Live from the NFL Draft!
Hey Dolfans! We couldn't be any more excited than we are right now! We spent 7 1/2 hours interviewing fans here at Radio
City Music Hall and boy is that an enthusiastic bunch! Fans of all 32 teams (including TONS of Dolphins fans) camped out overnight
and braved the rain to wait in line for tickets.
Right now we're inside Radio City and they are about 6 picks in. The energy here is amazing and we can't wait
to share our footage with you. Be sure to check on
www.miamidolphins.com/2michelles . Our videos should be posted shortly.
Enjoy the rest of the draft and GO DOLPHINS!!!!!!

It's Draft Time!!!
Hey football fans! Third time's a charm, right? This will be our third year in a row waking up early on a Saturday
morning and heading out to Radio City Music Hall to be with our fellow Dolfans for what is shaping up to be an exciting
draft weekend!
We've received messages from many of you expressing your excitement over
Jake Long joining the team and we definitely share those emotions with you! He's a great addition to the team and we can't wait to
see him play in a Dolphins uniform!
The first pick is taken care of, but there are many more to go and we're looking forward to seeing what happens!
If you are planning on attending the draft, please let us know. If you can't make it, we hope you will catch our videos
on the
Miami Dolphins Website.

Dancing with the....2Michelles?!?!
That's right! We set out to see if we can do what Jason Taylor has been doing every week for his gig on the TV show
Dancing with the Stars. Is it really as tough as he says it is? Does he simply make it look easy?
We strapped on some dancing shoes and hit the studio to give it a try! Let's just say it made for some very interesting
and funny footage that we're very excited to share with you!
Check out
www.miamidolphins.com/2michelles to see our two-part journey through Rumbas, Cha-Chas and Salsas and to see if we can be both die-hard football fans AND ballroom
dancers!
For more information on dance lessons in the New York City area, please visit
www.steppingoutstudios.com and don't be afraid to give it a go!
Make sure you tune in on Monday evenings to see Jason Taylor rock the dance floor and don't forget to vote for him after
the show!

Back Again!
Wow, I can't believe it's been 2 months since the last update on this site! When I logged in I was amazed I still remembered
how to use this program. :)
Where has the time gone? Well, I recently shipped off to London for over a month as part of a short-term assignment through
work. Sadly, I missed the Super Bowl, but was woken up at 3:00am thanks to numerous texts and messages congratulating the
Dolphins on keeping their perfect record. It was tough going back to sleep after that. I was stunned. Still have the game
saved on my DVR and am looking forward to watching it.
So you can only imagine my surprise after leaving for a few short weeks and coming back to all sorts of changes with
my beloved Dolphins. The biggest, of course, and the one that filled my in-box with "I'm sorry" e-mails from friends, was
the departure of my favorite player, Zach Thomas. Holy crap. I can't believe I'm going to see him in Cowboys gear next season.
That's gonna hurt. But better than Jets or Pats gear. (always have to look on the bright side!)
Now I'm left with the task of buying a jersey for the new season. Any suggestions??
I've also come back to find Jason Astaire, er, Taylor, strutting his stuff on
Dancing with the Stars! I think it's so great that he signed on for the show! That stuff is NOT easy. Also something I've got saved on DVR and can't
wait to watch!
Perhaps JT can recommend a choreographer to teach us a new dance since we can no longer do the Marty Booker dance. We
(and our friend Tino who came up with the dance) will definitely miss seeing him on our team!
So Jesse Chatman has gone to the Jets. Crap. I really like him and am sad that he won't take the field as a Dolphin in
the upcoming season. I do wish him the best of luck. (just not too much luck when he's playing against Miami!) :)
Lots of changes going on and many new faces joining the team. I can't wait to see what they and Tony and Tuna have in
store for us.
Tall Michelle and I are really excited about the upcoming NFL Draft and YES, we will be there and NO I won't be on vacation
like last year! Please let us know if you or any other Dolphins fans you know will be there.
Thank you to everyone who has be e-mailing us through the website and our MySpace page. We promise to reply very soon
and continue to update our website more frequently now that we are both in the country and work seems to be mellowing
out a bit.
GO DOLPHINS!

