It all begins on Sunday, we finally get to see Ndamukong Suh play in a real game for the Dolphins. We finally get to see the starters play a full game and tell for ourselves if the improvements we’ve heard about are real. I have two categories of players at the moment – Impressed and Almost Impressed.
Impressed
Ndamukong Suh – surprise surprise. The glimpses we have seen look awesome and he hasn’t even had his “real” game day face on. His leadership appears to be a guiding force for our team and he says things like, “I don’t want us to be good in spurts, we need to be great all the time” (paraphrased).
Ryan Tannehill – You look more in control, the ball is coming out quick and the best part of the season starting is that you don’t have to run away from our own front four anymore. Big year expected.
Cam Wake – poised to have perhaps his best season due to some new guy lined up next to him, Wake looks in incredible shape and should be a lethal force this year.
Jarvis Landry – love his approach, he looks faster. He’s a budding star in the NFL. Have a big year Juice.
Rashad Jones – Will feast in this D, looked great in the pre-season. Pro Bowl year?
Jamil Douglas – he said he was coming in to win a starting job – and he did! I don’t recall Thomas or Turner saying as much when they got here.
Brent Grimes – licking his chops, waiting for rushed and errant throws as the front four pressure makes QB’s make bad decisions.
Dion Sims – took the next step it would appear, the coaches are very pleased with where he is and its time for this young player to go out and make a name for himself.
Earl Mitchell – He looks so powerful and quick, playing next to that new guy he will make our D very stout up front.
Lamar Miller – I would expect at least another thousand yards, he should be a lot of fun to watch this year as he’s used more in the passing game but getting more carries than a year ago.
These are the guys I saw a lot from in the brief amount of time they have played thus far, they are essentially the core of the team as they go so go the Dolphins.
A number of others are close and given the opportunity they have now should be the difference between us being a decent team and a really good team.
Almost Impressed
Olivier Vernon – he really belongs on the Impressed list but coming from the blindside I need to see the sack numbers increase. He plays active, violent football.
Ja’Wuan James – another one who really belongs above but this second year man has another gear, we’re fixin’ to see it. James and Douglas on the right might be a couple of bulldozers.
Jordan Phillip
s – moved Guards and Centers backwards like they were on skates in the pre- season. As the mentee of the new guy, expectations are high for this big, powerful man.
Mike Pouncey – back in the saddle although he had an injury scare. Lead this line and win games, Tannehill can’t be on the ground as much as he has been in previous seasons. Drive the truck.
Walt Aikens – stepped in and never relinquished the job after Delmas went down. Keep it up young man, you play on a stellar D there should be balls to pick.
Greg Jennings – everything you hear is positive. He’s working with our young receivers, he looks good himself and his winning attitude is rubbing off.
Jelani Jenkins – perhaps a Pro Bowl year for this tackling machine. Would like to see more turnovers and negative plays from him.
Damien Williams – looks even better this year as a second year m
an. Expected to be a large contributor to the O this year and that’s a good thing.
Terrence Fede – Is Davie the Frankenstein laboratory? Are we building a beast? He should be a regular rotational player and a big part of what we do on Defense.
Dallas Thomas – won a starting job and has received outstanding reviews from the coaches. Hold down the LG spot and help this O go.
Obviously I didn’t list everyone, those are the guys that have earned a spot on the team and we hope to see big things from all of them.
A big “way to go kid” goes out to Matt Darr and Andrew Franks taking spots away from vets. No small feet (lol) out-kicking Fields that’s for sure. Thanks for the deep kickoffs Franks.
Now go pound the Redskins
Howie wants to do a weekly piece centered around your predictions, he likes when people give a preview of what they expect to happen, he’ll then use those to put together an article that we will likely run on Saturday.

