Miami Dolphins


The Dolphins just won a game. If you are Matt Stover how do you go into the locker room knowing you should have made that game winning kick? If you are Troy Smith, how good do you think your chances are in the NFL after leading your team down the field twice coming off the bench? I know that was the Dolphins defense he was going against, but they are actually pretty good on that side of the ball.


By the way. I just found this wonderful image of Dolphins stadium at halftime today. They were pretty close to selling out that place. I know, I know, I should talk. The Dolphins are actually better than the Falcons, they just have tougher competition to play.

I was actually going to be looking forward to watching the Dolphins-Patriots game next week if the Pats were 14-0 and the Dolphins were 0-14, and with Shula's '72 team hoping for some oddly timed miracle. O well, I guess I will have more of an excuse not to watch the NFL this year now.

You have to feel good for the Dolphins right now though. Unlike the Falcons or many other losers this season they are actually still attempting to play the game. The Falcons looked downright atrocious today. It makes me wonder what would have happened if D.J. Shockley hadn't gotten hurt in the pre-season. I would think he would have at least gotten some playing time by now. That is too bad that he hasn't. I just hope whoever comes in next year gives him a shot. I also hope the Falcons don't waste their first pick on a QB. They have too many other problems to worry about a QB right now.

The Dolphins need a QB though. They are a lot closer to being a decent team than the Falcons. I miss college football.

And it Begins

I am relatively new to this whole blogging thing. I had one a few years ago entitled "I hate my roommate," which people apparently found humourous for the few weeks I bothered to keep it going. But I am a completely lazy fool so the blog didn't last long. Neither did that roommate.

Regardless, I have decided to write about something much more interesting than roommates that put live ammunition in the dryer. (That blog had so much potential.) That topic, of course, is sports. I will dabble in other topics every now and then I am sure, but sports is what I must write about.

Just so people know, I used to work in sports radio, along with all sorts of other radio stations. Particularly, I worked in radio for Atlanta Falcons broadcasts and Georgia Bulldogs broadcasts. I also did a lot of high school football, but you people don't care about that, and if you do you and you aren't somehow connected strongly to a high school program you should really take a deep breath and re-evaluate your life. Perhaps start by putting live ammunition in your dryer and stand nearby. Could help you gain perspective.

I hope everyone finds this blog humourous and a good read. Mainly, I am doing this to pass the time. Obviously, I will be biased to particular teams, especially Georgia based teams, in my heart, but I will try to call out stupidity across the spectrum....and that stupidity could take many forms.....like Terence Moore, or the South Koreans making glow in the dark cats.

Actually, I think I know what I want to get for next Halloween now.
















Enjoy.
