NFL Season Preview: Miami Dolphins
We are officially less than a month before the start of the NFL season, so it's probably time to start previewing the monster. The key to the NFL's success — other than fantasy football and gambling, of course — is the rabid nature of its fans. That is to say: You don't see a lot of people painting ...

We Don't Know How Hootie Didn't Sneak In This Video
We couldn't decide which dopey fan cheer song we were going to go with today: This brand new Reds one or the above Dolphins video from the early '90s. We decided to go with the Dolphins one, if just because we figured we'd look bitter and/or scared if we just focused on the Reds....

Dolphins Not Liable For Future Damages, So You Know
We don't mean to imply that the Miami Dolphins are covering their tailfeathers a bit with Marcus "New Mexico" Vick, whom they just signed to a free agent contract, but here's what was included in the official press release about the signing....

Where In NYC Is Ricky Williams?
Somewhere in New York City right now, Miami Dolphins running back Ricky Williams is in an office building, appealing his suspension for drug abuse. (Hey ... we're in New York! Is that Ricky over there?) Apparently, they moved the location of the hearing to avoid all the reporters camped out in fro...

Culpepper Now Free To Have Naked Women Dance In His General Vicinity (But There, And Only There)
New Dolphins quarterback Daunte Culpepper need not worry about the potential new ramifications of the term "lap dance" from jail; he has been cleared of all charges in the sex boat incident. His former teammate Moe Williams was not so lucky; he'll still have to strand trial, along with decidedly m...

What Is A Lap Dance? You Know, In An Existential Sense, Aren't We All Just God's Lap Dancers?
So the Vikings sex boat trial in Minnesota is going on, like, right now. Well, kind of; former quarterback Daunte Culpepper and fullback Moe Williams are trying to talk a judge into dismissing charges against them. The two players were charged, pretty much, with receiving lap dances, which has spu...

Williams' Career May Have Gone Up In Smoke
Ricky Williams' 2006-07 season has apparently ended before it began, as Denver TV station KDVR reported late Sunday that the Dolphins running back has either failed another drug test, or failed to show up for one. Either would be a violation serious enough for the running back, who has been suspen...

Randy McMichael's Refreshing Candor
It's been about 48 hours since the Eagles officially gave agent Drew Rosenhaus permission to shop around his star client, Terrell Owens, and, um, let's just say this about the response so far: Drew can go to the movies without worrying about his cell phone bothering anyone. In fact, one of Rosenhau...

Athlete Run-In: The '72 Dolphins Get Even More Desperate
Today's first athlete run-in story is timely because it concerns a retired player on a team that's in the news right now: The 1972 Dolphins. You know, those guys who hang on to being the only undefeated team like they cured polio or something? Kind of a sad group. It therefore didn't surprise us t...

Frerotte's Frothing Wife's Limp Gesture
One would think that when one's husband once missed a significant chunk of the season after willing slamming his head into a wall on national television, one would have a better sense of one's humor about criticism of one's husband. One would be wrong....

With Enough Weed, What's The Difference?
From the NFL Wives Yahoo Group, in response to the query (not from us, we swear) "Ladies please name any and every athlete whether NFL, NBA or NCAA that is Bi Sexual or just plain GAY!!!."...

To this end, Deadspin salutes these modem-addled souls and proudly presents Blogdom's Best, given to the most outstanding blog for each NFL ...

Mike Wallace's Dogged Pursuit For Truth
We will confess confusion about "60 Minutes" decaying muckraker Mike Wallace's strange obsession with Dolphins running back Ricky Williams.

NFL Roundup: It's Possible That Plummer Just Isn't That Good
Other Thoughts On The First Weekend Of The NFL: • As the only guy who ever brought the Buzzsaw to the playoffs, we will always have a soft spot for Broncos quarterback Jake Plummer.

McMichael's Wife Dropped From Fantasy Rosters
Just about two months after being arrested for throwing his wife from their car — it was his second arrest for spousal abuse within a year — Dolphins tight end Randy McMichael has pleaded out, accepting a misdemeanor of "trespassing," on his wife, in a similar way that Jason Christensen "trespasse...

All Hail The Fourth Estate
We find it strange that "60 Minutes" second-place curmudgeon Mike Wallace has such a fascination with Dolphins stoner Ricky Williams, but apparently he does: He's in Dolphins camp this week for another round of interviews.
