The Miami Dolphins now at 7-3 come into the unfriendly confines of Met Life Stadium in New Jersey, on the very first NFL game to be played on Black Friday, otherwise known as the day after Thanksgiving Day. Defensively, the Dolphins are about the healthiest they have been all season, especially with the triumphant return of CB Jalen Ramsey who missed the first 9 games. The defense is intact, but unfortunately that is not the case on offense. The unit that carried the team for most of the season, the high flying 33 + points per game unit is suddenly awash with injuries. RG Robert Hunt who hadn’t missed a game since he was drafted in 2020 missed the last 2 games against the Chiefs and Raiders and will most likely miss this contest against the Jets. Rookie sensation RB De’Von Achane returned last week only to get hit on the same troubled knee and he is QUESTIONABLE to play as well. RB Raheem Mostert will play, but he is banged up with ankle and knee issues, although that shouldn’t derail him from getting the majority of the touches on Friday.
RG Robert Hunt hadn’t missed a game in his career until the overseas game in Germany against the Chiefs. He missed last week’s game against the Raiders after our BYE week and it appears as if he will be sitting this Friday’s game out as well. WE have struggled this season against strong defenses and the Jets have one of the better units in the NFL, especially the D-line. We’ll be sending out LT Terron Armstead, LG Liam Eichenberg, C Connor Williams, RG Lester Cotton and RT Austin Jackson. They will be facing a talented group led by DT Quinnen Williams. In addition, the Jets have Quinton Jefferson, John Franklin-Myers, Bryce Huff and Solomon Thomas, who in total have 17 sacks. They also have a solid LB crew led by former Ravens LB C.J. Mosley. Mosley leads the Jets in tackles with 101 (55 solo). In the secondary, the Jets feature one of the best young DB’s in the game, CB Sauce Gardner. If we’re going to score points on the Jets, we’re going to have to earn them.
The Jets defense is allowing 20.4 points per game to opposing offenses, good for #11 in the NFL. The Dolphins defense is more liberal allowing points, although with Ramsey back in the fold, and a healthy Jaelan Phillips, and I’d be foolish not to mention the resurgence of LB Bradley Chubb as well, the defense has been more stingy as of late. The last 3 games we’ve allowed only 17 points per game, but I think we’re trending to do even better. The Jets offense has been scoring an even 15 points per game. The Jets have scrapped the Zach Wilson offense and have handed the keys to journeyman QB Tim Boyle, Aaron Rodgers understudy in Green Bay. He’s also played for the Chicago Bears, and the Detroit Lions as he made his way through the NFC North. In all, Boyle has completed 60.8% of his passes for 607 yards, 3 TD’s and 9 INT’s. Not a sparkling resume by any means.
What the Jets offense does bring to the table that can give the Dolphins trouble are 2 young stars, WR Garrett Wilson, and more so RB Breece Hall. Both early draft picks in 2022, The Jets definitely hit on 2 stars with Wilson (RD1 pick #10) and Breece Hall (RD2 pick #36). Breece Hall however, is the one that concerns me more than Wilson in this matchup. I feel like with a healthy Xavien Howard, a healthy Jalen Ramsey, and Kader Kohou or Nik Needham in the slot, along with safeties DeShon Elliott and Jevon Holland, we can contain Wilson. RB Breece Hall started out last season on fire before getting injured in game #7. He is no doubt fully recovered and right back to being a punishing, shifty, elusive back. Hall has 544 yards rushing for a nice 4.6 yards per carry. Consider the fact he’s doing this with no complementary passing game and it’s more impressive. Dalvin Cook who the Jets traded for early on never really became a part of the offense. RB Israel Abanikanda who a lot of you guys liked around has been all but forgotten so far.
What it really comes down to, as always is what version of each team shows up. The Jets have had some excellent efforts this season, upsetting the Buffalo Bills 22-16 in the season opener, and then taking down the then undefeated Philadelphia Eagles 20-14. In both cases, it the defense that made it happen, and I feel like that’s the way they will need to win at Met Life tomorrow. Which Dolphins offense shows up tomorrow, the offense in the first 6 games that scored an unbelievable 37 points per game, or the offense that has scored a very humble 20.5 points per game over the last 4 games? That’s quite a disparity and a huge concern. We have struggled against strong defensive teams and the Jets are exactly that. Mike McDaniel is going to have to come up with a way to get more players involved and more importantly, successful against the Jets. Sauce Gardner will probably be on Tyreek Hill as much as possible, so Jaylen Waddle, Cedrick Wilson Jr., River Cracraft and if possible, even Braxton Berrios need to step up and make plays. RB Jeff Wilson Jr., who was a healthy scratch last week will be active tomorrow and be 2nd string to Raheem Mostert as De’Von Achane will probably rest after being injured Sunday and not play in the short week. Unfortunately, RB Salvon Ahmed was lost for the rest of the season with a foot injury.
