Miami Dolphins will be on HBO's 'Hard Knocks'
 

Joe Philbin arrived at his Tuesday press conference with some fun news: The Miami Dolphins will participate in HBO's "Hard Knocks" series this year.

The news is welcome for longtime fans of the show, like yours truly. There simply isn't a better "reality" show on television, and the Dolphins make a fun choice after some other high-profile teams turned down the show.

The rookie head coach said he was excited to reveal the new direction of the organization on the show, according to NFL Network's Jeff Darlington, who was on the scene in Davie, Fla.

Philbin called it a "football decision," but it's hard not to see the move as a marketing decision. Owner Stephen Ross has worked hard to sell his team to the Miami market through celebrity minority owners and other avenues. Now he'll turn his players into television stars, and we couldn't be happier that he did.

I look forward to watching this. Should make for som great TV.

I've always liked the Dolphins. Danno was one of my favorite players ever.

Plus, I'd love to see them beat the hell out of the Pats.

Ok now i'll watch ! Everyone loves a train wreck !

Let's see ... nope, I can't name a Dolphins player ... somebody gimme a hint?

Kidding, but really. Ryan Tannehill? Davone Bess? Sounds riveting ...

The story line will be Reggie Bush stealing Tannehill's woman. Calling it now...

I wasn't aware Tannehill was nailing a Kardashian ...

I thought HBO couldn't go worse than the Jaguars.....I was wrong....

Tannehill has a hotty for a wifey

Now THAT would be worth watching.

See TRAIN wreck !
