It’s finally here. We’ve waited and waited. There has been speculation on every detail of the team, who would stay and who would go? Who would be drafted? We’ve discussed the big offseason SUH-PRIZE! We’ve discussed the players who were injured last year and are they going to be ready? I’ve even seen discussion on uniforms. Now we get to see the first glimpse of our 2015 MIAMI DOLPHINS! It’s time to say a big FU Welcome Back to Football! It matters not to me that it’s a preseason game. It’s a game and I’ll be happy to see it.
We’re planning on updating the blog as the day goes on with links to any information that becomes available as game time approaches. That’s the plan, but since it’s a workday for most of us, it may or may not happen. And seriously, most of you don’t read the articles. You’re probably not reading this now.
Game Viewing. According to 506 sports, these are stations who will be broadcasting the game live:

(NFL Network replays air Friday and Tuesday, August 18 at 10 a.m ET.)
SUH IS HERE, EVERYTHING IS DIFFERENT NOW!
(I added that last part, your pal son)
I have this: WRDQ (27 – Orlando) Woo Hoo!
Look how excited Jay Cutler is about tonight’s game
C
(Piggy added this part)
Well he isn’t here any more…
Finsmob Unleashed 
Finally we get to see some real football action
First!
I read it Herd and thanks to all for the work they put in here.
It’s ridiculous that the game will be played whilst I’m asleep, but sounds like most of you folks have been priced out of it anyway, which sucks.
Congrats Boulder. Nanu, Nanu, that makes two.
Great win for the Aussies vs the All Blacks btw Lee …. I’ve set the recorder for the rematch in NZ!
Second 😦
UK, I’ll watch it when I get up. Won’t stay up to watch it live tonight. During the season I usually stay up.
You mean to say we beat the All Blacks. Wow they have owned us for a long time now.
Last 10 games were 8Ls and 2Ds. VERY good win!
First American!
LOL
I set my alarm for 1:15 this morning, and woke my son up as well to watch the meteor shower. I saw about 6-7, and he saw about 10. Some of them were pretty cool!
*
Congrats again Boulder!
Awesome, I forgot and snoozed through the night.
I remembered and snoozed through the night!
thanks man.
Congrats to Boulder (better you than me) enjoy and have fun bud.
A boy named Suh?
Jarvis Boulder?
congratulations Boulder..
you guys that can’t get game for tonight might want to consider radio website
Son,
I think the mereor shower will be tonight as well, although not as spectacular.
*Meteor
The less the merrier?
Congratulations Boulder! Mazel Tov!
Great news, and best of luck to you and your wife.
First Jew!
LMFAO!
Is it just me, or is everthing italicized? Fancy huh? 🙂
It’s just you Herd. Sometimes the IP (Firefox, Google Chrome, IE etc) you use reads the font differently.
That makes me feel special! 👑
I didn’t see the meteor shower either. Damn!
All is not lost:
http://earthsky.org/astronomy-essentials/earthskys-meteor-shower-guide
Better a meteor shower than a golden shower.
I just refreshed and the site is in Hebrew.
Sorry, my fault
Anti-fontite!
LOL
Mike/Tim,
How about Degrom last night?
The pitching is outstanding. Keep on rolling.
Loved it! 3 1/2 games baby!
Wouldn’t want this guy as my QB.
I wouldn’t go so far as to say he deserved it, but he certainly was asking for it. It annoys me when they say he was “sucker punched”. The way he was hit was the polar opposite of a sucker punch.
Herd
You ARE special! 🙂
Bri/Tim
Know what the best part of this hot streak with the Mets is? My wife has the game on and watches without me now, she’s ALL in. I love that! She listens to the games on the radio too.
The women always come back to the games when they are winning!
She even admitted that to me. She said she couldn’t watch if they were terrible, she just likes it because they’re in it now.
Hopefully Syndegaard can bounce back from his last outing. It would really show us something about him if he can rebound quickly.
Bri
I agree. They were saying the very same thing this morning on NFL radio. He incited his anger by by wagging his finger in his face, and actually making contact with his face.
Yup.
He’s a punk and that’s not what you want at QB. He not only got his jaw broken, he lost his team.
and he looks like a pussy now to boot.
This is pretty cool:
http://www.grindtv.com/wildlife/playful-orcas-visit-dog-in-a-once-in-a-lifetime-encounter-off-washington/#9Vcpsippq5U3VY5M.97
Very cool!
Hell yeah!
Can you get the cheerleader of the day pic this big?
Thanks everyone. I appreciate it.
If you were closer I could give you some baby gear!
my wife kept a lot of the stuff when we had our other child. thank you for the offer though.
If anyone finds a link to tonight’s game please post!
There are a couple of sites at the top of the blog, VIPSports and FirstRow
Yeah, I totally missed that. Thanks!
BTW, we have a new principal at my school this year. He seems like a really good guy to work for. His favorite NFL team? The Miami Dolphins. We’re going to get along just fine.
Wow! That’s lucky for you! What are the odds . . .
149,783-1
Not good up here! VP is a Pats fan. The three of us had a meeting the other day and at the end of it he said he was going to bring a live dolphin to school, shoot it in front of us and hang it from the roof.
Then he’ll find out he likes to collect dead mice and puts them in dioramas while listening to Hanson.
It going to make taking a few days off for the Fest MUCH easier!
LOL @ UK!! Sounds like the VP needs a good ass-kicking!
LMAO! Last year was pretty rough.
He’s a really good dude though- I’m lucky to have bosses as good as they are. They allow me to teach what I want, the way I want withour breathing down my neck.
Okay guys, headed to Saratoga for the races. I’ll be back on later for the game. GO DOLPHINS!!!
Later Bri – Enjoy!
Thanks!
It’s game day bitches!!
STAND THE F*** UP AND MAKE SOME NOISE!
It’s pre-season. I’ll stand, but I can’t make noise in my office. lol
Miami Dolphins Cheer @MDCheer 19h19 hours ago
@MDC_BrittanyM was Miss February last year. Find out who Miss February 2016 is tomorrow on http://dolphinscheerleaders.com
That’s premature Februication!
Curious to see who starts on the O-line, and at CB, and how they fare.
I’ll be watching the game tonight ON MUTE :). Can’t stand Nat or Bob (horrible announcers lol). At one point, Bob was ok to listen to but these days he seems to not bother anymore with putting in any work prior to the game in identifying who will be on the field lol (he often makes mistakes identifying people).
Mike E,
In preseason game things may be sloppy.
I’m eager to see the rookies and the volume of snaps some of them will receive.
Hopefully not too sloppy
We will likely get to see DTInfinity in a Bears uni tonight
The 1st PS game is notoriously sloppy mainly due to so many guys getting into the game so there is no continuity.
WOW, Really? Is that so??? 😉
^dick LOL
Gotcha back from last nite…lol
baby boy name: Tripp Boulder 🙂
Can’t name a liberal something so Palin-esque.
LOL

