Remember that shit play against Washington to end the first half week 1? Wade admitted he was talking to the defensive guys and not fucking paying attention. He said he had veto power and he should have used it but didn't.
And of course, you have Jerry constantly saying who is and isn't starting before Wade ever does. Local sports station that I listens to caught a ton of those last season and I guarantee that it isn't stopping this year either. Jerry is so stubborn as to who should and shouldn't start. Barber outperformed Julius Jones as the backup, so therefore, he can't forget that. He can't forget that Felix had homerun potential despite the fact that he gets constantly injured and has gotten fat and slow this season.
Yet Choice will come in and preform admirably. He doesn't blow away the defense, run people over constantly, but he'll stay around 4 yards/carry. Jerry can't see that, he's just blinded by the past and it's the same reason he always holds on to aging superstars longer than he should, or make stupid trades for them (hello Roy Williams, Joey Galloway, etc).
Fucking drives me mad.
