As Dover’s World Turns
Well, as I predicted, the Joe Zada saga has erupted into a veritable volcano of press and media coverage. It’s amazing what happens the minute an NHL star decides to go public with his story! It’s like, “RD has done 6 Olympics and has 4 medals. Whatever. But did you here about NHL star, Serge Federov, saying that Joe Zada embezzled 43 million dollars from him? Dover who?”I love it!
Finally, I don’t have to be the stand-out bad guy whining about Joe taking my money. Oh, what am I saying. I obviously will keep on whining and grumbling about it until Joe either pays everyone their money (which I honestly still hope for in my heart of hearts, every day) or is wearing a new striped outfit accessorized with soap on a rope.
I will keep that glimmer of hope burning like an ember inside me while I look forward to going on a short vacation next week to Fire Island, followed by a one day stint out to Denver for the interview to determine the next U.S. Dressage Coach/ Chef d’Equipe
In other words, I’m not bored! And there’s a lot to be said for that.
Cheers!
RD

I’m wishing you the best of luck on BOTH accounts! Have fun.

What motivates journalism is often arbitrary and fickle– it certainly in no way dimishes your equestrian accomplishments. Unfortunately, almost anything about horses (except racing or the polo pony tragedy) receives nearly zero press outside of equestrian publications.

Sorry…diminishes is the word~!

well as far as a small kids nj cancer organization in concerned we know you are our hope for chef d’equip. i believe that consequences of mr zada’s behavior will bring him shame and nothing is worse especially in the eyes of a child. it has been a teaching moment for us of how to handle those who intentionally cause us pain for their own self agrandizement. mr zada is it really worth it?