Division games are always difficult, and the Jets will be fired up playing at home on the first Black Friday NFL game. The Jets window to remain in contention could close with a loss to put them at 4-7 on the season. On the other hand, a big division win against the first place Dolphins could energize the team and the fanbase. A Jets win would have every team in the division at 2-2 and bring them one game closer, especially considering how the Buffalo Bills are struggling. My first thought is that will be a very low scoring game, I’ll be pretty surprised if both teams combined score 30 points. I feel like the Jets are going to throw everything they can at us, including fakes, on side kicks, trick plays etc. This is damn near a must win for the Jets. If we want to be close to a top seed in our conference, it’s a must win for us to keep up with the Ravens who at 8-3 are the #1 seed, then the Chiefs and Jaguars. I took a look at the injury report, EVERY Dolphins player injured logged in a LIMITED practice with the exception of WR Braxton Berrios. Some are precautionary and conservative due to the short week like Raheem Mostert, Alec Ingold, Tyreek Hill, Terron Armstead, Austin Jackson, and Lester Cotton. TE Durham Smythe will surely be QUESTIONABLE, and one of the less likely QUESTIONABLE players to play. We could certainly use his blocking, but TE’s Julian Hill and Tyler Kroft got the job done last week. Let’s all hope our offense returns to early season form and the defense continues it’s trend of being stingy to opposing offenses scoring.
GO DOLPHINS!!!
Finsmob Unleashed 
Wishing the best for Phillips 😩but the team did what it had to do. Back to back seasons 8-3.
A history of the NFL by Al Michaels
Back-ups are in
Nearly 400 yards of offense against a good D.
Like we say every week, we just need to clean up the mistakes.
We imposed our will on the Jets and beat the shit out of them.🙂
This was the “tough” game in the 5 game stretch we spoke about
Upcoming
Jests at home, commanders and titans
We are going to be 11-3
YES, yes we are!
GREAT WIN, PHINS!!!
Here we go Dolphins, Here we go!!!!!!!
That was a beat down win tonight. Shame Phillips is injured, but the team did play strong defense. Tua still iffy with some decisions, but the team came to play today.
You sound like a Pats fan the last two decades.😂
How so?
Having critiques as we win decisively.🙂
No win situation today. Play as we did, well iit was against a QB that shouldn’t be in the league, lose or close win and it was against a bad QB
Either way we’re 8-3
Hoping Phillips isn’t hurt badly but the team did very well. Only negatives were some poor Tua decisions/ball security, and we basically played against a 3rd string QB. We played who they started so…Good Job, Fins!
Why do I feel like we lost? The Phillips injury got me sick. Ogbah looks so damn slow off the edge compared to Phillips. Hopefully, we can get what we got early in the season from AVG.
That injury hurts us, no doubt. Phillips was playing his best football, but now this gives an opportunity to Ogbah and AVG.
I’m feelin’ pretty good right now, we did what we had to do
Phillips injury isn’t having any effect yet, even though he’s my avatar
8-3 feels good, 11-3 will feel better
It’s nice to see us sitting in the #1 seed right now, even if it’s temporary.
Saw that. We are #1 due to our 6-2 conference record. Ravens are 5-3 in conference.
I am really bummed about the Phillips injury
😔
^^^^
Our SOV went from .306 to .313 🙂
Get to sit back and relax Sunday while we watch the Bills go on the road to play the Eagles.
Achilles injury for Phillips
Fuck!
Yeah, they said it during the game. Sucks ass
Barely saw Ramsey today, he tooopok away halllf the field uncontested
For that matter saw X even less
Dink and dunk by reputation
Dolphins win at Jets this afternoon CHECK
Jets win at Miami tonight ? Hope so .. weird day
I’m just going to leave this here!
NFS
Feel so bad for the guy. He’s been playing his ass off.
🫣
I watched the 99 yard int return a few times
On my last view I realized Al Michaels is a jests fan
He did every thing to make the call as unexciting as possible
He doesn’t even mention the prospect of a return until he passes midfield
And then it’s
“…..and Holland past misfield”
‘….and Holland inside the 40”
“….and Holland inside the 20”
And then I imagine him slamming his hat On a table and screaming
“can you believe this!”
He was crushed – you can hear it live

