I was very against signing OBJ, but that was when the contract numbers were reportedly to be $12-15M per year. I can tell you for the sum we’re paying him, which will max out if Odell Beckham reaches every performance incentive, is $8.5M. Well done Dolphins! We brought in a battle tested, crafty wide receiver who at this point in his career, is less about blowing past people and more about knowing where to be, and making the clutch catch and helping his team. Let me say this though, some uninformed feel OBJ was the big offseason move but I believe picking up TE Jonnu Smith was the most important move this team made. I’ll spend the rest of this article outlining just how necessary acquiring both of these players was for the Miami Dolphins.
We’ve been dreaming about having a TE in Miami who is a legitimate receiving threat. We had TE Mike Gesicki, and we so strongly hoped he’d be that guy. He was capable of making some difficult catches, especially some one handed wonders, but what Mike Gesicki could never do was get open and beat coverage, and run after the catch. He was a long strider, and once he made the catch, lacked the power and tenacity to beat a defender and escape tackles, even by a much smaller defensive back. In 2024, enter Jonnu Smith. Let me preface this by saying Jonnu has had a very modest career so far, but this guy is trending up! Smith was not the starting TE, or the most targeted TE, as the Falcons had drafted TE Kyle Pitts 4th overall in the 2021 NFL Draft. As it turns out though, Pitts only out-targeted Smith by 20, Pitts had 90 targets while Jonnu had 70, but the most telling stat is Jonnu Smith only had 3 less receptions than Pitts, and only 85 yards less receiving, Pitts 667 yards, Smith 582, and both TE’s had 3 TD’s.
I’m not going to disparage our current TE Durham Smythe, who I believe was always intended to be a 2nd TE, an able blocker to help with the run game as a blocker, and occasionally catch a pass here and there. Despite the revolving door of young, promising guys we’ve brought in behind Durham, he ends up the starter because he’s reliable, both in knowing where he needs to be, and even more paramount, his ability to block. Hunter Long, Julian Hill, Tanner Conner, Tyler Kroft, bring ’em on baby, and Smythe outlasted and outpaced all of them. This season there are some all hot about Jody Fortson, who backed up Travis Kelce in KC. Jonnu Smith with be the leading receiver at TE for the Dolphins, and then Durham Smythe will be next, and Smythe will remain the starter and get more snaps than Smith, but Smith will be crucial for us this season, and mostly be a huge help to QB Tua Tagovailoa.
Let me start this paragraph with this – NO MIAMI DOLPHINS TE CAUGHT A TD PASS IN 2023!! No typo, not one TD reception for ANY Dolphins TE. I’ll tell you that Jonnu Smith is going to change that! He had 3 TD’s last season, I boldly say he will double that this season. First off, Falcons QB only threw 12 TD’s last season, and RB Bijan Robinson had 4 of them. While Tua struggled last season in the red zone, I strongly feel that Jonnu Smith will be the elixir. It’s such a different dynamic here in this Miami Dolphins offense, with Tyreek Hill, Jaylen Waddle, even sprinkle in a little OBJ, I think Jonnu will feast here in this situation. Jonnu Smith caught 71% of his targets, while Kyle Pitts caught only 58%. He’s reliable, and has huge run after catch ability, something we haven’t had here at that position for far too long. Think of how much opposing defenses have to spend in numbers trying to defend Hill and Waddle, then add in OBJ, and you can just picture how Smith will be in single coverage with a LB or S, and how he can have his way with Tua’s accuracy and timing.
