THE TEAL ZONE

[dredwak]

I think we should have to work the word DOLPHINS in the conversation Hah

flipper loved to play catch with bud and sandy...did a really great dolphin tail walk...

[peddlefest]

Good one dred,I forgot about the show with a ball playing DOLPHIN.

[dredwak]

hi peddle...thanks for stopping me from taking over the blog room index board...im bored and was playing...i didnt get to see the game...watched the Browns...

[peddlefest]

Well the Dolphins won but it was extremely sloppy on both sides.

[peddlefest]

WOW, I guess all the Phin fana went out west!

[cklaurence]

Sorry Ped. It was so quiet here, that you couldn't even hear a Dolphin swimming (hee hee hee). I was the only one here and got tired of visiting myself...

[cklaurence]

[size=150]WARNING: Peddlefest-- You can't keep steeling posts from me to get *Dolphin(s) into your posts! You need to come up with your own Shtick, dude!!! : [/size]

[peddlefest]

Sorry CK, but I got so excited over the DOLPHIN I must have lost control.

[Emeritus]

Peddlefest, we haven't met, but welcome to Switzerland. By all means visit all of the topics and meet the rest of the inmates.

Quite possibly the most impressive performance of the weekend, the Dolphins defense, not previously known for creating turnovers, forced seven fumbles, an interception and deflected four passes.

Similarly to his impact on the Broncos in 2009, Mike Nolan appears to have made an immediate improvement on the defensive unit in Miami. It doesn't hurt that he has a wealth of young talent to work with, but it's hard to ignore the improvement from 2009.

Holding the Buccaneers to a single score, while creating four turnovers is an impressive feat for any game of the season, but to do so in the very first game should raise alarms for the rest of the AFC East.

I thought that was really good. It's even nicer to see that someone paid enough attention to the team to see that. Not sure if the writer of that piece is a fin fan, but he is definitely a very attentive fan. Good stuff.

Evening, Reeceykins.

You know, I was so focused in on how mediocre our offense was, that the successes of the defense didn't even register. Now that I read that, I remember. Problem being--if you don't do anything with all the turnovers, it doesn't mean a damned thing! Can you imagine? All that fine work by the defense and the offense couldn't produce. It's like, "Where do we go from here??? The final score: 10-7 ... uh uh--not acceptable.

Umm CK, knock knock its PRE-SEASON give it a chance

[peddlefest]

Guess I'm not fast enough.

[dredwak]

not to put a damper on the defensive show the Dolphins put on...but...it was a slopfest...after all...
i hope they can do it again...this week...

[cklaurence]

Good morning, Switzerland!

Hey dred--I agree with you completely regarding the slopfest, and I would love to see a repeat of that defense on a dry field.

[peddlefest]

I sure am glad we didn't play the Patriots last night.

[peddlefest]

IF- were lucky we might get this game started by 9:30 !

[cklaurence]

What happened with the Patriot game last night, Ped? I keep seeing something about a personal foul...

[cklaurence]

Just had to post here so my Dolphin room doesn't get lost in the shuffle .

Oh dred--that picture is so cute! Thank you for posting it. (Go Dolphins!) Anyone seen Peddlefest around lately?

[peddlefest]

Soooo, are all you DOLPHIN fans ready for some football ? Man, it's like an empty bar around here. dred nice dog and porpoise shot.

[cklaurence]

Hey Ped! We're all in different rooms. Hit "View New Posts" to see who's here and what's happening. I'm going to the game (I go to ALL of the games!)--we'll see what they're going to do for us this week. ((((((Go Dolphins!!!)))))

[cklaurence]

I'm off to the game now. GO DOLPHINS! Good luck to any others who have a team playing tonight as well (except Atlanta, lol)...

[dredwak]

i know putting weight on preseason games is ill advised...but...i hope certain teams get some stuff figured out...especially those keystone coppers dressed as Cowboys...

[peddlefest]

The Dolphins looked like a revolving door last night--in--out---in-out. It was like expierimental football.

[cklaurence]

Oh Lord--our Dolphins looked so horrible last night, I actually cried. From first string to last, it was a disaster. It was painful to be in the stadium--where Ross has decided to "pump it up" with rap stars and rap music, even while the team is rolling over and playing dead. Fins Up???

[peddlefest]

CK,don't be so upset it's just practice. Let's see what happens in the first Dolphin game.

[cklaurence]

Thanks, Ped. I'm trying to keep myself under control. I guess I expected our first team to look a little better. For the money Marshall is being paid, he shouldn't even be dropping balls in practice game. I do NOT like hearing, "Pass INTENDED FOR Marshall..." Especially when it's a nice, crisp pass that any rookie receiver should have gotten. No rhythm between he and Henne at all! I'll get over my fretting when the team settles in for the season, I'm sure.
