Okay, I know its not a real football game, but can you believe we are 1 week away from our first preseason game???
Ahhh, this match-up conjures up memories of one of the greatest football games ever.
I doubt it will be as exciting as ’85. But it will be our first wiff of football, which is good enough to sustain me another week.
Here are a couple of predictions:
In limited action, Jay Cutler will continue to be Jay Cutler. I don’t expect to see much of Cutler or Tanny. In Cutler’s case, look away…just look away…its grotesque…
After a few minutes of lining up against Suh, the Bears, not the Dolphins will become the leading contenders for Evan Mathis.
The game also gives us a good chance to see where the offensive line is against some one other than Suh
The outcome will matter less to most of us than this Japanese Game Show. Sure its fun to watch the Dolphins, but what we really care about in August is avoiding major injuries…and swallowing cockroaches too…
I bet you have some predictions too…
let em rip!

http://espn.go.com/blog/miami-dolphins/post/_/id/16091/dolphins-coaches-have-a-new-nickname-for-ndamukong-suh
—-
However, Dolphins coaches recently came up with a new nickname for Suh that they use internally.
“His new name right now is ‘Chief’ around here, so you know that,” Miami defensive coordinator Kevin Coyle explained. “He’s the big chief, kind of like Robert Parrish was back with the Celtics back in the day. And he’s a guy that is the leader of the tribe and we’re real fortunate to have him. He doesn’t say a whole lot all of the time, but when he does, you listen.”
a lot of people call me chief at the miami va I keep telling them I wasn’t a chief and I only made it to e5.
I’m going to call you Patriot if you keep defending the Pats! lol
i just want to c a fair and correct verdict not someone being accused and convicted falsely. I know some on here don’t care if pats or anyone gets wrongly convicted as long is it benefits dolphins
Unbelievable! Mets P Jerry Blevins reinjured his formerly fractured arm tripping off a curb. He’s done for the season.
lol.
Sounds like Joe Toledo!
time to bring up a young minor leaguer.

I’m not sure that I want them to unfairly get punished, but I do think they tried to cheat, and are being punished for just that. Whether the psi was exaggerated or not, they were intentionally altering the pressure, there’s just far too many things pointing to that.
there’s just far too many things pointing to that.

Far too many things like what? So far everything that the NFL said was probable the pats have countered with counterattacks of expert witnesses. I believe one was a former fbi agent of 29 yrs that is a college professor at usc. They had a nobel prize winner rebuke the gas physics explanation that the nfl witness explained. If the Pats were guilty then why did the 3 of 4 balls become underinflated because they were cheating or the footballs lost pressure naturally. If I remember their balls were tested about 15 minutes after Pats balls and NE had the ball before halftime started. Think about that…is it natural? I know u to be one of the smartest on this board

I tweeted him that info, not sure if he read it yet though.

Was it Joe Toledo who slipped either in the shower or in the whirlpool and screwed up his knee again?
Yeah I think it was.

good to c u manitoba and no u r ok. didn’t know they named a city after u
Thank ya Sir.. that was a pretty interesting Tornado.. and what city was named after me ?? or do you mean an entire Province .. 🙂 .. Province is French for State.. in case any one wondered…
damn they named a whole providence after you. You must be very popular
We have a Lot of Poplar trees here yep.. 🙂 nice reading and short yappin… heading home now.. Happy Training Camp..
Quick fact about Poplar wood: because of its composition it actually sharpens your carbide as you cut it rather than dulling it.
That should make it even more poplar than it is now. lol
wow watching preseason games is gonna cost $100 this year with game pass? that sucks
$20 was reasonable, $100 is not happening. At least not for me it isn’t.
I might bag it as well. why did they change it? NFL is so greedy.
You just said it bro – GREEDY!
any1 watching the debate tonight. I’m watching just to see Trump and how he incites the others
I’m at work. Let me know if things get wild

