Does anyone know what game this was? I believe it was on the heels of a hurricane in Miami? I also think it was played on a Thursday. The field was just soaked, and you could barely see the players.

I wanted to find a youtube clip of this, but have been unsuccessful so far.

I believe the game you're thinking of happened in 1998. It was an ugly game that the Dolphins won 21-0.

Has it been that long already? I don't think I was following football that closely back then...

I think I remember a game when the Dolphins were wearing all Orange vs the Steelers, and it was horrible weather as well.

Edit: I'm joking. It does reference the game that MikeVic is talking about, though.

I'm pretty sure it's the 1998 game, because that's the same year that a hurricane postponed the Miami-UCLA game, which was rescheduled for later in the year, allowing Miami to play spoiler with a 49-45 win.

2004. But I also remember the insane game that Larry is referencing from a longer time ago.

My bad. I guess I blocked that one from memory, as I did with most of Wannstedt's tenure.

Miami also played a preseason game in Pittsburgh in 2005 that got delayed for lightning.

Miami and Pittsburgh should never be allowed to play against each other again!

Just thinking now...this game is going to look GREAT--in flere's WIP thread.

Dola, nevermind it just occured to me to look in the memberlist and get it from his signature.