The most impressive thing today was our defense and running game. We stretched the Jets defense all over the field and wore them down. I loved the game plan.🙂
I am still impressed with that prolonged drive in the 3rd and 4th quarters when we just methodically went down the field.

Passer rating VS Jets Defense:
Tua – 77.5
Herbert – 65.4
Mahomes – 63.6
Allen – 62.7
Hurts – 59.5
You could play this game with any of the guys on the list, but take out that sort of throw away 2nd INT and Tua’s is a respectable 91.4.
He really only had those two bad throws.
He really played pretty well today against a really good D that has made some really good QBs look pretty average
I think Tua’s pick are a reflection of confidence. He thinks he can make every pass.
The second one for sure. The first one was him not reading the defender
True
Yep. Like I said a lazy ass pass.
Damn Cheetas wife is hot.
Would you expect anything less?
Really feel bad for Phillips but he’s in good hands with the procedure he needs. Man the kid was balling and looked like the pick we drafted him to be.
He was really balling. Looking like he was truly ready to break out
So did any of you NY’s go to the game ? I remember reading Mike E, Hulk, Possibly Brian and his son and of course the Flying 🐷. Oh and Mike was going to drag Tim to the game. MetLife takeover was cool.
No we couldn’t organize ourselves in time that and the holiday made it difficult to coordinate
Totally understand that.
And by the way, I haven’t been able to post for some reason. But I read you folks all the time.
Glad you are here Dog.
Thanks Man 👍
Bo Nix putting on a show
He’s looking like the Heisman favorite right now . I hope they get into the playoff. Fun team to watch.
I think the Heisman is his. Bigger question is where does he go in the draft
Wilson was a good RB2 today. He doesn’t present the homerun threat but against a D like the Jest, where staying on schedule is so important, Wilson consistently picked up between 3-5 yds. He actually had a higher average than Mostert, and was a very good compliment to our main back. He also had a big 3rd down catch and caught all 3 passes thrown his way. And he managed to stay healthy.
Our run game was pretty damned good today. We were able to run inside and out and had very few negative runs.
*complement
Our run game was huge today. I loved the way we stayed with it and just kept stronger as the game went on
It was nice to see the commitment and ability to grind it out. That 3rd quarter drive was over 9 minutes long and ended in a TD that all but won the game. Drives like that can make and break games.
Our Special teams played well. No big returns and we made all our kicks.
The entire team showed up and played well on a short week and in primetime. Good team win.
Go Dolphins!
Didn’t know this was a thing.
The bill was probably sponsored by the great senator from Texas ….

^^
Anyone notice the talking heads only pick 1-3 point games? Gee way to go out there.😂
Why do you matter?🤔
I did think we got a call by the refs on the facemask penalty. He did it but thought it would have been the 5 yard.
Agreed. The only thing is there was a slight pull of the head, which is probably what got it.
No more 5 yard facemask. They took that away years ago
Huh. I guess I forgot about that!
They finally figured it was too ambiguous as to what was an intentional or unintentional facemask. Ultimately it was too subjective. So any grab of the face mask is a 15 yard penalty
I’m not sure why I was disappointed with a 21 point win yesterday, but I was.
I think the mistakes are getting to me.. lol. While the D is rounding into form (losing Phillips was a gut punch), it was a woeful Jets offense. The D should have buried them and they did. That’s a plus.
The mistakes by Tua in the last 2 games, 3 TOs each game, with bonehead interceptions in yesterday’s game especially (a blind man could have seen the pick 6 coming) and the terrible chest high handoff (you learn that in Pop Warner), is concerning.
We won’t win any of our last 3 games with these performances by Tua and possibly lose 1 or 2 of our next 3. It”s time to clean that shit up! As in now….lol!
December football is here and you need to play better every game as a team to be ready for the next level-the playoffs-unless you just want a participation trophy….lol.
Correct Krishna. That’s one reason we haven’t been able to beat the better teams. It seems like in some of those games , it’s just an avalanche of mistakes that get us down big, even going back to last year. McD and his staff amhave got to get that cleaned up very soon.
I’m very excited/hopeful for this team, it’s been a long time! But, the last 2 games have been bittersweet.
The next four games are very winnable, but we are the only good team in the league that hasn’t lost “that game” yet, so let’s say 2-1. I’d be happy if we go 2-1 in the last 3. That puts us at 12-5, a damn good record.
*three games
Washington, Tennessee, Jets – Miami should win all of those. That puts them at 11-5 going into the final stretch. I think they’ll win the 2 home games. Ravens on the road is a tough out, but Miami did it last year so maybe.
I’m not overly concerned by the turn overs. The pick 6 was a lazy ass pass…I still hate WR screens.the other interception was a confidence interception. Tua expects his receivers to win every contested or tight pass. The fumble was just a bad exchange with a new RB. Marino threw 29 pick six, Peyton and Brees 27. Shit happens when you throw the ball. That said, half (5) of Tua’s INT have been in the last five games which means 4 in the last two. Needs to clean that shit up.
11-3 not 11-5
Yeah- the game we can afford to lose is the Cowboys game, although everyone hates them so you always want to beat them.
LOL…and 0-1 in the playoffs if we don’t start playing better and clean up the mistakes. Thanks for being here….lol.
Defeatist…
Lol…not at all! I want the mistakes to be cleaned up…you must not have read what I wrote…then, I think we can take it to the house!
Just messing with you
Figured as much…that’s why lol.

