One would think last year would have been a wake up call. And the early signs are that it didn't.

Hope he proves us wrong.

The problem I have is he's a team captain. If he wasn't a captain, it's whatever. But you're the captain - you set the example. If 98% of the team is there and your captain is the one missing two years in a row, it's a bad look. These days right now are about bonding with your teammates (it's why they're all wearing jerseys that say Commanders on the nameplate) - him not being there sets a bad example. If he wants to skip every year and not be a captain, that's fair game. But you're a captain - set the fucking example for the rest of the team.
