We've made it. The 2012 NFL season is finally here. Training camps are officially starting today, with the Arizona Cardinals the first team to get under way. Throughout the rest of this week, all the teams across the NFL landscape will launch into their trainup for the resular season, including our Miami Dolphins.
The Dolphins report to trainning camp on Thursday, with the first practice on Friday, which will be open to the public. The team will hold a total of fifteen, open to the public practices this year, including one at Sun Life Stadium. Of course, this year, fans will also have the opportunity to watch the Dolphins on HBO's Hard Knocks. The show, produced by HBO and NFL Films, will follow the Dolphins throughout training camp, with unlimited access to the team, the players, and the executives. The show will air everything from practcies through to players being released by the Dolphins.
The season premiere will debut on August 7 on HBO.
Congratulations on making it through the offseason and, finally, into the 2012 NFL season. It's just a few more days wait until the Dolphins are back on the field, and we can finally discuss actual football things again. It's about time!
