North's Notes and Quotes (First Quarter of 2012)

dolphan north — Sun, 07 Oct 2012 09:33:34 +0100

With a quarter of the season gone, it is time to throw out a few quotes. I have to admit, I have been a little overwhelmed at work starting off a particularly busy school year. That might be part of the reason I did not collect quotes from the Houston game. Plus, who was really in the mood to write anything after the Houston game? So let's just look at that as a rough start, where we actually showed some signs of the positive course we are now charting. Bottom line is, our team stuc...

Phinzmania Interview with Les Brown V

Imaginary Moderator — Sat, 21 Apr 2012 00:31:50 +0100

Less than a month ago, not a soul in Miami could have told you anything about an NFL prospect named Les Brown; not even Coach Philbin or the rest of the staff. All of that abruptly changed, however, after BYU’s Pro Day where 24 year old Brown put up some truly mind boggling numbers in the 40 yard dash (4.43) and vertical leap (39 inches). The story gets even more bizarre though because this 6’ 4”, 238 pound athlete was not a senior at BYU ...

Fantasy Football: Running Back Trade Value Chart

Thunderbolt89 — Fri, 28 Oct 2011 01:13:00 +0100

Hello Phinzmania, welcome to another edition of my fantasy football blog. Last week, I pieced together a trade value chart for quarterbacks. Originally there was a good description with the chart but somehow the blog didn't save right. It was brought to my attention the chart would require further explanation.

20 represents the highest value for the elite players at their position. 15 and up are the play-makers who should net good value. 10-15 are the decent players that still have som...

Slow Days For Miami Dolphins

Gerard T Fanner, Jr. — Thu, 20 Oct 2011 15:46:56 +0100

If you, like most Americans, have been tuning into your directstarTV to keep tabs on the NFL so far, then you have been treated to a season full of early drama, surprise contenders, and standout performances. In fact, this season has already been overflowing with fantastic storylines. The Packers are looking dominant in their quest to repeat, with Aaron Rodgers putting up MVP numbers; Cam Newton may be the biggest rookie sensation in years, and has had the Panthers extremely competitive in ev...

Fantasy Football Week 5 Waiver Claims

Thunderbolt89 — Fri, 07 Oct 2011 05:49:49 +0100

Hello fantasy football fans. I had to take a small hiatus due to school workload. I'm back with a new edition for waiver wire pickups.

QB-

Curtis Painter- I say now would be the smart time to pick up Painter. Painter posted a 99.4 rating on Monday Night Football tossing the rock for 281 yards and 2 touchdowns. If you have a QB on a bye week, it would be a decent fill in start. Painter clearly outplayed Kerry Collins, so the Colts should show confidence in Painter.

Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Gems

Thunderbolt89 — Thu, 15 Sep 2011 20:58:23 +0100

Hello everyone welcome to a new blog for Phinzmania. It is fantasy football talk and this week I'm going to discuss waiver wire gems for you to search for in your fantasy football leagues.

QB-

Rex Grossman-yYes that Rex Grossman. If you find yourself needing a good quarterback to place on your bench look no further. I know sometime Grossman can throw erratic interceptions from time to time, but he should be a valuable asset as a backup and looked very sharp in the Redskins...

An Interview with Anlgp

Thunderbolt89 — Sat, 27 Aug 2011 01:19:27 +0100

Hi, what was your favorite holiday as a kid?
Anlgp: Christmas for the time spent over at my grandmother's house. I'm 26 and I've spent 26 Christmas's there. It's one time out of a few the whole family gets together and all are cheerful.

Anlgp: Along the defensive line.

In your free time, what are things you like to participate in?

Miami Dolphins 2011 Season - The Play

dolphan north — Sat, 27 Aug 2011 00:18:44 +0100

As some of you know, I like to have an original format in which to write my thoughts on the season as it progresses. Poems, quotes, and now I have decided to try a play. Bear with me, I am not taking myself seriously at all here. I am merely reporting on some of the happenings of the season as they progress in the form of a play that spoofs pretty much everyone who makes the news. Well that's about it as strange as it sounds so let's give it a ...