GO PHINS!!!
Good read son – I was already licking my chops (like our D Line) but that’s got me salivating even more! Can’t wait for Sunday. Shame about the stinking Pats last night.
I’m thinking the first game won’t be a HUGE scoring game due to rust on both teams.
27-16 Miami
PS Been on my hols and getting caught up with news – hope the op went well Lee – thinking of Tim, Try and everyone else who’s going through tough times. Let’s hope Tanny and the rest of the Dolphins bring a smile to all our faces by playing a complete complimentary game. Go Fins.
Sorry I was late but I tried holding out for a logo and that f’n pig just laughed at me. LOL
Bastard Pig! lol
Oops
Didn;t realize you were expecting that this week
Yeah UK, I’m fired up.
The Steelers D looked bad that’s what I was afraid of.
The Patsies D got ran on – hard, if the steelers didn’t shoot themselves in the foot so many times it may have been different.
My brother will be at this game
Nice write Sonny!
Jordan Phillips is a manatee? lol
He’s as big as one.
Might be bigger
Howie
The Dolphins are going to be all over the Redskins, we’ll have a 17-20 point lead at halftime, and then just cruise to a 30-6 victory.
Like the Mets were all over the Nationals, the Dolphins will be all over the Redskins. No mercy!
My friend (Steelers fan) was worried about his D. He was effin right.
Both Defenses looked bad.
I didn’t see a lot of the game. Got home after 9:30, but yeah, it seemed as if neither team was really interested in playing D
I thought of this comparison. The current Patsies are = to the Dolphins in the Shula years and this current Dolphin team(although site unseen) is comparable to the Bills teams of the 90’s. Loaded with talent on both sides of the ball and looking to take away what you have.
Shula years meaning mid 80’s-90’s?
Even during the early mid nineties we were always a playoff team.
Mid to late 90’s we started getting much better on defense.
Revised preview for Howie on my 24-23 prediction
Dolphins go up 24-0 int he first 6 minutes of the game an 2 Tanny TD passes, a R. Jones In return.
They control the game from the inception
Miller has 100 yards on the ground before the half which helps set up a FG for the Dolphins
Suh and Wake eat Kirk Cousins before the half is over – the refs make up rule and award Redskins 10 points for QB eating
Dolphins starters are benched in 2nd half
Philbin challenges a Dolphins TD and the officials give the TD to the Redskins b/c why not and they don;t like the look of Philbin with his smug red flag
Oh no, its 24-17 now
Colt McCoy is sacked 13 more times in 2nd half
on final sack, with .06 to go he is sacked int he endzone
official with vision disability thinks its the redskins endzone and awards TF to redskins
Now its 24-23
Fede blocks extra point
Tanny does a back flip to QB kneel to run out final .06
Dolphins win!!!
I don;t understand why the Steelers D is so bad
they have really good LBs
I guess that secondary is shit
leaving Gronk wide open is not a good strtegy
they suck up front
My guess is the turnover in the secondary, and the retirement of Lebeau. And of course, their coaches had to listen to the patriots radio broadcast, which would make anybody sick

You wake up and Suh-denly
your a contender
Steelers have some good young talent, Tuitt, Shazier, Jones, but not a dominant NT, though I like their DE’s (Tuitt, Heyward). Dupree should be a real good player in time too, but he has to earn his time and learn the game. Problem is, that’s it for the D, secondary isn’t very good, although I like Shamarko Thomas, he’s got a lot to learn.
Nice WR corps too. When Martavis Bryant gets back, they have Brown, Wheaton, Bryant, Coates, Heyward-Bey

That stuff just amazes me. The Patriots spit on the NFL rules. It’s a joke
They have a team of lawyers to fight the NFL
“Strangely enough, whenever the NFL representative proceeded to the New England sideline to shut down their headsets, the Steelers headsets cleared. Then as the representative walked away from the New England sideline, the Stellers headsets again started to receive the Patriots game Broadcast.”
NO THAT WASN’T INTENTIONAL CHEATING. JUST A COINCIDENCE
Man! I am a reader. I like to read. I wish the fucking newsPAPER websites would start writing shit again instead of just posting videos. LAZINESS! (I can’t watch videos at work)
Good write up, Son.
Never forget!
‘The Steelers D looked bad that’s what I was afraid of.
The Patsies D got ran on – hard, if the steelers didn’t shoot themselves in the foot so many times it may have been different.’
no….just no no no. when is everyone going to learn. it has nothing to do with the other teams. the pats are the nfl darlings. they again this year will get every call and every break and be headed for home field advantage again. just it is time to face it. not going to change till roger and or tommy are gone.
Tomlin was pissed when they interviewed him about the headsets. He said every time they go that stadium, there’s something else that doesn’t work.
mike, just heard that on the radio. here is what they were talking about
it is basically the pats making a mockery of the nfl. why i am saying nothing has changed. things will be like they always are.
Howie
For my 31-10 score we score one TD in each of the first 2 qtrs. 14-0 at the half. We score 2 more in the third. Skins don’t score until we start rotating in 2nd – 3rd string players. We score a field goal in the 4th to close it out. I asked the magic 8ball…’you may rely on it’. 🎱🏈
sounds pretty accurate to me, except for the late FG with such a big lead. 😉
Matt Moore is in then. 😜
Rob
It’s a shame that this garbage goes on and takes away from the game.