the difference between the PSI readings between the Colts and Patriots tested balls is dramatic
the Patriots balls far below the threshold
The difference with the test results for the colts balls was more likely a result of natural release of air – b/c it was so minimal
but levels in the PSI for the Patriots balls were too much and much greater than the Colts in the same weather
Like Mike said
there are just far too many facts pointing to the guilt by Brady and the Patriots
Its easy for Patriots fans, ownership and even the media to poke holes int he evidence
But when you look at the weight of the evidence as a whole
its hard to conclude that Brady did not direct his guys to deflate the balls
The actual PSI readings are the most obvious factor that the footballs were manipulated by some one
levels in the PSI for the Patriots balls were too much and much greater than the Colts in the same weather—only 1 football measurement was 10.5. and all the other measured with 1 lb of legal 12.5 to 13.5 is legal psi allowed .
more likely a result of natural release of air – b/c it was so minimal. INTERESTING—the colts balls were not refilled because they were slightly underweight. 3 of 4 underweight when their qb preferred 13.psi as recorded pre game. Their balls were examined after the pats at halftime and their balls were not used right before halftime hence they were sitting in the cold weather unused in the cold. Plus they were waiting at halftime in 70-80 degrees in the referee’s locker room.
https://www.bostonglobe.com/metro/2015/01/26/scientists-agree-that-football-will-lose-air-pressure-when-moved-cooler-place/2KfFPHn9dARXXCwMgBMSkO/story.html
all the pats balls were within 1 lb legality except 1 at 10.5 psi the colts balls started at 13 yet the three of the four were not legal at halftime yet they were measured after sitting in referees 70 degree locker room longer. Something doesn’t add up
What makes the trees so popular
are they good looking, calls president, cheerleaders?
Cause most of the others are just real Birches
wow no one on blog said anything about 70 yr anniversary of hirshima, japan nuclear bombing
I talked about it all day on my WWII history blog but not on the Dolphins blog – huh funny how that worked out.
I posted a joke earlier about it
but it totally bombed
🙂
LOL
Nice!!!😜
It was that 70 years ago or see another 200K American GI’s killed taking Japan.
Cool thing, the internet is. I really dig that we have fans on our blog from the UK and Australia. That rocks!
It’s cool and speaking of UK we haven’t seen him in a while.
I’m sure he’ll be here when the season starts. I’m going to do the 1st Ask Mike next week of the 2015 season. What day is best, Thursday?
Probably unless Piggs says otherwise
Thanks asshole😎
Canada isn’t another country its more like a little brother we like to phuck with. LOL

Getterdone I live in Boynton Beach Brother.
i know where that is. My wife worked for a couple of weeks at the walmart in boynton. I had to drive her a couple of times. A lot of business’ off that road of 95 and plenty of other stores where you turn left(east) to reach walmart. I think I even remember a strip mall across the street from walmart.

It may not be Ask Mike, we have to get approval from Piggy. Don’t prematurely circumlocute just yet. lol
The big question is, will the BOTW be returning as well?

LOL @ Rob – I don’t hate your tent, quite the opposite. It gave us a good laugh.
Welcome Howie glad you made it. Your posts will show up now.
SUH baby he’s here!!!!!!!!!!!
Not sure myself Bri. I’m on the fence.
Howie,
Wallace, Hartline, Gibson are gone
Ellerbe, Starks and Odrick- gone
We have Kenny Stills, Greg Jennings and Devante Parker along with Jarvis Landry at receiver now.
Howie’s back! Welcome back man!
You know it’s funny, the media needs something to complain about so now that Tannehill has impressed them they’re now all about the guard position. But they’re not scouts or GMs or coaches but they know what’s up. LOL
The team will address the issue the best they can and it is what is. But this idea that one guard (Mathis) will correct all the issues is naive. It’s a collective group with the OL, 5 guys on the same page playing as a unit, not one guy, because he can’t block everyone.
We’ll go with the best 5 we have and that’s it. If we add Mathis fine, but he better be awesome or that’s a wasted acquisition at his reported price tag.
I soooo agree. All I hear is TD this and TD that all the time they can’t be that bad and we have a damn good defense.
They see plays that go into the line for no gain and they think the world is ending.
I don’t think it’s funny. Their job is to report what’s going on, both good and bad. There are always weak spots, and their job is to point them out.
Howie
Marino is STILL not the QB.

Hi Guys
It took me all off season to figure out how to get this new site going and the young lady another 3 hours to find my old Gravaar stuff so I could actually post 😉
THANKS SON 🙂
She did a great job. Tell her I said thanks.
Mike, I guess I just don’t trust the South Florida sports media anymore because they’re filled with agendas.
Ever notice I don’t go bonkers about the positive reports? Because I don’t really know what they’re seeing. This is practice and it’s different than a game.
Some reporters have more of an agenda than others, but I would think all of them realize that the 2 guard spots are a weakness right now.
wow on Hartline and I pretty much figured those D guys would be gone.
It’s one of the reasons why I love the Mets broadcasters. They totally keep it real. They don’t just blindly root and spew unicorn dust, they tell it like it is. I LOVE THAT!!!
Yup. I loved Gary Thorne .
I love the trio we have right now. All very knowledgeable, and they just tell it like it is. Gary Cohen knows as much about the Mets as anyone on the earth. he knows his shit!. Keith knows all the correct fundamentals, and Ron darling too.
Only thing is, will I be able to get on here in the morning when I try to do this myself 😦

