Memories of The Dolphins on Thanksgiving

“Some of the games have been infamous for other reasons. In 1993, the Cowboys led the Dolphins 14-13 with just seconds remaining in a snow-filled Texas Stadium. Miami's Pete Stoyanovich attempted a game winning 40 yard field goal that was blocked by the Cowboys' Jimmie Jones. Dick Enberg of NBC proclaimed "The Cowboys will win." However, Cowboys defensive lineman Leon Lett chased the ball and touched it, giving the Dolphins a chance to regain possession, and then kick a much shorter field goal to take an improbable 16-14 victory.”

So from me and mine to you and yours, have a very safe and Happy Thanksgiving! To our Troops reading this; Thank You for everything and have a safe time and enjoy the holiday! For everyone that is travelling on this day, be very careful as you see much “road rage” and traffic everywhere!

Your Fellow Dolphin Fan,

Emmett L. Dove
