Well the good news is that I found out that RM works on my computer.
The bad news is that apparently I missed this show :( :( :( (Hopefully they'll have a repeat)

(And WHY WHY WHY didn't I listen to RM on my way home instead of Boers and Berstein talking about stupid Milton Bradley :( :( :( )

On ESPN they just said that Jimmy Buffett stopped by the set. Did he do an interview too or are they just talking about the show?

I don't think Jimmy is an part owner:

Marc Anthony is a minority owner of Dolphins.
http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/news/story?id=4344721
Ross, a New York real estate billionaire, completed his purchase of the Dolphins from Wayne Huizenga in January. He began a partnership in May with Jimmy Buffett's Margaritaville enterprise, which includes Land Shark Lager.

Buffett has yet to accept Ross' invitation to become a minority owner, but the Dolphins' stadium has been renamed Land Shark Stadium for this season. Buffett has also written a song for the team.


Emilio and Gloria Estefan are minority owners:

I didn't think he was a owner - just in partnership with them on the stadium name and other stuff like that

Ok, that explanins it. I had the same question when they didn't mention him.

Would rather have seen Jimmy and the 600 parrotheads on the field dancing to Fins than the Toyota halftime report they showed instead. I swear they recapped the first half 3 + times one right after the other.

I do have two questions:

1. Are they selling Landshark at the stadium?

2. How did they find the 600 parrotheads. Did JB send a notice out to the local PH clubs etc. Just curious?

It is cool to see the words Fins Up on the monitor at the top of the stadium. Also to hear the song when they score!!

Can't wait to see photos of the pregame concert.

I didn't expect to see any of JB's performance. They never show the halftime show on MNF

Why would they call the stadium where the Dolphins play a big fish tank? Dolphins are mammals, not fish.

I wonder if he played the lame rewritten version of Fins

If you own a share of stock you are a part owner. He should buy the DisAstros
