We finally have a chance to have a winning record this week.  We dug out of a deep hole and find ourselves in a great spot. If we can beat the Bills this week and the Patriots lose to the Saints, next week sets up to be a battle for first place in the division. But before we can get ahead of ourselves we need to take care of these Bills.  They are falling apart but they played a lot better last week under a new coach.  They held Mo-Jo Drew to under 100 yards and TO had nearly a 200 yard game for them with Ryan Fitzpatrick replacing Trent Edwards. We can’t take this team lightly.  Should be a fun one.

Now, I hope you guys had a great Thanksgiving wherever you may have had it, but I hope you will be back in time.  I am in DC myself right now, but I will be taking a train first thing in the morning to get to Third & Long in time for the game.  I hope to see as many people out as we had last week, that was a fantastic experience. And to keep things interesting, check out this video of Dolphin great Kim Bokamper giving DolfansNYC a shout out from his restaurant in South Florida.  If you are in town for a game, you have to stop by Bokampers.

Go Dolphins!

Finally we have something to smile about! It’s so much easier taking photos when we are kicking the snot out of another team… Especially the hated Bills.  Even though the Patriots are probably the most hated team in the history of football, and the Jets have given us nightmares over the last decade, I still hate the Bills most of all.  Growing up watching Jim Kelly keep Dan out of Super Bowl after Super Bowl I just get enraged whenever I see blue and red.

Anyway, I think I got some good pictures this week, check them out below. If you want to download a picture, click the slide show and it will link to our Flicker account.

Thanks so much for the amazing turnout on Sunday as the Dolphins beat the Bills to finally break the losing streak! We had an awesome time at Third and Long and cannot wait for MONDAY NIGHT FOOTBALL when we face our hated rivals, the New York Jets!!!! Photos from the bar on Sunday will be posted soon.

And speaking of the Jets….as many of you know, we bought 20 tickets to attend the November 1st game Fins vs Jets at the Meadowlands. All 20 tickets have been snapped up already. However, we’ve had a lot of people express an interest in going in on additional tickets. We can certainly buy another row of 10 seats, but need a guarantee that you are able to reimburse us the day of purchase (like we did with the last set of tickets).

The total came out to $86 and the seats are in the 300’s sections.We have one row on one end of the stadium and one row on the other end. There’s no guarantee with Ticketmaster that the 3rd row will be in the same section as the others, but there’s a good chance it will be close by.
If you are interested, please let us know so that we can try to coordinate all the details.
We will know as we get closer to the date as far as tailgate details and where we can all meet up to pre-party. More info to follow….

Coming up….
November 9th — Dolphins vs Patriots – We will be hosting a tailgate party at Third and Long! Decorations, snacks, specials prizes, charity raffle, etc etc. Mark your calendars!!!

See you on Monday night! Game starts at 830!

I want to see all you guys out at Third and Long this week. This is a big one.

1. This is a division game.
2. 4 of the next 5 games are division games.
3. This is Henne’s first start.

If we win the next two games before the bye week, this season will look a lot brighter.

I hope to see us all out in full force for the game today at 4:05. We need to win. This is do or die.

Michelle is back today and she is probably bringing with her more stuff to raffle off and stories of meeting Ricky Williams last week.

Go Dolphins!