Check out the February issue of Glamour Magazine as the 2Michelles bring football into the world of fashion! We had such
a great time in London that we wanted to share it with as many people as possible, and the people at Glamour were nice enough
to let us do that. And we couldn't be prouder to wear our Dolphins gear in a high fashion magazine! We hope you get a chance
to check it out! (Sorry the images aren't very clear).

Freezing in Philly
Hello Dolfans! Please be sure to check out our video from our trip to Philly. It will be posted on Tuesday on
miamidolphins.com. Despite the freezing cold temperatures, it was a fun trip. Unfortunately, the team did not secure it's first win, but we
are hoping for a great game in Pittsburgh.
If you plan on attending that game, please e-mail us and let us know where you will be tailgating.
We also wanted to wish everyone a great Thanksgiving holiday! Safe travels and best wishes!
PS...To Devin, who reached out to us on e-mail: Thank you for the message, but we actually don't attend all of the games.
Just the ones on the road. Go Dolphins!
November 15th, 2007
Heading Into Philly
Hey Dolfans! Sorry that it's taken us awhile to update our website. It's been a crazy week with work and one of us being
out of town. Who's ready for a WIN?!?! We are! And we can't wait to head out to Philly this Sunday to see our Fins take on
those Eagles.
The Dolphins announced that John Beck would be starting at QB and we are eager to see what he can do. It's clear from
all of his interviews and from the news stories that not only has he been working hard, but he is also proud to be a member
of this team. It will be cool to see him take to the field.
Who else is braving those Eagles fans this weekend? Please send us an e-mail and let us know where you'll be.
We are looking forward to some friendly banter with our friends over at
EaglesVan.com. They're a great group, despite cheering for the wrong team! :)
Dolfans, we look to you to rally together and CHEER ON YOUR TEAM!!!
GO DOLPHINS!!!!!!
November 6th, 2007
Bye-Bye, Bye Week!!
Who's ready for some Dolphins football again?! We know we are! It was weird waking up on Sunday and not going
out to see our Fins play, but we hope that everyone rested up and is ready to rock this Sunday against the Bills!
We will be in New York for the game. Plans are still in the works, but as soon as we know for sure, we will
let you know.
In the meantime, we are very excited to share with you
PART II of our London video! Our time there
was so amazing and we had a lot of fun reliving it when we met up to edit together all of the clips. This is a must-see!
Please visit

HAPPY BIRTHDAY
TALL MICHELLE!!!!!!
October 31st, 2007
Happy Halloween!
It's been awhile since we updated the page and I'm sorry for that. Tall's had a broken computer for weeks and I'm
still in London for work. I leave tonight, though and bring with me so many amazing memories! This past weekend cannot be
summed up into words, but I will certainly try. First of all, our video is currently posted on
www.miamidolphins.com/2michelles. It's Part I of a two-part series. It covers our Saturday in London and a wonderful event hosted by our new friends, Dolfan
UK. It's a video you definitely want to add to your favorites! We would like to thank
Dolfan UK and
Dolfan Italia for welcoming us to their party. We had a great time!
On Sunday, Tall and I attended the NFL tailgate party, which was absolutely amazing! They converted the floor of the arena
into every football fan's perfect playground. They had tons of football-related games, music, face paint, autograph signings,
and much, much more!
Around 4:00pm, we walked into Wembley Stadium, and I must say that I was left completely speechless. The stadium is beautiful!
Our seats were amazing. Center endzone, lower level. I'm pretty sure Ted Ginn heard us yelling "GO TEDDY!!!" every time he
was on our side to return a kick. I definitely got a little emotional being there because it was history in the making. I
looked around the stadium and saw so many Dolphins fans, many of them who had never before seen an NFL game live, and you
could see in their faces how much it meant to them to be there. Another thought that occurred to me is that the Dolphins must
have tons of new fans now. Oftentimes people will become lifelong fans of a team, simply because it's the first team they
see live. I am sure that many of the people in the stands will cheer for the Fins for years to come and in 30 years they will
talk about the day they became a Dolphins fan.....the day the Dolphins played at Wembley.
Thank you, Miami Dolphins and the NFL for making this whole weekend so spectacular! Please be sure to check out Part II
of the London video next Tuesday on www.miamidolphins.com!
I've got to run and catch a plane back to NYC.

