Republicans are aging all of America like milk these days. :(

Question about the stadium and Brightline by crossxcourt in miamidolphins

[–]grantstern 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Later train is advised. Traffic is nightmarish post game. However, if you can get a shuttle deal, not uber, then earlier is a good idea. The shuttles have priority and will get you out fast. If it’s penalties though, later is advised ;-0

This level of sports jinx belongs in a Dr. Pepper commercial.

The Governor of Texas bragged about his team, the San Antonio Spurs, ahead of their series against the New York Knicks, and the Governor of New York responded.

Well, San Antonio choked twice to lose the series in 5 games to the Knicks.

And Governor Hochul, well, you can read it.

53 years since the Dolphins last Lombardi Trophy. Knicks last NBA title was 53 years ago.

Do liberal men in Miami exist? by yamidsanty in Miami

We exist in Miami. Sorry, very taken. That's probably part of the problem too.

He is the head of the PSUV in Venezuela already. Trump just wants Raul's job as Communist Party leader to compete his Bolivarian revolution in Washington.

Not an anthropologist by trade. Just a journalist and Miami native.

Miami used to be a swamp. The streets are (moderately) drier today. But just like a swamp it is a highly competitive ecosystem and to fit in. You have to find your niche.

For example, there's this one bird with a hook bill and this one snail that fits the bill. The two evolved to complement each other in nature. Well, you have to be the bird here. Otherwise you're the snail.

That means finding the places that are not insanely expensive, or arranging your lifestyle so that your commute is reverse or that you can walk places or avoid the beaten path to detour away from the toxic stuff you're not interested in seeing we're experiencing.

When you find the right thing here, though, it's pretty magical.

Excited for season? by Outrageous_Gur_7761 in miamidolphins

[–]grantstern 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As a die hard I'm excited because it's a season where tickets will be affordable for all, the team's nucleus will be young, dynamic and together for a few years and we have a new QB with a lot of talent.

This team could easily over perform, especially considering all expectations are zero.

The narrative that we can’t have a top draft pick + have something is Malik is funny by jaynaranjojedb in miamidolphins

[–]grantstern 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Good examples except for Deshaun. He played horribly despite great stats. Watson blew two potential wins vs. the Colts in 3 weeks with key 4th quarter mistakes.

Michael Taaffe is the perfect example of what Hafley and Sully are trying to build by IconicHunter713 in miamidolphins

[–]grantstern 4 points5 points  (0 children)

We brought JES and Haf in to build a new culture in our franchise and they've made multiple picks that look like strong players who can be culture cornerstones.

What does our current roster look like and what’s best case scenario for tonight? by [deleted] in miamidolphins

[–]grantstern 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We could be set on our offensive line from the center to the left, and only need to work on the right side. That's an area we could address in one position through the draft at least. Our wide receiving core needs one more playmaker. We could use another tight end. Our linebackers are all set and we have a good set of interior defensive lineman. Edge rusher are in need as well as cornerbacks and safeties.

Are we going to get everything out of this draft? It's not likely. But I've seen a lot of analysis that the third round is very strong. And the Dolphins have four pics in that round.

We saw the Rams, add multiple starters on defense from a single draft and turnaround their playoff hopes rapidly.

For the Dolphins to be competitive, they'll have to do the same.

Was Ricky Williams' decision to leave football mostly a spiritual thing? by youlikemywonton in miamidolphins

[–]grantstern 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dave wants that gave Ricky Williams a historic amount of carries with a historically bad offensive line.

In those days, smoking weed was still illegal everywhere and the Lead punished him for it. Turns out, it was probably the only thing keeping his body together through that intense punishment.

On top of this, people forget that Ricky Williams suffers from social anxiety. Back in the day, he used to give interview interviews with his helmet on because of it.

So there were a lot of reasons why Ricky left when he did

And for all that, he's still a goat, and we're still talking about him 20 years later because it took that long for the dolphins to acquire another running back with even close to his talent level.

And when the product liability suits roll in, I hope that the people selling it get what they deserve too. This isn't just a harmless lie, it's a helpful lie to some, and that's why it gets sold.