should have told him, sorry you have to go thru all that trouble, all i have to do is hang up a deflated football
So Boulder and wife are having a baby, I kept seeing congrats last night but not exactly what it was about. Congrats man, awesome!!!
thanks buddy!
LOL @ GD
Trypod, good one…lol
Ok, how bout Huckabee Boulder
Better.. Lol
oops, Barry Soetoro Boulder 😉 there I fixed it.
I don’t think the wife will go for it 🙂
The name is gonna be dependent on the phins season and how far we go. If we get to the superbowl then it has to be phins related. Maybe Ryan maybe philbin LOL
Never Philbin, well maybe Bazooka Boulder 😉
What’s funny are the names being attached to Boulder. LOL
Does sound cool to me….lol
Don’t know his real last name but how about Boulder (insert last name here)
Boulder would be a cool boy’s name either first or middle name!
OMG, I’m turning so liberal…Heeeeeeelp 😉
All I expect to see from tonight’s game is properly inflated footballs, oops, that’s from jetssuscks new Pats blog.
For the Phins game tonite I expect to see Matthews continue to work, plus the backup TE’s…the kickers, of course the OG’s get some good work in….same with the LB’s & backups, and secondary depth, the back up RB’s.
wouldnt boulder and his wife being having a pebble
Just some suggestions Boulder
DeepPassReturns Boulder
SuhSmashBrady Boulder
BlocksBetterThanWallace Boulder
NoMore8-8 Boulder
HahHahtheJets Boulder
There are some good names out there that are Phins related
Boulder’s baby?
According to the poll you guys want Jamar Taylor and Earl Mitchell to start
I’m putting up a new poll now
New Poll up
predict what happens tonight!
I want to vote for 2.
Too easy!
No Piggy, it’s a boy, not a girl. Bam Bam Boulder
He needs to change that Bengals outfit tho…lol
Tim & I predict a sloppy game and no significant injuries on the Phins side. 😉
I also predict the OG’s will look better not having to go against Suh & Mitch
I added a photo of sad Cutler 😦 to the blog
b/c it makes me laugh how much he pouts
Wahhhhhhhh wahhhhhhh
I can’t add photos from work, but you should put up a pic of DTInfinity in a Bears uni
Is he on the Bears now
Weee! its game day. Well if you can’t meaningless pre-season games it is.
^count^ not can’t
Nobody, I mean nobody is happier than me.
Congratulations Boulder! Ryan Joseph Boulderphinfan?
Congrats to Boulder.
Uk, do you find it humiliating to be premature first?
Uk 100% guarantees 50% satisfaction…
I held on longest – Lee got to the Vinegar stroke before me!

