful season?
These guys are humans with the same feelings as anyone else. I'm sure in retrospect Dawkins wishes it didn't happen, but it did.
As to his captaincy, maybe he needed to concentrate on himself more this season. I'll leave that to his teammates in the locker room.
He evidently had to work hard to correct his weight, and he did. I guess I'm just glad he righted the ship.
I'm not buying any tar and feathers yet.