@PhinPhanatic
I really need Kevin Harlan to overdub Jevon Hollands return TD. Lol
Harlan is the best. Love when he does our games.
I went back and re-watched it after Piggy posted that, and was surprised at how right he was. It was probably the least enthusiastic call I’ve ever heard on a play of that magnitude, and he did seem kind of annoyed about it.
Harlan is my favorite broadcaster.
Leon Lett Day!
Pulling for HOU, LV, Philly, and the LAC tomorrow
Yes sir!
As bad as the Phillips’ injury is, at least have the Gink to fill in and Ogbah to spell him
Depth here is nice.
This team has the potential to beat ANY team in the league, including the ones we lost to….IMO. The mistakes have been critical and have a been a critical component in the 3 losses.
Leon Lett Day!

Holy shit, can’t believe that was 30 years ago.

Ken, thanks! Didn’t know that on the face mask penalty.
Good college football weekend. Don’t feel like listing, lol. Headlined by Ohio State at Michigan.
I hate FSU lost their starting QB Jordan Travis. They had (still have) a shot at the college playoffs. Hate it for Travis. He was looking at being a 1st round pick.
In 2 hours…really the only big game, imo. The others s/b walks in the park, but who knows. UF doesn’t have a chance imo with or without Travis.
I agree. It’s just the in-state rivalry games that make it exciting. Some are evenly matched which will make it a good game. Would love to see Auburn rise up and beat Alabama.
Yep…the good ol Iron Bowl
Oh…I stand correcting myself….Huskies and Ducks should be a good game. Go Washington!
That one also.
Laundry’s almost done…lol. Waiting for last load to dry!
Huskies and Ducks
———
That should be a fun one to watch next weekend. Both teams will need to win to get in the playoffs (mainly the Ducks).
Hoping Alabama gets beat by Auburn today or Georgia next weekend or BOTH.
Funny Alabama is the home team for the SEC championship game but it will be played at the Mercedes-Benz Stadium in Atlanta.
Same with the PAC-12 championship. Washington is home team but is being played at Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas.
Cracraft is a premium blocker. https://x.com/SiClancy/status/1728186001133384028?s=20
2 for 1…awesome!
I actually caught that on the replay watching the game. If he don’t get there it’s only about a 4-5 yard run.
Crazy watching the slowmo of the Phillips injury. You can see his calf explode. Man that just makes me sick.
Untouched…were they on grass or turf?
Fuckin’ artificial shit
Turf and I have heard players complain about the turf in that stadium before.
Turf
Well, there you go… at least in my mind. I’ve “seen” the evidence and it’s clear to me. And, the NFL cares about players’ safety…fucking bullshit!
Zach Wilson shows his team spirit.
https://x.com/ian693/status/1728170217782562983?s=20
Lol….I saw that yesterday…pouty little bitch.
Me too
To get a 99-yard INT return. you need blocking. Watch Chubb. Baker. and especially Wilkins prevent the OL from making a stop. Wilkins pushes his guy back like he’s on a kid’s sled.
Wilkins leveled his man 80 yards down field to spring Holland for the last 20 yards. It was glorious!
On Wilkins’s sack, I think they mistook him for a
slow fat guy they could leave unblocked
way outside,
and he’d never get to the QB on time.
Hahaha
Wilkins ate him like an orca on a seal pup.
LOL, it was beautiful!
I’ve actually witnessed that! Lol!
Remember this?
From the bad old days when even
some of our good players sucked.

