It is snowing in St. Louis, which is a big deal to me because being a tropical kinda guy, I don't often walk through snow or have to deal with what snow does to your hair. But are the Dolphins concerned with today's flurries?
Not so much.
As you know they play the hapless St. Louis Rams at 1 p.m. today. As you also know we will blog live right from this site to all parts of the globe.
A reminder about today before I cut you loose. Paul Soliai is not playing today due to a suspension. Ernest Wilford will be active.
The Rams are starting Orlando Pace and Steven Jackson is expected to play. St. Louis middle linebacker Will Witherspoon is not expected to play. That means rookie David Vobora will start in the middle for St. Lou. Vobora should not be known to you other than the fact he was Mr. Irrelevant in the 2008 draft.
Yes, he was the last player selected in the draft.
Anyway, the Dolphins should be able to run the football. We shall see. Join me in the comments section below for the start of the live blog at kickoff.
UPDATE: Jason Allen, who injured a hand/wrist in last week's game, is inactive for today's game.
Oh Yeah Baby Its The Menace. Ill Be Here With Yot Dolphin Fans All Day,untill My Beloved Jets Game At 4pm.

Cant wait to see the Dolphins crush the Rams. It'll be nice after what I saw last game in the last 9 minutes. I just hope the snow won't effect the phins too much. Also I'm expecting both Ricky and Ronnie to have great games. GO DOLPHINS!!!
Posted by: GreatY2E | November 30, 2008 at 11:28 AM
Mando is Bulger starting today?

can someone give me the link to darksides site where game is streamed please
Posted by: eric | November 30, 2008 at 11:50 AM
Don't like the feel of this game. Thanksgiving holidays, coming off a tough loss, Orlando Pace back. A real trap. Salguero's cocky tripe above confirms it, he's like a bad luck charm.
Posted by: yuck | November 30, 2008 at 11:53 AM
*****Mando: do you think Al Johnson has a chance to be part of the long term plans? Or did they take flier on him...
Posted by: Hayden Fox | November 30, 2008 at 11:53 AM
Lets get something straight: Today will be a dogfight. The Rams will play their best game they have in weeks because they have some good players back and just the fact they are due to play better. Secondly, the Fins do not blow out anyone. However, in the end the Rams poor O-Line and inexperience in the front 7 will prove Miami the winner.
Posted by: Hayden Fox | November 30, 2008 at 11:59 AM
Beef Asks:MANDO,WHO IS ANNOUCING GAME,I THINK DIERDORFF IS WITH NEW ENG. STALKING CASSEL.

Nobody has shot menace (again), yet? I'd personally love to shoot him in the face...
Posted by: Marc | November 30, 2008 at 12:38 PM
why is allen inactive? I think this game will be close. We just don't have enough for a blowout win . Go Fins !!
Posted by: dolfanlee | November 30, 2008 at 12:38 PM
Where can I watch the phins on the net today?
Posted by: j.m. | November 30, 2008 at 12:39 PM
Why is Allen inactive? Because he still has burnmarks on his jersey from last week. As a cornerback, he makes an ok free safety.
Posted by: Robert | November 30, 2008 at 12:40 PM
Fact: The Jets were at home
Fact: The Rams did not have Steven Jackson
Fact: The Rams are at home today
Fact: The Jets are pretty good team
Fact: The Jets are simply boring to discuss or debate any further....

Thomas is terrible. Should be benched NOW.
Posted by: Andrew H | November 30, 2008 at 01:08 PM
And you thought J. Allen was bad, take a look at Joey Thomas.
Posted by: Joel | November 30, 2008 at 01:08 PM
Joey Thomas is awesome. Think that is a match up to exploit.
Posted by: Hayden Fox | November 30, 2008 at 01:08 PM
Joey thomas having a great day so far. Second pass interference of this drive.
Posted by: Armando Salguero | November 30, 2008 at 01:08 PM