howie, sounds like you need a lady for the morning as well as one for the evening too.
Watch Michael Liedtke win a starting guard spot when it’s all said and done. LOL
Tim, we’ll see what’s what next Friday. Turner and Douglas will probably both play the whole first half.
I see Pouncey leaving the game early with the 1st team but other guys going a little longer, even Fox and James. They need the work.
Howie. We also have a former Pro Bowl TE now , but lost Clay to the Jills
Mets fans, the Nats are chirping it’s their division to lose. Well sorry, if the season ended today you’re out and the Mets are in the playoffs. So it’s your division to win. 🙂
Go EXPOS
LOL
who would that be the nationals or marlins who was the expos owner at 1 time
I know some people find it annoying when I’m negative about the O-line, but I’m legitimately concerned about it, because it could totally derail our success, and we’re close to being what we need to be. It would be a shame to be let down by one unit, and it seems like there’s always something. My thoughts are if Albert is out the first couple of games, and you have a rookie LG next to Jason Fox, that could be disastrous. Could be, not definitely, but it could be. Even if Albert is playing, he likely won’t be 100%
It’s not about rookies, it’s about performance. Webb and Sims started as rookies at LT and LG the same year. La’el Collins is a rookie too. 😉
You’re just a anti-guardite. LOL
I get it Mike. You’re just going by recent experiences, which have been poor. When they actually go out there and prove something then you’ll relent. I feel the same way. I’ll be nervous until they can play well for the majority of the year.
Mike E,
Here’s a self help video for you:

lmfao, gruden is such a fucking idiot. i dont know if this will work but i hope you guys can see this tweet.
and nothing against tanne, just the shit fuckface says is all wrong
Thanks for the info
Caught up on the whole off season iv 45 minutes
GO PHINS!!!
And IF Tanny goes down to injury regardless of how we screwd anyways. Take a note from Tim. Always Look on thr Bright Sude of Life🎵🎶
Nice of you to finally show up Howie
He’s had his pants off for a long time and you finally zipped him up. LOL

Hopefully this year he can finally say, I TOLD YOU SO!
GO PHINS!!!

Doe RGIII make it out in one piece? I doubt it
Jets: expos became the Nationals
howie,
it was more the idiotic shit out of his mouth about the same system at a & m and about the o line. he is just an idiot.
Tim
Webb was the 9th overall pick, and Sims was the 39th pick. It’s not rookies, I loved me some Ju’Wuan James, you KNOW I did. I think they waited a little too long to get a starting G, that’s my opinion.
Draft status doesn’t always matter as you know. I see people falling over themselves over our 5th rd picks, all 4 of them. LOL
Ouch Rob! That was rough! lol
OCALA HOWIE: Just to make you totally feel at home, I pick the Fins over Da Bears next Thursday 20-10. YOU GOT DAT, BRUDDER??? Welcome back!!
I remember another # 9 overall. Mr Git Outta Bounds
He was way overdrafted, no doubt.
But we got the whole family !!!! 😀
DBolt: I absolutely LOVED the “Self Help video.” My earliest recollections are of life in an orphanage in Canada. I was luckier than most at that point. And I went on to be even luckier than that when I was brought to the states. My father told me “The harder I work the luckier I’vce gotten!” –AMEN!
“I’ve” gotten.
OUT FOR TONITE! –Y’all have a great Friday!
Howie
Dolphins 1,876.314 Bears 3

Great to be back and thanks for all the welcomes.

HELL YEAH!
Good morning…My Game Pass will automatically renew tomorrow(your7th),cost is the same in USD but because of the currency difference this year it will cost me $40.00AUD more. Last year I got all the oreseason games live and all of the RS games. Most weeks I stay up and watch the Phins live.
I got my renewal first about 3-4 weeks ago and then the second one just over a week ago. So I don’t know why GD didn’t get his.
what time is it there?
I will go into Gravatar and try to work it out from there to join up. Thanks for the advice. I rarely go into twitter or facebook.
next up on debate is obama’s foreign policies
trump’s response is going to be a bomb
he called obama incompetent
damn that carson guy is right on about our military cuts.
you know we used to have 2 carriers in Indian at all times just recentlty that has changed to only 1.
huckably is correct about the social experiment of gays,transgenders not working in military.
the newest a/c carrier has no urinals Ford,the next new a/c carrier is JFK. I have been given permission to have my ashes when I die to be thrown at sea. The JFK was my first tour of a/c carrier I served on.
rubio was right about the va–but he was wrong in the number of va employee’s who got fired. I think it was only 3 people at va who got fired. Shame veterans died because of bureaucrats falsifying records