A Few Messages from The 2Michelles
Hello Dolfans! Thank you to everyone for all of your e-mails! It's always great to hear from fellow Dolphins fans. Despite
the team's record, we are all loyal fans and will always support our Fins!
We had a great time on Sunday with our friends, tailgating on Tall Michelle's roof. Thank you to everyone who
participated! It was awesome filling the Dolphins corner in our local bar for the game. You definitely don't want to miss
this video! Check it out on
www.miamidolphins.com/2michelles
On a personal note, and in the spirit of Breast Cancer Awareness Month, we would like to dedicate this video to Donna,
the mother of Short Michelle's best friend. Donna was one of the strongest and most positive women to ever live. She was also
a huge football fan and loved everything about the game. Unfortunately, our time with Donna was cut short when she lost her
fight with breast cancer.
In the post below this one, you saw what the Dolphins did to fight this terrible disease, and now we would like to do
our part by reaching out to you. If you would like to donate, please visit
www.concernfoundation.org (Donna's favorite charity).
Thank you!

Division Rivals Face Off!
Hey Dolfans! The last time we faced the Pats, we kicked their butts in a shut-out. We think it's time to repeat that
performance!
All the preparations have been made. We've got our very own rooftop tailgate going on and then we're heading over to
our sports bar which is normally crawling with Patriots fans. We can't wait to silence them with our army of Dolfans marching
in together!
Just a reminder that October is Breast Cancer Awareness month. The Dolphins are doing their part (
click here) and we ask that all of you do yours. There are plenty of opportunities to show your support, so let's all gather together
to win the fight against cancer!

Bring it on, Houston!!!
Wow, we blinked and it's already Friday and time to pack up for another trip to see our Dolphins! We know we promised
to write to you from the airport last weekend, but when we got there, the line for security was 10 miles long. Then we discovered
that our gate was ALL the way at the end. So after finally arriving at the gate, we had about 2 minutes before the plane left.
So much for updating the website. Then we got back to NYC, and were completely swamped at work, in large part due to the fact
that we missed 2 days for the Miami trip. But it was all worth it to be back home in Miami for those 4 days and meet
everyone who participated in Web Weekend IV. Truly a unique and unforgettable experience.
We are also one of the last to upload our photos, but we promise to get to those ASAP and post them here on the site.
In the meantime, if you want to see something truly hysterical, then click
HERE and visit our friend Igor's site
www.boredwithlosing.com and watch the video he has posted from our meeting with Coach Cam Cameron.
As we said, we're off to Houston tomorrow. Looking forward to meeting up with Doug and his
Phinatics crew. This sounds like it's going to be an awesome weekend and we have a lot in store for the new video, so make sure you
log onto
www.miamidolphins.com on Tuesday morning to check it out!
We'll see you in Houston and GO DOLPHINS!!!!!! It's time to put 0-4 behind us and get a BIG WIN this weekend!
October 1st, 2007
Picture Worth 1,000 Words
Hello, fellow depressed Dolphins fans. It's fitting that the rain is coming down in Miami right now, because the weather
coincides with the mood after yesterdays game.
We'll post more later while we wait at the airport for our flight back, but in the meantime, we just wanted to share
a photo with you from
The Miami Herald.com. Proof that we kept up hope until the bitter end.
Hopefully this new month will bring some new results for our Miami Dolphins.
Special thanks to all the fan sites who participated in Web Weekend. We'll have those photos up soon. Something to cheer
us up today. :)