OK, now to the OBJ portion of this article. It’s not that either starting WR missed a lot of time, Jaylen Waddle missed 3 games, while it was nearly impossible to keep Tyreek Hill out of the lineup, he missed only 1 game. The problem though was that Tyreek was hurting, playing hurt, and he was compromised. Now props to Tyreek for battling through the injuries and taking the field, but the bigger problem was that the Dolphins really didn’t have a Plan B without Tyreek. The very first game Jaylen Waddle missed, the Dolphins obliterated the Denver Broncos 70-20, just covering the 48 point spread (Joking!). Where it really hurt the Dolphins was at the end of the season against both the Ravens and the Bills in Games 16 and 17. Let me let you in something pretty amazing. When Tyreek Hill says Tua is the most accurate QB, he ain’t lying! There were games this season where Hill caught an astounding 91% of his targets, and trust me, they weren’t screen passes, and I’m not talking 3 targets, I’m talking 11. In games where they were clicking, and there were a few, 6 to be exact, where Hill was targeted 74 times and he caught an amazing 58 of them. That’s over 78%, which if you don’t realize is practically absurd. The problem though with Hill hurting, and Waddle either OUT or also hurting, or both hurting, that number drops precipitously to 50% for Hill, and therein lies the problem. I think OBJ can step in and replace either Hill or Waddle for short stints without a significant dropoff. That’s so important to the way this offense functions. We must have 2 WR’s that threaten the defense.
What I’d like to see more of this season is a different wrinkle to our offense, something that suggests that our HC Mike McDaniel is evolving, and can use his personnel to better adapt to the opponent. I think he’s great offensive mind, and I think that will be something we see here in his 3rd season as Head Coach. I’d like to see some games where we go just go run heavy, and I think drafting RB Jaylen Wright will facilitate this. I love Raheem Mostert, but I was afraid to overuse him, and getting Wright, and more importantly, another Jaylen so no team could conceivably have more Jaylen, Jaelan, or Jalens than the Miami Dolphins. Seriously though, we can lean on Wright for carries, while you didn’t want to stretch Mostert too far, and couldn’t rely on a big workload for rookie sensation De’Von Achane. Maybe some 2 RB sets, and some 3 TE sets, or 6 OL sets, and just pound some teams. Apparently our run blocking should be better up the middle with new OC Aaron Brewer, and we already know we can run outside with any team, so it would be nice to give the little guys like Hill and Waddle a little rest and just run the ball over and through some defenses.
Anyway, very happy to have TE Jonnu Smith who was my favorite roster add, and then OBJ for the right price. Great signing, even if we were bidding against no one. Both of these players will have big value for us this season. As you know, not everything is sunshine and rainbows, and I hope what we’ve done for the defense is enough. Still very suspicious of that D-line, despite retaining Zach Sieler. Zach Sieler and Christian Wilkins had a great dynamic, they fed off of each other, both on and off the field, but it’s on the field I’m afraid is what we’ll miss. If no one else on the D-line becomes a legitimate pass rush threat, and the OLB’s aren’t doing enough, you know Sieler will get a lot of attention, and that will limit his effectiveness. I know a lot of people have brought up Calais Campbell, including myself, and why not? Campbell at age 37 played 17 games, played 63% of the defensive snaps and added 6.5 sacks, 17 QB Hits and 10 tackles for loss. That’s probably more than everyone else not named Zach Sieler combined on our D-line. I say if we’re going for it, sign Calais Campbell!
GO DOLPHINS!!!
Finsmob Unleashed 
No games stand out as over the top hard to win, unlike othe years
Still need to check some things out though
Have to see how injuries play out also.
Mike says you can’t use injuries as an excuse
We don’t play KC, Balt, Cin, Pitt, so we get somewhat of a break
and we get to play the Pats twice 🙂
The AFC is getting very competitive. Not a lot of lock victories, you have to earn them.
For Mike E
LOL
That’s a no shit Sherlock type of statement, or a statement that goes without saying
I mean wow, the teams QB is it’s highest paid player
I am not happy with a Thanksgiving night game. Ugh!
I am I love thanksgiving.🙂
Steve – our defense could use all the excuses they could find. What about the offense though?
Isn’t the expectations of “needing” excuses disheartening?
I mean it is the schedule release day!
Wyo – you have no idea. I don’t want any fucking excuses. Either we win or we don’t. Either we’re good enough or we’re not. No excuses
That’s what I’ve been saying but it’s not just about Tua.
