Miami Dolphins in the Bubble

Sunday, March 8th, 2009
Rick Grantham asked:


The Miami Dolphins are lucky enough to have their very own training facility. This is just right for a team who was able to get a perfect season in 1972. The training facility for the Dolphins is located in the main campus of the Nova Southeastern University in Davie, Florida. It is also the headquarter location for the Dolphins and is also used for a multitude of other events.

This state-of-the-art training facility features an exquisite architecture which reminds people of classic athletic facilities sporting the same design. The facility boasts of bowing trusses and has on of the largest weight rooms in the NFL. It also has training and locker rooms, whirlpools, therapy swimming pools, cold plunge pool, administrative offices, and of course, a practice field. Further, it has a bleacher building which accommodates 2000 visitors. The facility has an area of 5,200 square meters and is also used by other pro football teams.

An indoor training field known as “The Bubble” is also one venue of training for the Miami Dolphins. It is a 8,790 square meter indoor facility that covers the 2.2 acres on the west side of the main building. This indoor facility is an air-supported structure. The said structure was made and installed by the Air Structures American Technologies Incorporated but was constructed by the Stiles Construction. The football field inside the training facility is made out of synthetic turf composed of 75% rubber and 25% sand thereby providing a firm-playing surface. The markings found on the Dolphin Stadium game-day field is also replicated in this indoor facility. Loud crowd noise can also be simulated inside the bubble.

Before having this training facility, the Miami Dolphins trained at the St. Thomas University until 1993. Then in 2006, the indoor air-conditioned training field was added, which made the people of Miami, particularly the Dolphins proud of having such a useful and one-of-a-kind venue. The team admits that having such a training facility helps the team to feel as if they are playing in an actual field since the facility closely simulates actual games. Plus, an even better advantage is that the team can continue to practice even when the storms roll in.

The Bubble uses an extremely light yet sturdy fabric. It is inflated via the fans in the HVAC units and is controlled by an integrated control system. It was also designed to withstand the forces of hurricane winds up to category three. To achieve this, the internal air pressure is increased to stiffen the structure to withstand the external wind loads. The Dolphins do not really own the Bubble, it was just leased out to them by Jerome Harriot.

The Miami Dolphins training facility was the venue used by the 2006 AFC Champions, the Indianapolis Colts, to prepare for the Super Bowl XLI. For a team who has really excellent training grounds, the Miami Dolphins have a lot of pressure in their performance. People expect a lot from a team who is given the best of everything and so far, the Dolphins has been giving an average performance.

Pittsburg Steelers Tickets - Football of Champions

Wednesday, March 4th, 2009
Al Terry asked:


There is a distinct difference between Pittsburg Steelers tickets and tickets to an ordinary football game. The Steelers have long established themselves as a cut above the rest and football lovers and enthusiasts can be assured of a great game of football whenever they are on the field.

The Pittsburg Steelers are affiliated with the AFC North and the American Football Conference in the National Football League. They have often been referred to as one of the most successful teams in the NFL, winning five Super Bowls, six Conference championships and seventeen Division titles.

A Tradition Of Excellence

The Pittsburg Steelers founded in 1933, are one of the oldest teams in the NFL. During their initial years, the team merged with two other franchises in order to field a team. In 1944, the merged with the Chicago Cardinals and were known as the Card-Pitt, a team that has the infamous distinction of being the only team in franchise history to never have a winning game.

That would all change as time went on. In 1974, the Steelers had one of the best drafts on the NFL and Pittsburg Steelers tickets were a hot commodity. The team would become the first ever team in the NFL to win four Super Bowl titles in just six year. The luck of the team did dip however in the eighties, when the dream run of that dream draft finally ran out. However, the Steelers managed to pull themselves together enough to win the Super Bowl yet again in 2005. The Steelers currently have an overall record of 333-217.

Pop Culture And Beyond

The popularity of Pittsburg Steelers tickets is a simple reflection of the fact that the appeal of the Steelers extends far beyond the football field. The Steelers have appeared in a number of movies and television shows, with a 2002 independent movie showcasing the life of a Steelers fan. A number of Pittsburg Steelers tickets are picked up by high profile celebrities like Snoop Dogg, Adam Sandler, Michael Keaton and Seth Meyers.

The Steelers also have a number of memorable traditions. Perhaps the most striking is that of the Terrible Towel. This was a gimmick started by a broadcaster, who urged Steelers fans to wave gold dish towels during a game against the Baltimore Colts. The Steelers went on to win the game and the Terrible Towel craze caught on, with Steelers fans waving them at every game.

Today, what started as a gimmick has evolved into a charitable institution. Since 1996, the proceeds from the sales of these towels go to a school for the mentally disabled in Pittsburgh. The Steelers were also the first professional team to have a cheerleading squad, which they began in 1961. Today however, the team does not have a cheerleading squad as the current management feels they are pointless and can block the view of the actual game.

Steelers football is a great way to enjoy football at its very best, so get your Pittsburg Steelers tickets when they come to a city near you. You can order those tickets online as well, after ensuring that you are dealing with an authorized ticket vendor.