Not Tua’s fault and not a drop by Tyreek. Sauce gets away with a lot of grabs.
https://x.com/GhostOfAdamGase/status/1728152261669392419?s=20
Hill still got both hands on the ball and it went through them. It was still a drop.
He had another drop in the game too. I think his hand injury was the bigger issue than Sauce.
Agree with the ape
Yeah I’m pissed at Tua for the pick 6 followed by a second INT,
but …
https://x.com/VBSofficial_/status/1728194641563128052?s=20
No excuses….imo. He should be better….just saying.
^
Or look at the complete stat line:
https://x.com/FinsFan2992/status/1728198019554890001?s=20
Against teams like the Jest and the Raiders, we can get away with the TOs. That shit won’t fly in the last 3 games of the year and the playoffs. It HAS to get better if we want to advance.
I think we all know this team is a playoff team…but we want more than just making the playoffs. We have 6 more games to get it ironed out.
NFS
Waddle was great yesterday
Chubb has been great for a few games now
Ramsey allows the rest of the D to flourish, including Fangio
It’s killing me seeing Phillips name there. I’m still struggling to enjoy the win because of his injury.
100%
We’ve got good depth. AVG played really well in Phillip’s spot earlier in the year, but recently we’ve been seeing Chubb, AVG, and Phillips on the field at the same time. Sometimes Phillips would drop in coverage and AVG would rush, sometimes the other way around. Sometimes, we’d have all 3 rushing the passer; 3 quality pass rushers coming at the same time. It was nice to have the flexibility, and for opposing offenses to not know who was coming from where.
We’re still going to be a really good defense, and Ogbah will now get a lot more playing time. But losing Phillips hurts…sigh…
His absence/speed off the end will be greatly felt more vs last 3 teams/QB’s we face this season.
But Tua…oh never mind he was actually pretty good despite the turnovers
Missing is Ramsey and X, they shutdown anything downfield, these ratings are a farce
Nice informative video
In 7 of the last 8 games, we have either tied or lost the turnover battle. That won’t work in our last 3 games or the playoffs.
OL health is big, with guys out we have to take more chances
0-0 playcall on 4th down was bad, the decision to go for it was the right one, either a td or pin back a half dimensional team
Agreed on all counts
I will agree since it was a team with no offense. If if were a better team with a really good offense and defense, I take the points.
Sanders long fg to start the 3rd was huge
Getting caught up in the grief for Phillips, we forget that Armstead got hurt and did not return to the game.
Hollins seems to be ok. Stinger maybe.
Also, remember seeing Jackson leave the game and walk to the locker room. Did he ever return??
Armstead doesn’t bother me because I expect him to get injured every other game.anyway. Jackson got kicked out for some reason
I never saw exactly what he did in that scuffle. all they kept showing was the official spitting out blood.
I think that was part of the altercation involving the ref. He wasn’t injured
I didn’t see what he did either. Like ken said, I assumed it had to do with the scuffle
Err, or what both of you said, lol.
Armstead getting hurt is like water being wet
You could say Tua was bad yesterday, but he was really good when he wasn’t throwing ints
We used to say guys like P Manning threw 2 ints, so why again did he have a great game, and our QB who threw none not have a great game?
talent level, even with injuries, shows clearly when you continue to win when turning the ball over
^^^
Herd, the official took an inadvertent forearm to the mouth
That is what the Jest guy did to get kicked out, but what did Jackson do?

If the season were to end today,
the New England Patriots

The Miami Dolphins would be FIRST.
A pick 6 on a Hail Mary? Can’t happen.
Jets response:
“Did you not see us invent the butt fumble?”
They were saying that the Jets will always be famous for the Thankgiving Day Butt Fumble.
Now, they will always be known for the “Black Friday Hell Mary”.
Ogbah had a sack and a half and has led this team in sacks in the past.
Should we try to sign SB champion Derek Barnett for insurance / rotation depth?
I’ve watched the fight a few times and the only thing I could see that Jackson may have gotten kicked out for was he kind of threw a punch. He didn’t connect with anything or anyone, and he was in the middle of everything, but that swing had to be it.
The team is looking real good and the record one to be proud of, but let me play the part of the Ghost of a season past. Last year we were 8-3 as well and then the shiot hit the fan.