Tim – it can’t be all about one person, but you know as well as I do that the the QB gets paid the most because he’s the most important, most impactful player on the team. If he doesn’t give you a chance to win, you ain’t winning.
If you can’t stop the other team from marching up and down the field and you can’t block your plays on offense you usually lose. My biggest concern with our team is durability. I don’t think top level personnel is the problem.
That’s fine. That’s where we differ. I think Tua needs to play a helluva lot better in those big games or we’ll be in the same place we were last year. You want him to get $55M per season, he’s going to have to win big games by playing well or he won’t be worth it
No idea?????
I’m pretty sure anyone that can read knows your opinion on the team!
funny that’s how it is every year, They will win or lose!
But continue on, don’t let me interrupt
No need, that’s all the truth
Excellent point about maybe getting Phillips back for the last month and a half when the competition steps up a notch.
(I don’t have much hope Chubb will be ready at all this season. He might come back in December, but I don’t expect him to be effective.)
Curious (2023 Dolphins season)…
Just remember… this is ALL of Tua’s fault. And I guess funk him for leading the NFL in passing yardage last season, and for leading the NFL in passer rating two seasons ago.
You can put Patrick Mahomes on this team, and even he couldn’t win a Super Bowl under these circumstances.
Anybody want to hear what happened to our Defense last season?
Mike, the salaries are out of whack. The battle of attrition is the key. You need depth.
Ever see the movie “Cool Hand Luke”. As Strother Martin says “What we have here is a failure to communicate “. It’s not all about Tua, but he wasn’t competitive in big games. I couldn’t give a fuck if he threw for 10,000 yards, he disappeared in big games. He didn’t give us a chance to beat the Ravens, Bills or Chiefs. Make all the excuses you want, those are the facts, right in front of all of our noses. Patrick Mahomes, could, and would have given us a chance and probably would have beaten all of those teams if he played for the Dolphins
Wrong answer, my very good friend.
We played the Bills at home, last game of the season, game which decided where we played in the playoffs. What did Tua do? Tell me? Tell me how we’re not going to be a heat trained team this season? This is what we are, and either Tua is going to rise to the level of a champion in those games and we could be contenders, or he won’t, and we’ll be an early exit once again
Bud, please re-read my 9:14 PM post above. Honestly, we had a Death Star that was not fully functional after the myriad of injuries incurred… and that sucks on every level.
I cannot put ANY of it on Tua. Hey, at least Tua was healthy for each and every game. As for the rest of his Offense? Not so much.
Does anybody want to hear what happens when ya have a heat-trained, beat-up team — with half of its starting roster on IR — goes to KC in -30 MPH winds in a Wildcard game?
I dunno, but it’s always Tua’s fault. 😆
We should be at worst, 6-2 after Week 9, so at least we don’t have to watch a late season collapse to know if we have the guns to maybe win a PO game for the first time in over 20 years. Week 15 will show us who we really are though. Will we beat a PO winning team from a year ago who was garbage the year before? While we equivocate about every failure, can we beat the team who did better in the first year of their new coach than we’ve done in 20?
I’ll check back in tomorrow, need my beauty sleep. 🥸
Taking out the 2 Jets games, 10 to 11 of our games are “tougher” than they did when home/away was released, mainly because so many of them are trending up …
Nevertheless, mid season 5 weeks of prime time in 6 week stretch (with that 1 game being at Buffalo which should be game of week for most of the country on a Sunday afternoon). 3 Sunday nights in a ROW. I’ve never seen a schedule like this before even for Pats with Brady (correct me if I’m wrong).
So so glad to get Thursday for season opener!! But both games with Buffalo will be done essentially mid-season.. based on last season this could be an advantage.
We host JAX opening day.
I am clearly reading conflicting stories. Talking to my brother in law he said it was opening day … I saw it as week 2 … he sent me link that said opening day … ugh. I trust you on this more than my brother in law (Raven’s fan LOL)
he may have gotten that confused because when it came out it was billed as the “first Thursday night football game”. They market the first game of the year as just that, the first game of the year, not TNF.
