... and I do hope the Dolphins' brass recognizes this fact.
In addition to Pennington's numerous arm problems, I have it on extremely good authority that Pennington suffers from a condition known as Osteitis Pubis (http://www.emedicine.com/pmr/topic92.htm). And it's not something that necessarily gets better very quickly. It affects your core at the base of your abs, and certainly hinders your ability to coil and throw. Perhaps even a Bo Jackson type of career-hindering injury. I would venture to say that Chad is in a lot of pain when he throws a football, and his chances of getting a final big contract -- which was his goal on borrowed time with the Jets -- were not an option from the Jets brass. The Jets knew of this years ago.
I would emplore the Dolphins to be aware of this medical diagnosis, and clear him if he has in fact fully recovered from it.
This is a guy who really can't throw the deep out on a rope, anyway -- a VITAL pre-requisite for an NFL quarterback. I don't want to throw money after a QB that limited, no matter how nice a guy he is.
