Seeing as you are a long time Dolphins fan and the President, Treasurer and Enforcer of the Richard Lumber Fan Club, I figured you'd like this short documentary on the 1966 Dolphins. THe best part is when Richard Lumber purposely threw an interception to Fred "The Hammer" Williamson so the Fins could get revenge on him for breaking Howard Twilly's jaw.As promised, Jeff, the one and only Richard Lumber...

Signed no less, in person probably in 1966.
The 25 cent stadium tax is the deal breaker for me even if it is included in the outrageous $3.50 ticket price! NO TAXATION WITHOUT REPRESNTATION!.....or something like that.
What a great video.Oh Shoot! You cn watch it on Youtube. It;ll be worth your time rlschles if you have not seen this play,
Dorsett?What a great video.
I had season tickets - the club had a thing called the Huddle Club for kids - it was something like 10 games for 10 bucks, seats in the endzone - me and all of my friends went, chaperoned by one of the dads. Howard Twilley was our star receiver. John Stofa was the qb interviewed, #15. Then he lost his job the next year to Bob Griese, drafted number 2 out of Purdue. Can you guess who went number 1 that year?
Was it O.J.? Or was he the next year? I think the #1 pick in 67 was Bubba Smith from my alma mater.What a great video.

I think the brown haired guy was Billy Neighbors, a solid O-Line guy for several years. Norm Evans was there. Joe Auer. And John Stofa.Was it O.J.? Or was he the next year? I think the #1 pick in 67 was Bubba Smith from my alma mater.
I thought you'd like that video. Hard to believe Miami was considered an outpost back then instead of a destination like today thanks to the marvels of air conditioning. I was having trouble IDing some of those guys. Twilly was easy to pcik out beause of that snaggle tooth. And Wahoo McDaniel wa easy for obvious reasons. I'm not sure who the young guy with the good hair was. I think it was Norm Evans when looking at some of his mid 70s cards,
That Richard Lumber/Fred Williamson play is just the best. I can't help laughing every time I see it and I'v watched that A LOT!! LMAO!!
Boy, Neighbors and Evans are really similar looking after looking at their cards. Stofa was the guy with the thin face I believe. THe only card ever made of him was a 69 Topps with him in a Dolphins uniform with helmet on a Bengals card. You could see he had a thin face even through the facemask.I think the brown haired guy was Billy Neighbors, a solid O-Line guy for several years. Norm Evans was there. Joe Auer. And John Stofa.
#1 was Bubba.
Griese was actually #4, not #2. The guy picked just before Griese was Steve Spurrier, who beat Griese out for the Heisman, but never amounted to much of an NFL QB.