Tim
I hate the cold! I was hoping for a Sept game here. Deep down I knew better. Lol
I don’t remember it being cold during the game we went to 🤔…
Mike E: Cool Hand Luke”. As Strother Martin says “What we have here is a failure to communicate.. I thought it was Jackie Gleason in Smoky and the Bandit.
Sheriff Buford T. Justice (Jackie Gleason) may have said that too, but Strother Martin (Captain) was way before that.
And then it was in the Guns N’ Roses song civil War
That schedule sure does not leave many options for a fest game …. Wife likes the look of Xmas in Miami, that will fade away soon
Wife was thinking that also. She wants to do Christmas in Key West.
I don’t think we could have asked for a schedule that is more fair.
I agree.
The spacing and the alternating of H & A games is as good as possible.
First bad schedule is playing the Raiders in Vegas, so travel across the country coming off a short week, while they’re coming off of a bye
Game is in Miami not Vegas, but still have a short week while they’re coming off of a bye
We also have to play in Houston coming off of their bye
Also SF coming off of a Thursday game
Then in Cleve coming off of Thursday Night
So 3 weeks in a row at the end of the seasons final 4 week, when guys are tired we’ll have a huge disadvantage, because our opponent will have extra rest
This schedule blows, 9 road games, 2 Thursday games, 3 of final 4 shafted rest wise
FU NFL, one our our worst schedules in a long time
M – Sorry if you don’t like this answer, but basically everything has to be perfect for Tua to play even remotely well enough to give us a chance to win is what I take from your 9:14PM post. I know Mahomes was missing some O-line guys, his receivers suck with the exception of Rice, his RB’s were a mess, his best guy McKinnon was banged up, even Kelce was banged up, yet he doesn’t skip a beat. You clearly won’t see that Tua that played poorly in all those games. Once again, I don’t care if the defense gave up 30 points, (which they didn’t), but the QB needs to keep his team in the game to win, and Tua failed in all 3 games. We scored 19 against the Ravens, 14 against Buffalo and 7 against KC. I know M, it hurts, but the QB has to do better than that.
Starting O-line for the Ravens game
LT Armstead, LG Cotton, C Eichenberg, RG Jones, RT Jackson
Starting O-line for the Bills game
LT Armstead, LG Jones, C Eichenberg, RG Hunt, RT Jackson
Starting O-line for the Chiefs Playoff game
Same as the Bills game.
Our O-line is pretty much the same (or worse) as what we had, and I think you know that. You guys love to point his leading the NFL in passing yards, but if you’re gonna do that, you have to look at how poorly he played in these games, and not make excuses. Look how well Purdy did with guys hurt, Kittle was hurt all season, Deebo was hurt, he kept on humming. I don’t get why you all just can’t admit it, it’s beyond ridiculous. The Chiefs had 409 total yards, 262 passing, 147 rushing. We had a little more than half of that total, 264. Forget the defense, even with the severely injured crew, the TOP was not severely skewed. We had a chance, we just sucked. Tua sucked.
I don’t care if they pay him $60M per season as long as plays like it. He can’t get that money and disappear in those crucial games. End of story
I have to say when we had Armstead then got Hunt back end of the season, I had higher hopes that were squashed.
The thing is Mike, it’s not likely to be perfect. I don’t know how else to say it, but the QB is the guy that has to do the heavy lifting. No one impacts the game more, which is why he’s going to get paid nearly double of what even the best position player not the QB will get paid. We can no longer say it was cold, this guy was banged up, none of that applies.
schedule oinks 13-4 to me
Let’s see how the weapons on O mesh, how the OL handles the passrush, and how the new D looks before we smell anything
With this schedule we’re setup to fade again at the end of the season, however if we win the division we’ll be battle tested to win a playoff game, but then it’ll probably snow that day in Miami with sub 32 temp
We’ve been fading even when we shouldn’t. We had things set up pretty favorably last season, we just weren’t able to take advantage of it, If we’re healthy, we should be fine
Having to play 4 teams coming off of a bye or Thursday game is a lot, let alone 3 in final 4 weeks, when the schedule is brutal
We have 3 such games in our favor, but mixed throughout the season
Watching some old Fins games from the 70s, the OL is completely straight, unlike the BS of today where they allow the OTs to be way off of the ball, when did that start?
