I know it was posted that Matt Moore wasnt happy about Hard Knocks, and it was said he wasnt happy becasue he was a bad practicer... Well I guess alot of the Dolphins are bad practicer's as well...

Anthony fasano on Sirius XMNFL regarding Hard Knocks news, " I wasnt to thrilled. There were alot of groans in the team meeting".... They must all be bad practicer's like Moore....

That might be the reason we are so good as a team.

I Nominate The Real Deal Tannehill For President.....The Next MONTANA-ELWAY-MARINO-AIKMAN- YOUNG-UNITAS Clone( in no particular order )

It's an intrusion and you can bet the dudes will get mocked by their peers for their documented f ups and such... It does put the process under a severe microscope and I don't think it's a great idea relative to the entire situation -- kind of like a 3-ring circus as IMO.

But hey, Ross is a Barney & Bailey style promoter and it’s his right as the owner to spread his clown act corn-dog persona on the entire gig, including training camp and team meetings…

Ha!

BNF.

See if anyone dares to show up out of shape this year.

Correct, BNF.

These guys are professionals and Ross is the owner. I am sure they will all get over it quickly when they pick up their paychecks.

My son (13yrs) is really excited about it. I think its going to be a great hour of fun with him. After the last decade.....the Dolphins owe us some fun.

They can get the f$#$ over it. They are paid millions to play a game for a living, I think the extra cameras in their faces will just have to be tolerated.

Anyone know how long Hard Knocks stays there?

- Is it the whole treaining camp? All sessions, only a few?
- Do they get full access?

The only issue I have is that in every camp there are trying times where people heat up in the moment and then its forgotten ... I'm sure that hard knocks and most media will tend to fan those flames and make a story even when there isn't one.

The media has grown to be a bit of a cancer in my mind over the past 10-15 years in that it seems to be less factual and more of how can I sell a story true or not.

- That said, most people know that and take what comes out of the media with a grain of salt. If the players don't over react it wont matter any way.

In listening to a number of player interviews recently, there is one thing that is quite evident:

This coaching staff and their approach is very much appreciated and respected by the players ... not in a fearful way but in a far more open and comfortabvle pride in being on the team.

Its been a long time coming: Saban > Parcells > Sparano all had such a control mentality that people weren't allowed to say squat, and a fearful environment.

This team has a lot more going for it than in the past because they sound a lot more like a team than a bunch of guys being paid to tow the line.

I think the Hard Knocks thing may go better than I thought
