Weekend Update

Dolphins put the SmackDown on Raiders

Congratulations Coach Sparano, Jim Mandich and the entire Miami Dolphins Football Team!

In convincing fashion and looking like the Dolphins of old, week 13 had Dolphins fans saying “what if” based on their play today.  Looking unstoppable on both sides of the ball as well as special teams, the Miami Dolphins beat up on the Oakland Raiders 34-14 on a special day at Sun Life Stadium.

Jim Mandich, the former Dolphins tight end and local radio personality, died in April due to complications from bile duct cancer. And today, the Dolphins added him to their Honor Roll, which rings the upper deck of Sun Life Stadium. Mandich’s name took its place alongside former teammate Bill Stanfill.

When you have the likes of Don Shula, past Dolphin Hall of Famers and the Mandich Family highlighting your halftime show, it’s a pretty tough act to follow.  Today’s performance made everyone proud and reminded us what a great club we were, are and can ultimately be again.
