My apologies if this has been posted elsewhere:

Gado played in Miami's debacle against the Jets yesterday, rushing for two yards on two carries.

I thought the Dolphins cut him.

2 yards on 2 carries, that's better than Laurence Moroney!

One would think that would secure a roster spot for him. It seems that when he has gotten a chance to play Samkon has been productive, but he shoots himself in the foot by fumbling and ends up on the bench or is cut.

As a Dolphin fan and an LU student the only thing making me happy about the season the Dolphins are having is seeing Sam get another shot...

I do think if given the right chance (Green Bay is a great example) he can make something of himself in this league and in the process help fill a void for any NFL team looking for a consistent back

12 carries, 52 yards, 2 TD's (4.3 avg); 2 catches, 41 yards... nice job SG.

It was greating see Samkon's name on the ESPN bottomline again. Great game for him! And HMO, I don't think Jim Brown could bring the fins a win right now.

He looked good. He actually looks like he lost some weight. It's odd to see him in 27. Great day for Sam!

If there was one beam of light for the Dolphins that cut through the gray skies over Ralph Wilson Stadium during yesterday's 38-17 loss to the Buffalo Bills, it emanated from the legs of the running back wearing the number 27 who went undrafted out of college....

Who's e-mailing the guy saying we're Liberty University not Liberty College?

I noticed that too and got quite upset. I'll email him along with anyone else who wants to.

We've not been Liberty [Baptist] College since 1985. Journalists need to do their research.

I'm surprised they didn't refer to us as "tiny Liberty College," like others have done.