Also, WRs that are supposed to be in the slot line up even with the outside WR at times, then go out for a pass as an ineligible receiver and is never called, unless the line judge needs to alter the game
We need to be 7-0 and very well could be, going into Buffalo
At least we don’t leave FL in preseason
You guys are so confident, it really surprises me. The O-line has question marks, the D-line has bigger question marks and our OLB’s we have zero idea of how they will play in the NFL, besides Shaq Barrett. Not sure how our O-line is any better than last season if Armstead is injured as per usghe, and if we don’t pick up Calais Campbell I think our D-line goes backwards.
3 positives vs 1 negative on each side of the ball signifies improvement, but for old Mikey any negative is a Chicken Little
Mikey doesn’t like, because he doesn’t like anything
Steve – You can call me cranky all day long, you said we should be 7-0, and Piggy said 13-4. That’s like AFC best or close to it. I just call it like I see it, realistically, not in some fantasy world like some of you.
I can say the same thing about calling it like I see it
We should be favored in our first 7 games, hence 7-0
I’ll say OBJ gets at least 2.8m of his incentives

Very good, in depth article on the Tua contract situation
https://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/40139288/miami-dolphins-decision-tua-tagovailoa-contract
Did we sign another WR yet? I’m so excited!
I’m just waiting for the “It just feels different this year. It really does.” BS. The over/under is June 21. I have no idea what that means, but I’d bet it!
It’s no different here though, we’re still the best in the AFC until the games actually get played. lol
No one on here said anything more than winning the division, but go ahead and Eeyore it😏
Last year did feel different, until the injuries hit hard
This year feels like more of the same, but more diversified on O
MikeE,
Sports has become like politics. It doesn’t matter what you actually do. All that matters is what you say over and over and over again. People will believe anything if you say it often enough. Lol
Except in Biden’s case the more he says lie after lie the more he believes it 😝
Steve – I’d say 13-4 is going to be the #1 seed in the AFC, no?
Pig said 13-4 not me

Schedule is out and time to talk Fest Dates. Unless we take a year off gotta be Oct 27 versus the Cards. Everything else is way early, late or in the evening.
They are really rushing things even more this year. Seat draft is next Tues morn.
I’m good with Oct 27th, don’t see another date that makes sense either
My cousin and husband daughter will be joining us, but most likely getting their own seats
They like the lower bowls can’t see shit seats, can’t see the play develop, can’t see if ball carrier got 1st down…
lol 2 teef husband daughter😜
His daughter
I’ll reserve two for them anyway (final payment is not for a couple months). Maybe they change their minds when they see what our price is versus the field levels they want.
Ok thanks!
12 teams will have to play 2 short week Wed, Thurs, or Friday games, not including week 1, and GB and Det playing back to back Thursdays
Jax, Ind, Tennessee, LAC, Car, and AZ don’t play any
Here’s info from Tim our group rep. They’ve never not had group tix in the non-corner nose bleeds before. Must be busy.
Your group ticket selection and purchase date is Tuesday, May 21st at 11:00AM.
For the 2024 season we will not have club or lower-level group seating. Group tickets will be in the upper-level end zone and upper-level goal line with inventory starting between rows 20-30 in certain sections.
This is because we are sold out of season tickets and currently on a waitlist. It is important that I provide you with all the necessary information for your group. With, it is very important that we connect at your scheduled time to secure your tickets, as we are anticipating selling out of our group ticket allotment during the fulfillment of deposits next week.
Have to check with Dana and my kids, but if it’s 10/27, I’m pretty sure at least Dana and I will be going
Do you think it can be anything else other than 10/27? You guys throw some curveballs at times, but it is the only game that fits historic Fest positioning.
