Could Dolphins-Pats game be moved to 830??

DolPhanDave — Sat, 08 Nov 2008 18:54:03 -0000

I heard something about the Dolphins-Patriots game in week 12, that it may be changed to the 830pm start time for national tv. anybody hear anything credible about this, or was it just something my pro-dolphin friends came up with and are circulating as fact. :o) gotta love miami sports fans.

to fit the 75 words---it would be awesome if the game did get changed to the night game. Not only sending the message that the Dolphins are back!! but its also fun going to night games, especially in south florida.

Grade My Fantasy Draft!!!

DolPhanDave — Mon, 25 Aug 2008 17:16:56 -0000

Hey guys, i had my 'practice' league fantasy draft last night, before the big 'serious' league draft on wednesday. Wanted to get some REAL football fans opinions on my choices. I had the 5th pick, and (as a clue to how not-serious this league is) the 1st pick was Tom Brady. HA!

Since the league only has 8 teams there are alot of FA'a so i was a little loose w/ my bench players as you can see.

Team positions are QB, QB, WR, WR, WR, RB, RB, W/R, TE, K, DEF

QB- Donovan McNabb

QB- Aaron Rodgers

WR- Randy Moss

WR- Anquan Boldin

WR- Roy Williams (Det)

RB- Clinton Portis

RB- Marshawn Lynch

TE- Dallas Clark

W/R- Ricky Williams

K- Phil Dawson

DEF- New York Giants

B- Donald Driver

B- Ted Ginn Jr

B- Dwayne Bowe

B- Chad Pennington

B- Fred Taylor

B- Todd Heap

B- Reggie Williams

Honest Opinion Poll -- Week 1 Dolphins vs Jets

DolPhanDave — Thu, 21 Aug 2008 06:51:19 -0000

Ok Dol-Fans, its the game we have all been waiting for, looking forward to, obsessing about, etc. But in a land of reality, who thinks the Dolphins will come out smoking in week one and bring home a WIN against the J-E-T-S SUCK SUCK SUCK?

Who thinks that despite the improving signs of our beloved Dolphins, Brett Favre and the 'revamped' Jets will come in here as favorites and leave with the win?

Mark me down for optimism, belief, and no-so-blind faith. As a dol-fan, how could it be any other way? Dolphins 23 Jets 13

Is Uggla really that dumb?

DolPhanDave — Wed, 20 Aug 2008 04:02:56 -0000

I'm watching the marlins-giants game and we were just doubled up b/c uggla thought there were 2 outs on a fly ball to right field, uggla being on 2nd. He really mustve taken off b/c the outfielder took his time getting the ball in, the 2nd baseman had time to bobble it, brush the ball off and tag the bag.

Last week he missed a hit & run sign in the 9th, shattering our chance of tying that game.

Whats up w/ Uggs? He giving up on the season or just as smart as he looks?

Tonights game on TV???

DolPhanDave — Sat, 16 Aug 2008 18:00:14 -0000

Hey Matty, i cant find anywhere online saying if tonights game will be locally televised. I have to work and i want to DVR it so i can watch as soon as i get home (and yes, neglect the olympics)

Please let me know if anybody knows anything, the fins web site says its on WFOR but according to comcast's tv-guide it is not on. They need to realize what a priority it is to make sure that game is on TV down here!!!

HELP!!!!!!!

Favre to the Jets--Pennington Released

DolPhanDave — Thu, 07 Aug 2008 14:50:49 -0000

Late last night Brett Favre was given his final shove out of Green Bay and sent east to our good friends the J-E-T-S (suck suck suck!) for a conditional draft pick.

This move also led to Chad Pennington release by the Jets, which is not a big shocker to anyone

I personally dont see this move helping anybody more then the Packers, who not only shipped Brett outside of the NFC North, but out of the NFC completely! For the Jets, all i can see this move doing is giving them maybe 2-3 more wins, but since i only saw them as a 4 win team i dont see it making a big difference. It does give them another year or so to develop Kellen Clemens and gives him the chance to work under one of the NFL's best.

So while i dont see this move helping the jets a whole heck of alot, it dosent seem to hurt them much either. But what will end up of Pennington? Obviously the question comes up 'will the dolphins give him a look' and i am against this totally. Lets develop our own youngsters and leaving Pennington to dwindle around the rest of the league.

Where is Derek Hagan on the 'Featured Poll' below?

DolPhanDave — Sat, 02 Aug 2008 05:13:14 -0000

I'm just curious considering that one of the most consistent thing that i hear out of training camp is how great Hagan has been playing. Not only is he catching everything thrown his way, but also running good routes and breaking away from coverage. As a dolfan this is GREAT news to hear, now if only Jason Allen would follow suit....

But seriously, i was expecting another mediocre-ish season from this x-saban 3rd round pick, but so far he has been the best receiver on the field.