proof that no woman likes deflated balls
Piggy
Yeah, DT is a Bear now. Sure he’ll play tonight, I doubt Forte sees more than a carry or 2, if that.
Sneak preview of Jay Cutler’s uniform tonight
LMAO! Need a pacifier too!
LMAO
Are any of the preseason games covered by sunday ticket?
Nope!
I can’t find any pics of Daniel Thomas in a Bears uniform
I can only imagine how popular Daniel Thomas images in a Bear uniform must be. LOL.
boulder if you want him to have some fun name him
Pat Mi Boulder.
lol
I didnt think one thing Football since the Superbowl, didnt even try to get back on here till last week and it went by like its only been a bye-week.
For the rest of you it probably seemed like 2 years 😉
ITS GAMEDAY BITCHES!
GO PHINS!!
HELL YEAH!!!
5 years! How did you do it? LOL
Um…I think I’m sprained my ankle or something coach…better give the backups some snaps tonight
Any cable or streaming stations covering the preseason game tonight, i need my fix
Miami Dolphins at Chicago Bears (8:00 ET)
1. Damien Williams is the favorite for the backup running back job in Miami. Rookie Jay Ajayi has had a poor camp and is No. 4 on the depth chart. A good preseason game would help him immensely.
2. It will be our first chance to see Bears pass rushers like Jared Allen, Lamarr Houston, and Willie Young essentially playing out of position at outside linebacker.
3. With Kevin White (shin) out for the Bears, Marquess Wilson will try to show he’s worthy of a starting job.

I got a pic of DT up top now
Nice!! Thanks Sonny!
He looks like he is fumbling in that pic
Well I see he fumbled already! 😉
Congrats on the unplanned child, Boulder!! My youngest started highschool today and I’ve been thinking about how our house is going to change when she moves out in a few years. It almost makes me want another child.
FYI, Kong is a great baby name that will be REALLY big in the next few years. You could beat the rush on that name and say you were one of the first…
lol. king kong is my other kids favorite movie.