No, I think that’s going to be it. Thanks for handling this as per usghe!
It’s okay to be optimistic about your team but have some concerns as well. We have a lot of really good players but some positions and depth are yet to be defined.
I agree, I’m grumpy, and 13-4 is like waving the red cape and I’m the bull. lol
What’s 13-4 about? That would be a fantastic season but very optimistic.
it feels different this year Randy…,😃
Mike E,
As ALWAYS, it’s nothing personal when it comes to our opinions of Tua. I just sometimes feel the need to defend Tua by pointing out that he’s actually really good… not some bum who can’t win a game.
Truth be told, he’s faced adversity every single season he’s been here… whether it be no faith by Brian Flores, personal injuries (concussions), team injuries, media BS, or freak shit like playing in -30 windchills in KC for the Wildcard win. These aren’t excuses, they’re facts.
EVERY SINGLE SEASON, he’s gotten ever BETTER. From personal confidence to physical performance to leading the league in the good stats, he’s shown tangible growth every season. He has yet to reach his ceiling: nobody works harder and nobody studies the playbook like Tua… he’s on a mission.
Prediction: he’s going to become clutch this season against the big dawg teams. He’s going to make you proud yet, my friend! 🙂
^^^^^
From your mouth to the big guy’s ears!
vs AFC S
2-2 losing to Jags and Texans
vs NFC W
2-2 losing to SF and either Rams or Hawks
vs AFC E
3-3 sweep Pats … split w. Jest
vs others
1-2 losing to GB and Browns
results in
8-9
Indy could be an upset and it’s possible to lose to both mid teams on NFCW.
so 6-11
unless Rodgers pulls a sweep
then 5-12.
of course Titans knocked us off last year, and pats have fresh hungry coach and high draft QB instead of lame Jones … so they could win at home …
3-14
Stop 🛑
settle down big guy
Piggs is a lot closer than you are
you might want to stay out of the sun more

Just caught up. Good day of fishing!! But no big Amberjack’s. Caught 4 small ones. One may have been a different species but hard to tell the difference between a small Amberjack and an Almaco Jack even when I look at the fish ID app.
Trigger fish too small to keep as usual. Almost limited out on Vermilion Snapper though.
A woman had to have named it vermillion 🤷♂️
They are my favorite.
Good to see you, Stanger. Hope all is well.🙂

You spoke of Eeyore above. Wondering if you were giving a nod to the cartoon voice portrayal of Eeyore? If so, that was the one and only Peter Cullen… the voice of Optimus Prime himself!
If not, don’t mind me… I’m a geek when it comes to the human voice. Peter Cullen is a hero of mine.
FWIW, I can do a dead-ringer impersonation of Optimus Prime.
Ok, we’ll go with that😜

Was no reason to put up a poll this year cause that was the only possible game. We’ve got our seat draft next Tuesday, May 21st at 11:00AM.
Need to get a rough head count before then. And remember even if you say yes now you can back out when the final payment is due. Add your name to the list.
—————-
Mike E — +1 (or maybe more)
Steve — (maybe +2)
Son (+7)
Ken
Doggy +2
Toba +1 (pending surgery date)

TOP SECRET plus 1
OMG
I’m so happy to see you. I was worried. Can’t wait to meet you.
So cool man
son, had a pretty significant stroke on 10-27-17. and now that I am just ending my cancer treatment. I’m finally able to come on down.
Kudos to you for battling though all that …. great to see ya
thanks bro.
God Bless You bud
wishing you well Top
take care of yourself
still living on the wrong side of heaven, but at least i’m still living.
ER, 10/27 in Miami won’t be cold I promise
Hey Top! Glad to see you on, still strong! Look forward to meeting you at the Fest!
hardly bro, weak and tired, the chemo took a lot out of me.
