    The Dolphins conducted their first night practice of training camp Wednesday in an atmosphere that provided more proof of the increasing buzz surrounding the team this year.

    For the third time in less than two weeks, fans jammed into the bleachers at the team's facility. But coach Tony Sparano said he actually had more of a motive to conduct the late practice -- which didn't begin until 8 p.m. -- than a night for the fans.

    yea...sporano had mentioned wanting to see how some of these guys did "under the lights" in more of a gametime atmosphere in hopes to help some of the younger guys and rooks with the nervousness they may have going into their first game which happens to be at night. i for one like the approaches sporano is using to relieve some of the overwhelmness a rook can have in their first nfl game.

    With the Dolphins doing more to help fans, by bringing buses from the West Coast, and Palm Beach and above for really cheap prices, we can only assume that there will be a lot more butts in the seats this year. And with the bandwagoners in full force, they will come too.

    Anyone know how many people were at yesterday's practice?

    Tony doesn't miss a bet does he? Get the guys some time under night lights to prepare for Monday, get them some extra rest, spend all morning on ST's, I am beginning to think Tony doesn't sleep at all, and if he does, he dreams football tactics.
