Still Da Bess
By Dave Reardon
Success hasn’t spoiled Davone Bess. The former UH great is in town after a great rookie season with the Miami Dolphins. But he’s taking nothing for granted, and promises to work even harder to continue to improve.Bess’ wife, Rachel, recently gave birth to the couple’s first child, 2-month old Kyra.”It was a wild year, a great year,” said Bess, who will be here in Hawaii for the next couple of weeks. He will appear Tuesday at The Willows for the Evening With Colt Brennan charity fundraiser.

Mr. Bess is a proven receiver that can make the miracle finger-tip catches that matter most at critical times for his Team. He did it repeatedly for Team Warriors and will continue to do so for the Dolphins…only now a Pro Team has to pay the Big Bucks for this great receiver. If the Dolphins don’t sign him now for his true worth, another team will! Good luck Mr. Bess, welcome home with your new baby! AlohaandOouuttt…

What a terrific player with a great attitude. He had doubters in college & the pros. It’s nice to see some guys finishing first.

Right on. . . Bess I have to admit, I never doubted your talent, but I thought you would have a Chad Owens type NFL experience. Boy was I wrong. Nothing against Owens. I still think that Owens just never got a fair shot to prove how much of a threat he was or is.

He is proof that you can be a nice guy and still finish on top in the sport of pro-football. He serves as a good role model to the Warriors and gives the team hope that greatness is in reach of anybody–you just got to reach out and find it. Way to go, Braddah! And I also say “Welcome home!”.