The Patriots are screwing around with the blog. lol
LOL, I wouldn’t doubt it.
What’s the frequency Kenneth?
“I’m excited to get going,” said Tannehill. “We have talent all over the field.”
Talent = boogers?
He’s pickin the Phins to win.
Almost up to his elbow in there… Who says he can’t go deep?
Life is good when you own an NFL team.
Nice job son. I think our dline is gonna destroy the redskins oline. The allowed the 2nd most sack last year

The Steelers D looked bad that’s what I was afraid of.
They certainly employed a style of D that has largely gone out of fashion in today’s NFL
The Steelers didn’t do themselves any favors with execution, playcalling and clock management.
BTW I thought the pats cheated on that 2nd down on the 1 yard line lastnight. They all moved together while screaming the snap. The steelers jumped and called for false start and ended up kicking the FG. That should have been a penalty on the pats and probably a TD. cheaters cheat. that’s what they do.
‘Life is good when you own an NFL team.’
thus the reason the nfl will do nothing about the pats cheating. they are making so much money they dont care. i dont blame them, if i put out a shitty product and people still paid a hell of a lot of money for it why would i bother changing it.
There ya go!

LMAO, reply of the day!
The Pats D gave up 464 total yards last night…but the Steelers couldn’t overcome their own crappy D, silly costly mistakes, slanted refs, and headsetgate.
Steelers filling a complaint against the patriots because of last night’s issues, according to Yahoo Sports (per ESPN).
http://sports.yahoo.com/blogs/nfl-shutdown-corner/ben-roethlisberger–steelers–upset–about-patriots–defensive-formations-125657675.html
Never forget indeed.
It’s been 14 years but this morning when i looked at my phone around 9am and i got chills.
From the Yahoo Sports article:
In the immediate aftermath of the false start penalty, Pittsburgh quarterback Ben Roethlisberger could be seen vehemently arguing the call with officials. Here’s what he told reporters in the game’s aftermath.
“In my years of playing, a defensive guy can’t bark stuff or move in the middle of a cadence. The ref said, ‘We didn’t go in the neutral zone,’ and I agree with him. I wasn’t arguing that part. I was arguing the fact that he shifted in the middle of a cadence, and I thought that there was a rule against it. Maybe there’s not — maybe it’s an unwritten rule — I don’t really know.
“So, that’s what I was more upset about. They do that. We saw it on film that the Patriots do that. They shift and slide and do stuff on the goal line, knowing that it’s an itchy trigger-finger-type down.”
As it turns out, there’s no rule against disrupting a team’s cadence with a defensive line shift, so long as it doesn’t involve “words or signals.” To recap, the Steelers knew the Patriots used this tactic from watching film, committed a false start penalty on the sequence anyhow, and then complained about it afterwards.
My biggest problem watching the game last night was the Steelers D. BOY DO THEY MISS DICK LEBEAU. Without him they look vanilla (lack of creativity). All 4 TD from NE went to TE on TE routes (1 on an Hback route to Chandler on a cross moving pick type move). There’s no way Dick would have defended Gronk’s routes the way Pitt DC Keith Butler did…just 1 on 1 with no type of umbrella cover over the top. The pass rush kind of sucked for Pitt overall which is why I’m not surprised to see the Pats’ offense go nuts with that kind of pocket (no up the gut pressure often). NO WAY the Pats OL can be that effective vs Miami (i can’t fathom it).
GDP,
Amen on the NFL revenue sharing making all the owners not give a crap.
I thought about that last night when I saw Kraft walking on the field hosting that Lombardi trophy.
All I could envision is him holding up the NFL gold LOL
I hate to use the boxing analogy because tim knows how its my go to for things sports related but the one thing I always liked about a boxer such as Bernard Hopkins is that while he was percieved to be dirty, he had alot of good boxing skills. Later on in his career he didn’t need to fight dirty and won on his skills BUT if he encountered an opponent who got dirty with him, he’d take it there and bring the dirty moves back. I’m tired of these opposing coaches of NE not taking it to the Pats when they see shit like what happened with the Steelers last night. IF NE wasn’t getting flagged for their defensive alightment movement stuff; I’d order the same shit on the next defensive play and then REEM the ref if i were to get flagged. Also if my head sets weren’t working i’d walk over and start a fight with the Pats sideline coaches.
Nice write Son, but man have you been hitting the kool aid hard.
And think I know what you were listening too as you typed. 🙂
Mike E made those glasses and caused Bob to turn into a drunk.