Training camp will fix that Marine 💪
if it were only that easy, son
Top, you are displaying great strength already hang in there it doesn’t happen all at once. It’s very encouraging to see you
Herd turns 42, Top will be there and we’re going to destroy the Cardinals.
What a Fest
(and I’ll get my hands on MikeE)
😂
hope you have the best birthday ever.
The Dolphins lost to the Cardinals in the first Fins game I went to in person.
It was the day Wanstedt got fired.
Uncle cracker played at halftime and I baked in the old seats they added in left field like ten rows up on the twenty yard line.
Top – sorry you had to go through all of that. I still say strong though, what doesn’t kill you makes you stronger
yeah, fuck cancer dude 🙂
Yessir!
TOP SECRET?!! YAY!!! GREAT to see ya back here, my man!!!
So sorry to hear what you’ve gone through, sincerely, SIR. 😦
CONTINUE to stay STRONG, and I look forward to seeing you here more often… we’ve MISSED YOU, MAN!!!
God bless you!!!
hey bro, thanks
Testing
You’re a mess but you’re here!
we know you’ll be there 👍
pass……without studying……cool, lol.
I think there is a strong chance I can make the FEST this year due to the scheduling vs my vacation time. So long as there are no drastic changes at work, I’d very much enjoy meeting all of y’all!!!
oh dude come on man
just do it, shit or get off the pot, what ya waiting for? 🙂
Any newbies get a room near or at Margaritaville on Hollywood Beach
Even we won’t be at La Quinta anymore…. So sad what they let it become
I was thinking of getting a room there this year. What happened?
They have turned it into almost a halfway house for struggling people… not cleaned much and much different clientele.. we were a little creeped out last year
Tough times since the hurricane, you’ll be fine by the beach I won’t kick sand in your face
Oh, I had no idea. I guess I’ll probably go back to Margaritaville or one of the other places on the broadwalk
Great to see you on the board, Top. Sorry to hear of your health issues, but congrats on coming out the other side. I watched my mom go through chemo recently and have seen firsthand the strength it takes to take that on. Props to you!
thanks bro, appreciate that.

don’t know about plus one, the lady I would escort is a season ticket holder there (she lives in Ft. Lauderdale), but I”m guessing she might want to sit with you filthy animals once she meets you all. we”ll see I guess, lol.
lol
No worries at this point. Stang will let us know for sure, but I think you have until sometime in August to lock it in.
Oh for sure she will. Tell her to sell her ticket.
Hey Top — sorry about the health stuff. You have some time tiill it is final, but you will have to decide on that extra ticket before she meets the crew.
testing x2
Are logging in with WordPress?
I do but I never tried with FB like I think you do. That could be your problem
I am
I couldn’t post from my phone but now I can thanks to my son but trying to get my avatar back
The kids rock thank God
wasn”t it a big green fucker ?
My avatar or my son?
I thought he saw your fly down
Woohoo my son is a computer genius
Psyched for the fest
There you are in full glory. Your son is awesome
Stanger – Mike E + 2 for now. I’ll let you know ASAP if there are more
Keep your eye on #44 this year. He has game changing ability. If you don’t block him he will destroy the play with speed.

The only reason any boy knows what vermilion is is because he was fortunate enough to have the Crayola box of 64 colors

@davehydesports
Dave, I’ve asked this a couple times to others in your field but no response. I know you believe in Tua so I wanna hear from you. What do you think Tua needs to do specifically to reach the next level?
That’s wrong.
Jacoby should be above Heinecke.
LOL
Phelon, I am hearing the holdup right now is the Dolphins want more in non-guaranteed money in the form of bonuses and the Tua camp wants more guaranteed money.
Dolphins want to put a lot of money in roster/game bonus to protect them due to his injury history.
It’s makes total sense as he contemplated hanging it up after the 2 concussion season. What happens after his next concussion?
I mean….it’s pretty damn accurate IDK about 36 but definitely bottom 5 in the league
Where’s Beck on this list? 64th?
He’s Tua ‘s tutor, right?
I didn’t copy and paste the whole list.
