Top 10 all time movie for sure
I’m often asked about the pegboard scene in VISION QUEST. That was all me. No stunt doubles or safety measures. I trained for a long time and had to climb it several times to get all the angles. The “trick” is not to over extend, so you’d be pulling up your entire body weight. You have to keep it compact. Arms and elbows tight. 💪🏽 You can support the @FMJDiary project by bidding on a signed VQ poster here: ebay.com/itm/206252131912

Couldn’t agree with you more!!
I respect all opinions. If the Willis doubters end up right -- and if the Dolphins regime that watched him every day AND South Florida media AND 3 longtime NFL quarterbacks AND other ex-players (D. Woody) & NFL executives (Riddick) with network TV jobs & everyone else who praised Willis and this signing are wrong - so be it. But if you are a Dolphins fan, I don't know why you would gloat and celebrate if you end up being right; that wouldn't be becoming IMO. Regardless, Dolphins will have cap room and wherewithal to find another QB if this doesn't work out.

Good one! lol
He’s already gained more yards than the Patriots.

Maybe you should of had @MelKiperESPN ask him…
I just spoke on the phone with Bill Polian and asked whether he was an influence on Bill Belichick being snubbed by the Hall of Fame. His quote: “That’s totally and categorically untrue. I voted for him."

Ross values “can he get along with …” higher than he does winning. Fans want W’s not how much of a good guy the head coach is..

I like this move. Means they are serious about going thru the process to find the right guy. Otherwise they could have taken the easy route by going with Champ.
The Miami Dolphins have brought on Hall-of-Fame QB and ESPN analyst Troy Aikman as a consultant to advise the organization on its general manager search process, per sources.   It is not a permanent role, but he will be an advisor throughout the process for the Dolphins’ next GM.

As a softball dad, no place I’d rather be on a Saturday morning in Jupiter. Getting some reps in with Sam.

Did last year’s Fins team in total even have 4 interceptions for the entire year? Can you imagine this happening now.
December 3, 1973 "THE DICK ANDERSON GAME" On MNF in Miami, #Dolphins ballhawking safety Dick Anderson collects FOUR first-half interceptions — including TWO pick-sixes — in a 30-26 #PhinsUp victory over the Steelers. One of the greatest individual performances in #NFL history

Thanks. Now I feel old.
40 Years Ago Tonight December 2, 1985 With many members of the undefeated 1972 #Dolphins squad in the house, Miami hands the 12-0 #Bears their first and only loss of the 1985 season, 38-24 on Monday Night Football at the Orange Bowl — preserving the '72 Dolphins as #NFL history's only undefeated team. Miami uses designed roll outs for Dan Marino, as head coach Don Shula outsmarts the "sack happy" Chicago defensive coordinator Buddy Ryan by placing receiver Nat Moore in the slot. Ryan stubbornly stays with linebacker Wilber Marshall covering him until it's too late. #PhinsUp It is the highest-rated, most-watched MNF game ever (46% share, 29.6 rating).

About time ..
ESPN Sources: Miami Dolphins and general manager Chris Grier met this morning and mutually agreed to part ways. Grier has been with the Dolphins since 2000, and has served as their general manager since 2016.