Oddshark’s computer model is predicting a 24-22 Dolphins win. Judging by how they analyze the Fins D numbers, they are not accounting for the Suh factor (using just historical analysis). None the less I respect the work that goes into handicapping.
Their computer model predicted a 30-24 score in favor of Pats last night.
Vegas has us 3.5 point favorites.
I’d take us by that in a second.
I don’t know what everybody is complaining about?
I saw 2 teams last night that we are going to destroy when we play them!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 🙂
I AGREE
Me too!!!
That’s exactly what I said while watching the game & eating wings.
The road to the AFC title doesn’t look insurmountable.
The Pats couldn’t even play the season opener without their nonsense. It’s fucking unreal!
BTW, nice write there Sonny.
Yes we do have a nice list of ‘Already Impressed’ & a nice mix working on ‘Almost Impressed’!
Go Phins!
Stanger,
Road favorites by almost 4, you bet (no pun inteded) :).
That’s a 7 point swing basically when you consider the default -3 for the home team.
Pats D way underimpressed last night, even with Pouncey out.
But — much as it pains me to say — Brady was his normal capable self.
I thought the secondary scheme was positive for the Pats but of course their front 4 were not as effective as I thought considering the OL of Pitt missing pouncey and also LeVeon Bell (though DeAngelo has always had his moments in the NFL where he explodes).
Yeah — there back 4/5 made up for it a bit, but the front two lines were underwhelming. And actually think our O scheme will match up to their personnel a lot better than Pitt’s did…..but then we are talking the evil genius here. What we saw last night might not be what we get.
OD,
If you are out there, are you going to the game tonight?
Juice is gonna FEAST!
Jarvis Landry is expected to run most of his Week 1 routes against Redskins CB Justin Rogers.
With normal Redskins slot CB Bashaud Breeland suspended, Rogers is expected to get the call in nickel packages between outside CBs Chris Culliver and DeAngelo Hall. Rogers has bounced between five different organizations since entering the league in 2013.
“In the first quarter of tonight’s game, the Pittsburgh coaches experienced interference in their headsets caused by a stadium power infrastructure issue, which was exacerbated by the inclement weather.”
And luckily the Pats have a bunch of scientists on staff to explain how the weather can make unexpected things happen.
Adam Schefter @AdamSchefter 12m12 minutes ago
Former 49ers’ LB Aldon Smith is signing a one-year deal with the Raiders, as @JasonColeBR reported. Smith stays in Bay Area.
Is he suspended for any games this year? It’s hard to keep track of that guy
Of course he did.
Some habits die hard. 🙂
The evil genius has a message for all reporters out there…….and you guys too.
—————————————————–
“I’d just say, you know, tying this [the headsets] in with a couple of things from last week, or earlier in the week, I just think overall it’s kind of sad, really, to see some stories written that obviously have an agenda to them with misinformation and anonymous type comments [on FU…I assume]. Writing about warm [gatorade] and trash cans [looking for play sheets] and stuff like that, I mean it’s just, I think it’s a sad commentary and it’s really a very . . . it’s gone to a pretty low level. It’s gone pretty deep.”
It matches their agenda for cheating. Imagine that!
And it’s always your team involved. Funny how that works.
The Raiders just got some teeth!
Adam Schefter @AdamSchefter 6m6 minutes ago
An Aldon Smith-Khalil Mack tag-team might be NFL’s best 1-2 pass-rush combo. AFC West loaded with great pass rushers.

Isnt Aldon Smith suspended for like the 40th time? How can it be the best 1-2 punch if there never is a 2 in that equation?
He’s expected to be suspended again.

Suh-denly….life has new meaning to me
Are there some hearing impaired people here I am not aware of?

