GLENDALE, Ariz. -- Got here extremely early for today's game between the Dolphins and Cardinals and ran into a former league source now working for the Cardinals. Asked him the real chances of his team trading receiver Anquan Boldin this year.
"Zero," he said. "Absolutely zero. I don't know what will happen after the season but I just don't see Anquan going anywhere this year."
So much for the rumors of Boldin coming to the Dolphins. While I wish that could happen for Miami's sake it just isn't in the, pardon the pun, cards. I know Boldin is from Florida. I know his agent Drew Rosenhaus would like to make it happen and continues to press Arizona to trade Boldin.
But the Cards hold all the, pardon the pun again, cards.
They have rebuffed at least one team's inquiry about Boldin and they have refused to give Rosenhaus permission to shop his client.
Understand that doesn't mean Boldin might not be moved in the offseason or some time before his current contract expires in 2010. But he is just as likely to get a new deal in Arizona before then as get traded.
So much for that rumor.
I can report to you that Ernest Wilford will be active today. The Dolphins are making Brandon London inactive to make room for Wilford on the active roster. Ricky Williams is still scheduled to start. Greg Camarillo will start at wide receiver.
Anyway, I hope you guys are ready for today's live blog. It'll start at kickoff. Join me then.
finally something positive.

Anyone think its a possibility we dont win a game this year?
Posted by: | September 14, 2008 at 07:00 PM
then made up for it
Posted by: harricane | September 14, 2008 at 07:00 PM
Screw this. This team is CURSED. Losing at the last second to the friggin Jets is one thing, but getting pasted by the CARDS? After Sparano called this week a MUST WIN?????
Please-whoever messed up and caused a Witch Doctor to place an evil Voodoo vibe on the Fins, SAY YOU'RE SORRY, YOU IDIOT!

Hey Kevin if we go 2-14 we will actually have improved. Now that's funny.

we do play the chiefs, they looked bad today
Posted by: bertball50 | September 14, 2008 at 07:01 PM
Bench Penny, start Henne and let's see if he's got what it takes because we very well may be first in line for Tebow

TOUCH DOWN FINS!

This game has redeeming value. Henne gets some work. Gains some confidence.

Posted by: Pete in otown | September 14, 2008 at 07:02 PM

Is armando asleep?
Posted by: biff | September 14, 2008 at 07:03 PM
Henne's strong arm will make a huge difference to the offensive play calling. DEFENSES don't RESPECT Pennington's arm.

We are flucked for years to come

Posted by: bertball50 | September 14, 2008 at 07:03 PM
Coaches are not smart enough to start Henne.That would be admitting they f***ed up.
Posted by: Tony T Bone | September 14, 2008 at 07:03 PM
Ok which Chad do we start next week,sorry as my team may be, I know I will sit and watch them again..

guys, its all on the secondary today and penny....quit kidding yourself....henne is the future
Posted by: harricane | September 14, 2008 at 07:04 PM
Guys the Cards are a very good team and the fox crew picked them to go deep into the playoffs this morning. I know the Cards have sucked for a long time but they have been rebuilt and are going to turn some heads this year. It's not like we got beat by KC.
Posted by: Account Deleted | September 14, 2008 at 07:04 PM
Well who said Henne was a bad idea...
Posted by: James-Ireland | September 14, 2008 at 07:04 PM
sparano should show some balls and start Henne, i agree we certainly look to be in line for tebow if Henne doesnt have the talent to be the guy. And if he is just think of what we could get from a team who wants Tebow?
Posted by: Pete in otown | September 14, 2008 at 07:04 PM
LOL hey retard bitching about no name posts....you haven't posted a name yet!!!! WTG

COME ON ARMANDO BABY!!! AREN'T YOU EXCITED FOR YOUR FINS? THEY JUST SCORED A TD!!!!!!
Posted by: | September 14, 2008 at 07:05 PM
i am a fan since 69, how do u think i feel
Posted by: harricane | September 14, 2008 at 07:05 PM
I would not start Henne.. I would do the same thing as today if we keep losing games. Give him time to sit back and watch the game before going into a game in the second half.
Posted by: mark | September 14, 2008 at 07:05 PM
Armandos not asleep, he's running a live blog from what he told us. He just forgot to tell us it wouldn't be in here, maybe he's on myspace.

They should have a reality show like everything else, and if you win, you win a chance to be GM for the Dolphins...At least people would watch the reality show!

well this will be the final miami game televised till 2010
Posted by: Larry A. | September 14, 2008 at 07:06 PM
I know its early, but Henne did something on his fisrt drive that Beck couldn't get done in 27 quarters of football... take em into paydirt. Nice drive by our future. Yeas he does have a better arm than chad and i think he may be obe or two games from starting. Did you see how the offensive players responded to him, he has something special. A glimmer of hope to discuss all week now.... a QB contro

I know it is early to say and he scored on a defense problay playing soft prevent, but thatis what you are supposed to do when given the opportinity, but we may have found MARINOS SUCCESSOR, now if we can only find SHULAS SUCCESSOR!!!

Posted by: The Boz | September 14, 2008 at 07:08 PM
There should be a mercy rule for Dolphin games...if their opponent scores 20 points, it should be over. the dolphins will never be able to score 20.