As Tim and I have been saying for months, thank goodness we’ve got depth with Ogbah.
Michigan OSU living up to the billing
Great game, great win!
I know but I hate Michigan. Well I hate Harbaugh not necessarily Michigan
Same
I hate OSU more…lol
I hated OSU when they had Urban Meyer but I like them now with Brian Day and in particular Brian Hartline as OC
Lol…too much hate going around.
It is awesome to be #1 seed again. Even if it is due to an unimportant BS Tie breaker. It will be real when we beat Balt in their house. That is the first “playoff” game for us.
I want us to beat them when it counts so bad. I feel like if if we can do that, we can beat anyone
If we win between now and Balt and win the away Balt game and the home Buff game the following week we are SB Champions BOOK IT
Tua always says all the right things. He’s a very grounded young man. Definitely a leader.
^
Balt is really the only game left this season that I worry we may lose
The cowboys look really good right now
but they are at Miami so I feel like that one is not as tough
Agreed, but it’s still a very tough game! I feel like we kind of need to win that one to kill the narrative. I’ve said it before- I don’t care if these guys are NFL players, they hear the noise and they are human. It’s going to affect their confidence at some point, if it already hasn’t.
One game at a time.
OSU and Michigan are 2 of my least favorite teams in college football.
But I’ve especially hated Harbaugh since he attacked Jim Kelly.
I’m a Penn St. fan; I understand your hatred.
What is that about with him attacking Kelly?
Kelly criticized Harbaugh when he was with the Colts for over dramatizing his injuries, so Harbaugh invaded a pregame show of Kelly’s and punched him in the head. Harbaugh suffered a broken hand and missed 3 games.
Can’t wait to go to the game next Sunday!!!!!!
You’re going to DC?
Stanger yeah, but last year we were 8-3 with a west coast road trip of SF and LAC back to back.
We lost both of those, looked bad doing it, and from there, we went into a tailspin.
This year we are 8-3 with 4-8 Washington followed by 3 home games,
starting with the Titans and then the stinkin’ Jets (with Trevor Siemian?)
By the time the Cowboys come to Hard Rock, we might be ready for them.
NFS
I wonder if he retires. He can’t stay healthy.
surprising no one
He’s a fucking disaster

Yes Tim, going to DC on Friday!
Cool!
Armstead continually injured is exactly what we all thought when we signed him. This is a surprise to no one, although it is disappointing.
Nik Needham played 12 snaps and Cam Smith 11 when the Dolphins were comfortably ahead. Smith allowed both passes in his coverage area to be caught, for 20 yards.

Per PFF, Ramsey allowed all three targets against him to be caught, but for just 25 yards. Kohou permitted all three against him to be caught, but for just 17 yards. Jets quarterback Tim Boyle threw only one pass against Howard, and that was incomplete.

The defense is really starting to come together. They’re playing faster. They look like they know what they’re doing now as a group.
We were playing a wounded sloth on offense
Yeah but they were trending upwards before that and we shut Hall down.
OK, got caught up at work. Busy ass day but got an incredible story to tell.
Had to go to the next county to do several bonds this afternoon. Got them done then got one more call to do another over there. They were not from here but from Southport, Connecticut. Dude was down here for Thanksgiving at the beach with the family. He had gotten arrested around 6pm yesterday but the wife couldn’t find anyone who would bond him until she called us today.
He was in jail for Disorderly Intox, Resisting Officer With Violence, Battery on Officer and Battery on EMT. $23,000 total in bonds, 1 misdemeanor and 3 felony charges. Them not being from here, I told his wife they had to pay the 10% bond fee and put up 23K for us to hold as collateral and they will get the collateral back when the case is over. They could pay 23K to the jail but they only take cash so she had to pay more and use us.
He went to a sports bar yesterday on the beach to watch the Jets/Dolphins game. Wife said he had been drinking all day, got mad at her and left saying he was going to watch the game somewhere else.
I show up to the jail to post his bonds, he was already dressed out to leave in his street cloths. He walks up to me at the window to sign his bond paperwork and he is wearing a green New York Jets #8 Aaron Rodgers jersey. I just happened to be wearing one of my Miami Dolphins hats this weekend. He looked at my hat and said, “Ahhh Fuck!” After a short pause, “Just get me out of here. I need to leave this fucking state!”
I wanted to laugh so bad but the good customer rep in me said, “Yes sir, just sign the highlighted areas and we’ll have you out in the next 30 minutes and get you on your way home.”
I think I did smile at some point during the short interaction. Sometimes you just can’t help it.
