    That place will be bananas this Sunday Evening.

    How sweet is it for Zach Thomas to be in that role?

    Maybe, I do recall the 72 dolphins Team appearing on a monday night when an undefeated Bears squad rolled into Miami.

    Just sayin'.

    Zach has gotten the loudest cheers by a huge margin when he was announced as a player. I'm sure he will be absolutely swarmed with a welcome yell as will Madison. What better person to have while his brother in law is now in puke green...

    I wonder how JT will feel seeing those 3 together while he tries to help the Jets beat their team.

    It was, the Orange Bowl was literally shaking there was such excitement, the Bears Qb had problems with the noise, it was awesome.

    I think the 85 Bears v Dolphins game has been posted on youtube.

    And after the way Zach Thomas was waived it is good to see everything fine between the Dolphins Franchise and Zach.

    It would be classic if he walks to the middle of the field, strips off his Jets uni then runs to the Dolphins sidelines and hugs the 3 of them and they walk off together...LOL

    Maybe that will help Dolphans occupy and buy up tickets instead of Jest fans. Great news.

    They should all be wearing orange jackets.

    Yeah no small coincidence that this is happening with JT coming to town. I hope JT is healthy and playing opposite Jake Long... he will then become a part of the dirt infield. Which I'm assuming is still "in play" ugh...

    How crazy will the crowd continue to get if we open up the game with a huge play? Maybe Clifton Smith takes Ginn's "Jet's killer" title this Sunday night?

    In honor of Zach being in attendance, Karlos Dansby will knock out Laveranues Coles during the game.

    How is JT a dickwad? WE DID NOT OFFER HIM TO STAY. It wasn't his fault we didn't want to keep him. He still wants to play football, so what is he supposed to do? Quit playing the game he loves just cause of how some delusional fans would think of him? lol please dude.

    It sucks that he is a Jet, but get over it, he wanted to be a Dolphin and the FO didn't want him.

    I don't believe that is true, from what I know about the situation, the offer was made in late december to double his earnings, because JT was approaching free agency again, his agent instructed him to wait til the offseason, cause they might get more money, which in return, the regime took as disrespect seeing that we allowed him to come home from washington..

    I think double the salary was appropo for what kind of player he is today.

    That's been hashed over a million times in this and other forums. The front office actually offered him 2 contracts. One in November...rejected...then another in February (I think) for less money...rejected....then he wanted to talk about a month before the draft and they essentially told him to pound sand.

    If that is true I apologize cause I didn't know. All I am saying is that Jason Taylor doesn't seem like the person that was looking for an excuse to go play for the Jets. As fans I know it's hard to separate the player from the person, but I am sure the guy is just trying to do whats right for him and his family. I have heard that he does want to come back and live in Miami when he is done playing, so he obviously likes it here.

    Yes, we did. Twice. The first offer was verbal. JT asked for something in writing. Bill Parcells wrote down a second offer on a sticky note. JT was offended.

    Yes, there was a press conference earlier this year ... he got real emotional and choked up.

    I'd expect him in the Ring of Honor next year.

    That s what I was thinking. No matter what he says, that is gonna eat JT up inside. Orange jerseys, the Jets, primetime, now this. We win, this will be an all time favorite methinks
