Used to ride that at the Dade County Youth Fair years ago.

Dade county youth fair now that’s something I haven’t thought about in years. Good times.

True. In this case, no news may be good news. The fact that there’s no activity gives the impression that Miami already has an idea as to what’s going on.

I believe we already interviewed enough other candidates so if Fangio does not sign here, one of the other candidates will be announced as DC.

This is true......we like to keep things inside the family. My dad always told me since I was a kid not to share things with outsiders.

Not to share anything besides spreading the word of Ozzy.

This whole thing reminds me of this scene from Swingers:

If not signed elsewhere

fun fact.

if you give (or lose) your right nut or left nut the nut that remains completely loses its identity.

it just becomes your nut.

We talk about Jags ("Just Another Guy") who are replaceable. But your nut may be named Jan ("Just Another Nut"). Replaceability unknown.

I have it on good authority that the reason he hasn’t signed is because he’s still laughing at Baker’s tape from last year. He’ll sign as soon as he calms down.

Wait till he gets to that third and long play against the Chargers and that formation

Gif doesn't do the cringiness justice. Gotta watch the video.

With respect, that isn't what Fangio's personal history has shown. He is an old-school Italian from a generation which doesn't feel compelled to share every detail with the media.

Its much more realistic that he has a contract as consultant with the Eagles which has a non-compete clause, which forbids him from signing (with any other team) until their season concludes. He has agreed in principle and details with the Dolphins but cant sign the agreement with us until after the SB. The media reports that Fangio had finalized an agreement are likely technically correct, and viewers then take it to the next level that the contract is signed...blah blah blah.

When Fangio was asked directly, his response that it wasn't completed (nobody has the actual quote, to my knowledge.") is correct, but more because he is prohibited from signing and/or discussing it (if he also has a non-disclosure with the Eagles or Dolphins) .

Please note that because of the whole Brady/Peyton incident, our Dolphins are playing it very safe by being ultra sensitive about any disclosures.

I hope this is exactly the case. Getting so excited about him signing here, it will be crushing to have to settle for 2nd or 3rd choice at DC at this point

At this point. Might as well just forget the DC vacancy exists until we see someone at the Phins podium. It'll make ya nuts and I'm already Loco.

Dolphins have an agreement with Fangio.....it seems Fangio doesn’t have an agreement with the Dolphins....

I guess a man's handshake isn't worth what it was years ago.