I cant write all that…
What I am talking about is a brief description of like a game changing play, big play, game winner.
Anything good or bad.
Thanks and I think I can keep up with that
Howie’s How It Goes Down!
Okay
simplify mine to
“Suh eats Cousins”
We win because we’re good and Skins are poop.
Howie, you have to learn to cut and paste brother you’re killing yourself. You can fly an f’n plane I’m sure you can copy and paste.
Howie: 27-20 MIA
Defense dominates, but gives up cheap TD near end, and the other Washington TD aided by turnover deep in Miami territory. Offense still working out some minor kinks.
LOL twice — if it is 27-20 do you still win if the other stuff doesn’t happen. 🙂
“Q: Why Miami? Was it just the money?
SUH: No, definitely not. I definitely left money on the table.
Q: You did?
SUH: There’s no question about that. I could have gone a couple other places and gotten more money. I think from the front office, the ownership group, this was one of the special ones.

Stop it, he’ll believe you.

And please lets
KEEP IT REAL!
Tanny is flawless operating like a surgeon for over 300yds & 3 TD’s while completing 79%.
The Phins Defense was a fortress that surrendered no TD’s in the dominating Dolphins opening game WIN!
^ 34-12 ^
I can copy and paste but flying a plane and knowing all the rules is easier.
I just cant copy them all to the same page.
I’ll get Meghan to help me with that this evening
Piggy I got yours but yes I did shorten it
Be back later
This from Jenkins……..yeah teams run away from wherever Suh is.

“It was clear Day 1 as soon as we put the pads on. Just how much disruption [Suh] causes. I’m kind of learning and getting better just playing off of him. Whatever he ends up doing I just go the other way and a lot of times it’s wide open for me.”
Adam Beasley @AdamHBeasley
Injury report: Jason Fox (concussion) is doubtful. Looks like everyone else will play.
Nice!
“Miami Dolphins -4 (@ Washington Redskins) — “There is a mismatch on the board and it is Washington and Miami. Aside from San Francisco, no one had a worse offseason than Washington. You’ve got RG3-and-out. He is not even a factor anymore. Their offensive line somehow got worse from last year. In the preseason it was abysmal. The Redskins have covered one of their last eight at home. I’m taking Miami. Lay the four points. They are going to win by three touchdowns.””
http://finance.yahoo.com/news/espn-nfl-gambling-expert-dominated-160558196.html
Things look so good that I’m almost worried about Sunday being a “trap game”……but guess that is what comes to your mind when you think you are going to win.
Come on man, those days are gone – we legit now. This is a ass whoopin, what can the skins do on offense or defense to stop us? right, nothing!

They let him go. In other words he’s with the Cardinals.
he’s in the 70’s and he taught the lb coach that was promoted. He will do good in Arizona

NO he’s with the TITANS—-dude is 78 and looks like he’s in his 50’s

‘Suh is here, everything is different now!’
nope, brady is still playing, the pats are still up to their ways. everything will be the same this year too
I agree. As long as one team can cheat and get away with it the NFL will be same ole same ole. Its not even fun to watch because it seems rigged

here’s about 20 different stories about d
boulder,
i agree. i even turned it off last night especially with that headset radio bs. it is like the pats are just laughing at the nfl. they could careless, they will just do whatever they feel like it knowing they are still going to make a bunch of money and get the wins no matter what bs they pull. they were saying on the radio today there is like 5 teams complaining about that bs with the pats.
i will still watch the fins games, it is a 40+ years habit. not like i will stop, but the nfl holds no value anymore with me. i might as well watch the nba
It’s WWE type greed, which has spread to all sports it seems…NFL, NBA, Nascar, etc.
I didn’t watch much of the game last night because I’m sick of the Pats and seeing their fucking faces.
tim,
it was like waiting for some big movie sequel to come out and when it does you just say, this is just like the first one. there is nothing different. what a waste of time
Yeah that’s kinda it.
I may be misremembering but didn’t we get penalized a few years ago for advancing the ball during a fumble recovery? Which I don’t think that’s the rule but it’s what I thought of when they scored or nearly did last night.
Yes and that still pisses me off. Instead of 3rd and long for the Pats after a strip we got a 15 yard unsportsmanlike penalty and they got a new set of downs. All Vernon was trying to do was recover the ball. Total BS!
well in the good news department. at least we dont have to hear about serena williams all weekend long
Herd
That was infuriating that penalty against MIA > Vernon was trying recover the fumble, and he inadvertantly knocked it forward (towards our endzone), and thy called that bullshit penalty. I was driving home from CT when that happened, I couldn’t see it until I got home on replay.
BTW – Only Andy Pettitte “misremembers”. lol
It was a judgement call for sure but given down and distance and field position, there is NO LOGICAL REASON why Vernon would want to advance the ball so the refs basically took an extreme interpretation of the rule and did whatever he wanted with it.
Yes, in FAVOR OF THE PATRIOTS, as usghe
I never saw that called before.
Mike E,
Yep, just like the arshole referee who decided “Brady was ‘attempting’ a pass” when he fumbled it vs the Raiders in the playoffs in which the NFL subsequently invented the ‘tuck rule’.
Tim,
Agreed, much less with no one in the area to recover the ball except the guy flagged for it LOL.
It was actually that Vernon pushed the ball back after a sack
He was trying to recover it
and the refs said he swatted it backwards – which is illegal
but not if its incidental
So its not technically advancing the ball
its pushes it back, in case you don;t recover the fumble to hut the offenses field position
I thought he was trying to recover the ball
and it was a bad call for that reason
but if there is a fumble on the filed
the defensive player cannot swat it further back to gain an advantage
Its the Holy Roller play
The Holy Roller play was the Raiders pushing the ball into their endzone for a TD, and it was about 30 yards in total.
This video contains content from the NFL who has blocked it from playing on this we site…..
#40, Vilapiano I think, also illegally moved the ball forward to.
Simple, just put the ball back to where the player allegedly pushed it and that’s the spot. You don’t reward the other team that got rushed and stripped. That makes no fucking sense!
Herd thanks for bringing this up and pissing me off again. LOL
At this point, I’m glad the Pats and their fan base are riding a blind high. The Fins just need to take care of their own and then Suh & Wake will feast. Against the Pats I reckon Fede will be a better matchup at RDE to CLUB down those cheating holds the Pats OL like to do.

