Know What's Great For Cardio? Soccer.

Thursday Bullets:

- The Browns are now in on the Trent Green sweepstakes. I propose we give the Browns the 6th round pick we got from Denver for them to take Green and end this madness.

- David Carr’s “camp” – whatever that is – is saying Carr might be looking to go to a contending team as its backup quarterback for a year or two and wait for his shot. This article suggests that Seattle and Carolina might be Carr’s best option for that plan. And the NFL Network’s Adam Schefter says that Carr has a visit scheduled with the Seahawks next week. And the Raiders are saying they might jump in on the Carr pursuit also. Meanwhile, Randy Mueller is sitting with his thumbs up his ass because Carl Peterson’s leading him by the balls.

- The Fins have expressed some interest in Broncos free agent guard Cooper Carlisle. I know there’s a lot of interest from Dolphins fans about Miami drafting Levi Brown with the 9th pick, and a lot of "expert" mock drafts have him going to the Fins as well. But Cam has said that an offense can play at a high level even without a franchise left tackle. I could be wrong, but don’t be shocked if the Dolphins pass Brown over and fill their O-line needs in the latter portion of the draft.

- Opening Day is right around the corner. I am psyched. JD’s got a nice profile on Marlins new centerfielder Alejandro De Aza. Check it out, Fish fans.

- Sweet baby Jesus, have you seen the blimp formally known as soccer great Diego Maradona??? Maradona is famous for leading Argentina over England in the 1986 World Cup semis with his famous Hand-of-God goal. Now he looks like he ate England.

He’s also done enough coke to kill a small horse.

Anyway, this news is not Miami sports based. This one’s for my Dad – Dude The Elder – because he’s a big soccer fan and because, when I was a kid, he taught me the great game of soccer. We had this running gag where he’d ask me to stand in as goalie while he placed the ball down and kicked it towards the goal. He’d then kick the ball with the outside of his foot, causing the ball to twirl haphazardly in all kinds of crazy directions before it swung violently nowhere near the goal. This made me crack up til my sides hurt. Every time. Hey, I was 7. Anyway, he called that his secret weapon. Its name: The Maradonia.
And yes, Dad, that picture is real. (Yes, my Dad reads the MSD daily).

Hey Dude...if your dad is reading, er um, maybe i should stop cussing like a sailor(o.k. maybe under my breath a little bit)...I really hope we address the O-line early in the draft...I know we need help everywhere but the O-line (aside from that pesky QB sit'chuation) has been too long overlooked, if not Levi Brown, then somebody, and early!!!I wish i could get inside the MuelCam's mind and find out what's going on...Carr is ready to rev up and we've got him stalling...
 
Ah, don't worry about it LP. My Old Man gets a kick out of it all. To this day his favorite thing about MSD was all the "fuck Saban" comments that were left back when Nick left for 'Bama.

I hear ya about the draft. I'm really curious about that first pick. It will pretty much set the tone for the rest of the draft for them.
 
FUCKIN AAAA.... LADY PHIN!!! I WAS A SAILOR ONCE AND I STILL CUSS LIKE ONE. ON TO MORE IMPORTANT THINGS, HELL YEAH WE NEED D. CARR TO RUN THIS OFFENSIVE MESS AND I TOO AGREE ABOUT OUR O-LINE, IT'S GOT MORE HOLES THAN MUELCAMS ASSES PUT TOGETHER!! AND DON'T WORRY ABOUT DAD, HE'S HIP.
 
Awww...you guys make a lady feel fucking great! : )

LP
 
Fuck Maradona! The hand of god was the most shameful play in football history. Only a has been hack like Diego (and the Argentina Fans) would celebrate a cheat play like that.

Is there really any argument as to who the greatest ever was?
 
By Football do you mean Soccer?

Just kidding...I'm cool with Soccer(or Football, depending on where you grew up) Its too bad MLS is such a joke, the World Cup is an incredible even to watch, especially if you are Italian!

VIVA AZZURI!!

Boy the Dolphins news has grinded to a hault. I can't wait for the draft or for us to make up our damn minds on a QB. It will answer a lot of our questions. I'm still hoping for Carr. The only new thing I heard is that we are looking at Denver Free Agent G Cooper Carlisle. I say we snag him because we need all the help we can get.

Atleast, Opening Day is right around the corner. Good Luck Marlins fans, but my loyalties(unfortunately) lie with the Cubs. I was pulling for you in both of your title runs, despite our great collapse against you I feel no bitterness. Although maybe I should we haven't won it all in 100 years while you have won twice in the last decade.

Hey Anon: You can say pretty much whatever you want here at MSD and if you disagree with another commenter about anything and want to tell them so, that's cool. But one thing I won't allow are insults between commenters. That just doesn't fly here, man. Sorry.
