picturing Davante saying "SHEESH" just makes me laugh
Be nice to get a clear look into what happened. Fairly odd situation.
Enlund pretty much wites and/or blogs actual events or responds to press releases. As noted in another thread, some of the informative blogs have been posted by other JS staff. Hopefully, the JS even sent him down to the Virgin Islands for the Paradise Jam..... ::)

He may have traveled with the team. If that is the case, and since he is not on twitter (I know, I know), then he may not have had the opportunity or planned to write about it until they arrived.
Was listening to 540 this afternoon and Mitch Nelles explained the issue -- he was receiving text messages from Homer. He said the flight from Milwaukee was having issues with its weather radar system. They had the option of landing in Atlanta and fixing the plane or flying to Birmingham and catching another flight to the Virgin Islands. When they landed in Birmingham, they found out there were no flights that could get them to St. Thomas before their airport closed at midnight. They were looking at flying to Puerto Rico, but instead decided to stay the night and fly to the Virgin Islands this morning.
Hope that clears it up!

Bring back Todd
If they wouldn't send Todd to New York for Media Day, they weren't going to send him to the Virgin Islands for 4 days.

Maybe we need to pass the hat for the Urinal-Sentinel?
