I'm not so sure I would say he doesn't have talent.
He's deadly on the cross, however that's where the problem with concussions come into play.
I'd sign him to an incentive contract, where he could make some decent bank if he plays the entire season, but the team covers their collective asses if he goes down again. I think that's the only way a team is going to take the risk on him now after having 3 concussions in a 10 month period.

You're right, Josh is/was easy......

Time will tell as to who will be the top dog this season, I'm hoping the Phins can keep our QB upright for less than 25 sacks this year, and hopefully the tag team of Suh & Wake will have Brady get Happy Feet, and not get in his comfort zone.

Go Dolphins!!

Great news on Chron. I have not seen him or FFF in a very long time. Now is the time for all to stand up together.

Thanks and a great evening to all human beings.

Peace !

TryThinking wrote:Man what a Bull Shit schedule we got!!
Seriously, we start the season with 4 of the first 5 games away from home?
(the England game is counted as a home game, but yeah, not really)

Man, I think that the powers that be sometimes just have it out for us Phin Phans.....just sayin'

Trying to lock up some seats for the Charger game, (I live in So Cal) for myself and daughters.
Both are die-hard Dolphin Phans, and my youngest has never been to a NFL game, let alone a Dolphin game.

Hopefully we can stay healthy and improve despite the ownership and management.

Yes, CK I'll still "try" to make a game out in your neck of the woods this season too.... (if at all possible)


Go Dolphins!!

R8der113 wrote:Thank You for inviting us here CK. My wife and I went to the game the last time my Raiders played in Miami, the parking lot was 50/50... Raider/Miami fans. We had a great time, Fin fans even bought us a round of beers. You and I also have something in common...Epidurals. I love to chat sometime about your experience with them.

It's great to have you as a new member of our Swiss Family, R8der. Yes, Dolphin fans have learned to make as much peace as possible with fans of opposing teams. With a few exceptions (like f'rinstance NE, Jets, Buffalo, Philadelphia and a couple of others), we've found it's easier to leave the stadium after a loss if we haven't riled up our opposition. Less sh*t we have to eat !

I hope you've never been harmed by an epidural! As you can see on my epidural page at my website, I am one of the unfortunates who developed Arachnoiditis from a botched injection and spent years without a diagnosis, but with accusations from doctors that I was a drug addict prima donna, and a slew of other ugly things until one orthopedic surgeon finally ordered an MRI, where it clearly displayed a moderate to serious case of Arachnoiditis webbing through my spine. I am now an activist, joined with other Arachniacs whose stories are sadly similar to mine, attempting to stop the cover up by doctors. Arachniacs are supposed to be 'statistically insignificant'--yet right there in facebook just one of our little groups has ballooned from five concerned Arachniacs to over a thousand in a really short period of time. You can email me at cklaurence@gmail.com, and if you want to call, let me know and I'll give you my phone number via email. Over the years, I've become quite knowledgeable about epidurals and the enormous damage they can do to an otherwise healthy person. Let me hear from you...

Glad the Colts game isn't till late Dec. For the record I'm thinking that game's a W - for MIA, it's a long ways away, we'll see.

CK, the Colts @ MIA game is right between Christmas and New Year's, don't think that will work for me to be there - will let you know...

Thanks CK..I'll e-mail you sometime next week about the epidurals...I have some medical procedures this week.

R8der113--Please don't have an epidural before you check out the *Epidural* page on my website. You can get straight to my website from Switzerland. I know that when you are in pain, desperation trumps logic, but try not to let them perform any needle/spine procedures or anything with dyes until you read (at the very least) that page. Good luck with whatever you are having done...

Thanks for looking out for me CK...no this procedure is dental...I have multiple problems with my health. I've read some of you pages on epidurals...I've had them done for 3 years...10 years ago. And I have some of the problems you do. I just had another MRI done...and they want to do more epidurals...too get me off the pain meds...like you...they think your a druggy, for wanting relief.
FURTHER TOWARD OUR SCHEDULE--more of the boneheads' ridiculousness. Ross offered the Fins up for London game second year in a row. So he gets more money, but we lose a home game AGAIN. The rest of the schedule is just plain screwed up and totally frustrating for any Dolfan (never mind the team). Our ONLY advantage is the heat during the beginning of season. So now we not only lose a home game to London, but we lose most of our hot weather games as well. I won't even address the problems with getting decent players! I am so frustrated. Football is my diversion from real life (or do I mean to say that football IS my real life), but with this goofball owner and his merry band of total idiots, I am terribly discouraged and rapidly losing hope. Goodness only knows how they'll f*ck up the draft.

BTW--to the entire Swiss Family--there will be a virtual feast throughout the draft here at Switzerland. Unlimited food and drink--including top shelf liquor, kegs of beer and a buffet with selections you've only dreamed about. In the morning we will have omelet stations, an assortment of breads (including bagels, croissant, rye and wheat breads); smoked salmon, cream cheese plain, with chives and with veggies; pancakes, and crepes. Luncheon will have several soups, sandwiches, tuna tartar and numerous hot meal choices. Dinner will be served throughout the late afternoon to midnight (and possibly beyond if the Family is still blogging. Various appetizers--hot and cold, a smorgasbord of seafood (including lobsters and stone crabs from world famous Joe's on Miami Beach), and of course, steaks--from filet mignon to NY Strip--all for your dining pleasure! You can eat to celebrate your team's selections or to bury your woes. Either way, you'll be able to chill with your team buddies AND eat virtually everything your hearts desire. Compliments of The Godmother, Keeping the Peace and good ol' Justice. Thank you so much for choosing to blog in Switzerland!!!

Yeah the schedule this season is far from my favorite in recent history.
The weather could play a factor late in the season, but will it matter at that point if we're trying to play catch up from the 1st half schedule?

The health of the teams will come into play for both teams that late in the schedule with the Colts, however all things being equal, the nod would have to go to Luck and the Colts...... just sayin'

[i]Go Dolphins!!
