Reams of notes, quotes, anecdotes from Miami Dolphins week of preparation

The Miami Dolphins practiced indoors on Thursday. That seems strange because they open the regular season at Hard Rock Stadium on Sunday. And it will be about 1,083,294 degrees on the field with 4,395,287 percent humidity.

In other words it will be hot.

And the Dolphins practice bubble is about a comfortable 70 degrees so that’s not a way to get used to the game conditions.

So why are the Dolphins working inside when this year they asked the NFL to schedule early-season games at home at 1 p.m., when it’s hottest, so they could take advantage of their hot weather advantage?