Story about Miami Dolphins players giving Saban a really hard time
I dont think Saban is right for the NFL at all, definately dont think he was right for us, but no one in a coaching position should be treated with so little respect.
Wow!
I think Boulder is leaning towards Seven, or Soda. Sorry Kong.
The great thing is Kong is almost as good a middle name as it is a first.
Seven Kong
Soda Kong
Boulder Kong
Tanny Kong
All great names 🙂
Typical pic of DT up top. He is not holding a ball. Probably fumbled it again.
well if we are picking baby names….Rockphin is just a smaller Boulderphin…
thanks rock, ken and everyone else.
Rock is tanny’s middle name joseph?
No it is Timmothy. Joseph is Philben’s first name…LOL
LOL
Nope, it’s Timothy

That article is almost unbelievable
Zach Thomas and Keith Traylor acting like that?
I’ve never heard of anything like that before
Saban was the boss when he was here
he wasn;t some college guy
he was sought after and paid heavily for
I think the respect was there an if it wasn’t – I don;t know I’m buying into that story at all
Per a Thursday court order, Tom Brady will not have to attend next week’s conference between the two sides.
The NFL and Brady’s team will meet in federal court Wednesday as they continue court-imposed settlement talks. Brady will instead be in West Virginia to practice with his teammates. Expect him to make his preseason debut against the Saints on Aug. 22.

West Virginia? Herd, run over to that practice and kick Marsha in the heel will ya!
wow this is big shark.

I saw that earlier. There are various stories as to who caught it, when and where.
it looks much bigger than 13 feet.
They are going to need a bigger boat.
still no worries
that is so appetizing for some reason….

It’s Game Day!!! #FinsUp #StrongerTogether
Yeah, I was thinking hierarchy of it would be:
(Rocky) Planet, Mountain, Hill, Cliff, Boulder, Stone/Rock, Gravel, Pebble, Grit, Dust…
Where is Canyon
Everyone forgets Canyon!
Its not his fault he was adopted
Kristy Canyon? I am a bad man.
Yeah that shark looks bigger than 13 feet.
its a typo
it should have said he ate 13 feet (this morning)
LOL
http://news.yahoo.com/blogs/trending-now/flight-attendant-does-over-the-top-performance-of-the-safety-instructions-190940416.html
a canyon is by it’s very nature an absence of rock / stone. Rock if not preceded with an a can be much larger than a boulder. The crust of the earth is rock. This is also called a rock. (bigger than a boulder. Stick to things you know piggy, like rectal dwelling hamsters….. LOL
see the little tiny boulder on the right?
I.e. a rock is small. Rock is vast.

Piggy, you shouldn’t feel too safe swimming ya know…just saying
that’s a tragedy
let’s have a moment of silence
Then there’s this innocent day fishing…lol
Noooooooooooo!
I got news for you
everything is bacon to him
OMG! That is violent!
That’s a tiger shark.
See if Chris McCain thinks this is funny

Piggy, just stay away from the water when you’ve been drinking.
don;t worry
the watch is waterproof
Lmao

LOL @ Piggy noticing the watch too….keen Pigeye there buddy.
He’s also packing.
can never be too careful
2nd Bills game just finished. Now on to the Vikings.
lol, wrong blog smh.
I’ve been spending the morning “sick” watching all the Fins wins from last year, amping up for the game tonight.
Are you watching old games?
I keep all the wins recorded on Directv and watch them occasionally during the offseason to get my fix, lol. I’ll have to delete them to make room for all the wins we’re going to have this year so I figured I’d binge watch some games and chat on the blogs.
The long offseason is over!!
Let’s go Dolphins!!
Kong
if you are sick, I assumed you are in December…
LOL, I don’t keep the losses so for the last few years there have been no december games.

WOW, Tanny, Suh, Wake, all changed their numbers.
Am I the only person left in America who speeds up crossing the street when a car is waiting to turn rather than slowing down and giving a look that says, “that’s right biotch, I’m in the crosswalk……deal with my power.”
Rev your engine at a few and you can change the expression on their faces…possibly the color of their underwear if you also lurch your car,
Never done that, but I’ve had to break hard on some when they are crossing against the light. Deer in headlights look until they know they ain’t getting hit…..then back to the slowest I’m cool walk you ever saw
Nope, that’s me too. I actually try to be civil in life. Strange I know but hey. LOL
