Happy for Tannehill. Dolphins are like the Orlando Magic of the NFL.

More like the Knicks tbh. But this new front office is giving me hope. They finally have direction.

At some point in the 2010 season I bookmarked all these raptor threads. I must have been researching posts to quote after the (then) upcoming free agency where I was sure we'd sign Bosh. I found it while going through old files to delete. I'm sure I have more of these in other bookmark files. I wasn't very organized in keeping these things in one place :lol:

Hello. I'm going to be in Miami later this year and want to catch a game. Can anyone give me some insight into which sections are the best value at American Airlines Arena? I'm guessing upper level sidelines (307-310 and 323-326)? Thanks.

That's usually where I sit when I go. Looks just like the standard tv view especially if you are closer to row 1 (the 320's side, other side is the reverse of tv).

Cool. Thanks for the reply.

Yea I could see the Chargers trying to jump. But even though his first Medicals were good , it is still a big risk to select a player with that kind of injury

Wonder if any of the troops died during the Iran strike?

If so, this isnt going end well.

Maybe this was Iran trying to distract from the fact that they killed hundreds of their own people and jailed thousands of others after they protested their government?

I'm not within their breaches, but might have been a response to the political assassination as they've stated

What was that in response to? And before that? At the end of the day, Iranian leadership is very insecure and trying to demonstrate they are still powerful by having an outside conflict to quell internal dissent. Maybe if they just let their people protest, they would legitimize their leadership and would not need a distraction.

I'm a little confused, what reasoning have you heard for that? Because I haven't heard much about protests in any of the reports

https://www.cnn.com/2019/12/06/middleeast/iran-un-protest-deaths-intl/index.html

Basically, the sanctions the US placed on Iran to change their behavior (desire for nuclear weapons, sponsoring terrorism against US and its allies) had a very devastating effect on the Iranian economy. As a result, the Iranian regime had to stop economic subsidies for fuel. Many people protested this and were shot/jailed. It was a very serious black eye on their regime’s legitimacy and is causing their leaders to pursue increasingly aggressive policies against the US to change US foreign policy.

It has become a game of chicken and the next move is on the US. Will have to see what Trump says tomorrow in his address to the nation.

I know about those protests, I was asking how you came to the conclusion that they were the cause of the assassination of Soleimani? If I'm not misunderstanding you
