We were picked up by the Dolphins from the Renaissance Hotel in the morning, and waited for the rest of the Web Weekend participants to get to Dolphins Stadium. First there was a photo Op on the hallowed grounds of Dolphins Stadium. Then we had our first speaker of the day:

Jimmy Cefalo

We then went through a complete tour of the renovated Dolphins Stadium Locker Room. It had to be the most amazing locker room I have ever seen.

After a tour of the press box, we got to take pictures of the super bowl trophies, and with other stuff treasured by the Miami Dolphins. I'm to tired to upload pictures right now of a lot of that stuff. There are pics of us with the trophies that will be in our possession and/or on miamidolphins.com tomorrow.

We had some awesome dinner at the Player Lounge. What great food! Enough said!

Next, we had our speakers. As we were filing into the main Miami Dolphins film room, a short man waits for an opening in the line and squeezes into the room, and with that being said....I'll give you the run down in pure picture format.

Tim Ruddy (yes, that is Tim Ruddy)

They all took questions, I'm sure most of you would've been dying to ask Randy Mueller some personnel questions. I'm too tired to think of what I heard tonight, so I'll let you guys know some more details tomorrow or later this week.

In attendance tonight - FinheavenAJ, Muck, TerryTate

Special thanks to Scott Stone and Rodney!

We'll be there early in the morning for more Web Weekend Activities. Hope you guys enjoy the pics...more will be up soon!

And you keep getting better and everything. With all the work you do behind the scenes, good things shall happen :)
 
Looks like you guys are having a blast. Hope tomorrow is as good or better!
 
I'll chime in a few bits. I'm pretty tired and need to go to bed.

I can't stress enough how great a speaker Jimmy Cefalo is. He's honest and he knows what he's talking about (especially since he played 7 seasons in Miami). And I was fortunate to get a good 5 minutes with him as we walked the field and into the meeting room before the talk and Q&A. I wasn't hounding him or anything. He was just nice enough to go into great detail about questions I asked while we made our way.

Randy Mueller: I was suprised with his honesty. Actually, that was a running theme today. If you had a question, you pretty much got an honest answer. Anyway, I think there's a good chance he sticks around here. He seems pretty darn happy with his role here and what he's doing.

Nick Saban: So we're walking down a hallway. All of the sudden, I hear a quiet "How's it going?". I look over and Nick Saban is standing right next to me. It took me a second to process it and recover from my suprise. "Hey coach!!" I said and shook his hand. Was great hearing him speak in person. I was right in front of him. And he was very gracious in signing autographs and taking pics.

We asked a ton of questions today to a lot of important people about a lot of aspects of the team/organization. And we got good answers. But I'm seriously tired. So if you guys want to ask us a few things, myself or whomever else was there will be happy to relay them if it's a topic that was covered. I know, t's lame. But it would take all night and day to cover what we experienced today.

Thanks again to Scott and Rodney and everyone else in the Dolphins organization. Special shoutout to the ladies who prepared a fabulous meal for us. That was some good eating. You have an open invite to move into Muck's house permanently. I'll build an extra wing. :lol:

Best line ever. All fans of the Phins are jealous. The sit-down talk must have been great I could ask those guys questions for days.
