Excellent read and thoughts Marty. Thanks. I think that the Miami Dolphins, if you work for them, makes you not be a member of a message board / forum. I don't know if it's a conflict of interest, but I heard that from someone who was a member who went to work for them.

 

Thanks for the infomation bro there is on thing that I am so glad to hear and I know we are heading in the right direction

I could not agree with that more we are really starting to turn this ship around and with Coach Sparono driving it it should be good. We must have 5 guys set in the second preseason game I think because the guys need to get chmisty and lern how to comunicate with each other

 

I cant wait to see Merling I hope he can be great this year even though he is a rokie we are going to need him to step up and play big.

 

I am glad that we can rely on to backs and I am glad that most importantly we are leting Ronnie Brown come back slow and not rushing him in to playing. I think that is great because with an injury like that just because you are healed does not mean you are ready to come back. I am glad that we are going to test Ronnie Brown out in some preseason games but I hope we dont but him in there for to long but I know that Coach Sparono is smart enough to not give him to much time.

I could not agree more bro

 

great stuff thanks

 

Excellent article and nice thoughts cnc66. This is going to be a very interesting preseason. I think quickly these coaches will make a decision on who gives us the best opportunity for success. Of course the O-line is the most important in terms of just getting the starters reps together. The others will fall in as the preseason pans out. I would hope, and have confidence that we will, have the entire starting roster figured out and most of the situation package 1st stringers figured out by the third preseason game and just adjusting depth at the bottom end of the roster by then.

 

That sounds great I am glad Ricky Williams is doing well we need him.

Ever sense he quite on us the first time he was caught on drugs and just left I have always been so vocal about how I never wanted him a Miami Dolphins uniform. But I could see even last year that he was trying to turn his life around and be productive as a man and a football player. So I am glad that Ricky Williams is being responsible for himself and that he wants to be apart of our team. I would also like to take back all those things I said about Ricky Williams. So I agree with you bro good post.

 

There are several rather riveting stories developing here in Fins TC...Perhaps not to other teams or teams' fans, but to us for sure...Andy brings out several of those issues...The thing is, other than the guys he mentioned, there are still a few more stories developing in other positions of the team...

 

Things i got from listening to all the press conferences last night.and watching the brief highlights..

1} Becks release is fast...real fast, with an attitude that hesnot gonna fail.

2}loved it when smiley paused waited for a moment thought about it and said..Jake Long is a SPECIAL PLAYER. even went as far as saying that he could be better then Joe Thomas, it was tongue and cheek but he was serious.

3}Absolutely love the way Davone Bess goes about practicing, the kid is focused on every play, almost ninja like baby.

4}Ricky williams is a freak, Finally this intelligent humble weak man is focused on one thing...HIS CRAFT, and we shall reap the benefits of seeing what a focused motivated freak of nature can bring to the table.

5}Vonnie Holliday being the leader on our team scares the hell out of me.

6}Justin smiley and Jake Long our becoming best buddies...good for us.

7}The new beginning is not just a slogan, it is our reality and OHHHH what a beautiful reality it is. The players have totally bought in which means i will finally get to see, after 30 years, a team that plays together like a family, plays with an attitude that i have longed for forever. a spirit that is almost tangible, I have totally drank the koolaid.

8} Our team wont admit it but deep down they are unsure why they are happy that zach and jason our gone, it has unified this team in a way thats hard to put into words. Its their team for good or for worse, they have no excuses.

9} From listening to all of them and seeing them smile and look out for each other has made me very excited, i actually have felt some sort of void or dissconnect from our team in the past, i dont feel that anymore, i feel like their my team again, with players that bleed aqua.

10} Thank you Mr. H and thank you thank you Mr. Parcells......RESPECT THE CODE BABY!!!

 

Nice article Cnc, should be fun to see who wins the RG slot.

Didn't care for the Bubble Deal though, to me that is not a good sign, but I'll admit I have a bias against it already though.

 

Not sure if this was posted.
This is Ricky's last year under contract.

 

Yeah, Ricky has alot of opportunity in him at this stage of his life. Not that he hasn't in the past. Ricky seems like a together person now, who has figured himself out. I was as shocked as anyone when he quite, and when he popped positive the first time. I do know this, IMO, Ricky has changed and is ready to be a definate asset to this team. I would be shocked, even more so this time, if he up and retired. Would I be shocked if he popped again? A little, but addictioin is a hard demon to overcome, so I would not be knocked for a loop, just a little sad. I think, he has had the enlightenment and we will reap the benefits and enjoy the show that is to come in his life. At least I hope so.

 

This was not a lightening situation though Cnc, this was (from what I could gather) Robert Ferguson having the heat effect him and then going into the Bubble to finish his work.

If the guy has heat problems (and as we both know, you can't really explain Florida heat, you have to experience it to understand) if he has heat problems now, what will happen in September...ya know?

I'm hoping Ferguson was just caught off guard by 95 degees and 98% humidity...

 

Do I want to see anyone overheat like Ferguson did? Of course not. But if that happens, at least the bubble gives him the opportunity to keep working out and not just abandon the practice. The more work the better.

 

Thanks brother, theres something so exciting about starting completely over with a man in charge that i have the outmost respect for in Parcells, i couldnt be happier.

P.S. MAN do i want John Beck to be sucessful, its the combination of that sweet effortless delivery with such a great mindset that intrigues me so

 

Same here, and he should be able to run a bit Beck has pretty good speed.

 

I dont know what i saw last year with him but there was something great in there, i know he looked like a fumbling idiot at times but it was just a simple screen pass, a little scramble, a throw with that lighning release, the fact that he kept fighting and getting up, even if it was garbage time against the bengals, i remember cheering like a little girl in the middle of the sportbar cause i saw what i needed to see, and that was a glimpse of something special.

 

I was happy for Beck as well, now IMO he looked bad last season, we were 1-15, everyone looked bad. The stuff that came out later about Hadnot not blocking for him made me see red.

IMO, Beck really did not have a chance to show what he could do for us, our team was just terrible and he really did not have much to work with, I expect much more out of him this season and I think he can deliver.

 

Great read

 

as iam writing this brother, camp reports are coming out that he is melting on the practice field.

WHY..WHY WHY