Dolphins are cutting Logan Thomas and Jacques McClendon and promoting Jonas Gray and Sam Brenner to 53, per league sources.
Interesting.
That’s a bit odd. Why cut Brenner for McClendon then reverse it days later? Logan doesn’t surprise me. They probably saw enough. LOL
Someone finally got a clue.
Piggy,
Please seek refuge ASAP

The Dolphins’ other incentive with cutting McClendon was to avoid guaranteeing salary for full season, which is required if on team 4pm Sat.

…Dolphins activating Gray because they want big back available with Ajayi out. . will look at signing QB Logan Thomas to practice squad.
SON-OF-A-SON: NICE JOB on “Real Games That Count!”
———————
And speaking of “REAL GAMES,” tonight’s game featuring the U.of Miami at Florida Atlantic is the ultimate REAL GAME if you are a fan of the 3-touchdown underdog FAU Owls!! –They have sold STANDING ROOM ONLY TICKETS for tonight’s game at Schnellenberger Field!! –And the namesake, himself, Howard Schnellenberger, will be present along with his beautiful wife, Beverly. Howard, who coached MIAMI to their first National Championship when they defeated Nebraska 31-30 in the Jan. 1, 1984, Orange Bowl, has made his feelings known for this contest. –He will be rooting for FLORIDA ATLANTIC, WHOSE PROGRAM HE DEVELOPED beginning 15 years ago. Look for the HUGE STATUE OF HOWARD inside the stadium!!
——————–
Boca Raton police and the highway patrol have warned of major traffic jams on I-95 two hours before kickoff – – a first in the history of the program. Logic, and the opinions of south Florida football pundits, dictate that this game WILL NOT BE CLOSE AND SHOULD BE OVER BY HALFTIME!! But this old FAU alum (Class of ’69) hopes that the experts are wrong. ONE PLAYER, FAU’s senior quarterback, Jaquez Johnson, can keep this game competitive if he equals or improves on last week’s performance (over 250 yards passing and almost 100 yards rushing). IF that happens, FAU will be in this game!! –FFR-I know your son is going to FAU. –I sure hope he, and all other fans of FAU’s young program, have something to cheer about tonight!
——————–
GOOOO-O-O-O OWLS!!

Just another service I provide here Lol
LOL
One less Bills player vs Miami 😊
Don’t think he was one to worry about anyhow.
Puzzling over why Logan Thomas is on our 53 though…must be cause they don’t have “Cannon” Fields to step in at QB any more.
Not anymore.
Thomas got cut (see Barry Jackson tweets posted above)
My bad.
Hi OD, big demand for the game (lots of UM fans wanted in). My dad (UM alum)tried to get tix through his UM connections but they were swamped with too many requests. He looked on stub hub and saw tix going for 100+ at low end so he opted to not go to Boca tonight lol.
