Here is what bothers me about this article is that he is going off a 2 sentence statement from his brother & his "sources" to claim he knows exactly how it was handled. Plus not to mention he talks about how the issue has lingerd, I have heard nothing about it since the 1st day of camp it's Armando that is bringing it back up. He also brings up how transparent we should be & that's how Ross wants it now, well I guess he forgot about Hard Knocks last year & when they addressed the Wallace text earlier in the offseason & other issues just b/c they didn't go through Armando apparently it is wrong. Other teams do the same thing plus I don't believe Mike Tomlin made a comment about it.
Please understand I am no way supporting Pouncey for wearing the hat in fact it was stupid & insensitive for him to do. IF (that's a big if) this is true then IMO I disagree with how it was handled, Pouncey should own up to his mistake & ask for forgiveness at the same time they have to do what they feel is right for the organization & they don't have to get Armando's or my opinion on it.
"So Pouncey wanted to apologize but the Dolphins prevented him. And, according to sources, Pouncey wasn't the only one who wanted this issue handled differently. I'm told several people within the organization wanted to have Pouncey apologize and let the issue simply die right there.
Those folks obvioulsy lost the argument. The winner of the argument?
Philbin.
He wanted the bunker approach and got it.
I assume the coach figured not saying anything and definitely not apologizing would make the issue go away quicker. He was wrong. It makes the issue linger because the question is still out there, new details now arise from Maurkice that Mike wanted to apologize, and there's the whole idea of the coach going against owner Stephen Ross's stated approach on how the club is going to be run.
You'll remember in March of 2012, Ross said that to the extent it didn't hurt any competitive edge, his team would be run in an open and transparent manner. He said the team had to emerge from "the dungeon" of the past tight-lipped football administrations."

its tough some times to deal with Omar's fins bashing (mostly THill) & Armando's very strong opinions.
