It’s that time of week again where I post photos of my secret world of Miami Dolphins fandom.  I know how much you love looking at a bunch of random dudes dressed up in aqua and orange and yelling at a TV screen. It’s pretty exciting.  This was a good week though. First of all we won, which of course is the only thing that really matters.  But it was also a good week because my parents were in town and they got to comes see the little community I built. A few years ago there was no place for Dolphins fans to go but with the help of my friend Michelle we started this DolfansNYC club and we have a Facebook group with over 600 members and we pack the bar Third and Long every week. As a group we bought over 60 tickets to the Dolphins game against the New York Jets.  An we also raise money for charity and have raised over $1000 after only 6 weeks of the season.

In short it is one of the more successful things I do in my life and one of the only positive things (in the Puritanical sense of the word) that I do with my life. My parents know about the naked girls and the party pictures, and they are proud that I have my own business, but they don’t exactly love everything about it. I am just glad I could show them the Dolphins club and give them something they can feel good about feeling proud about if that makes any sense.  I mean my dad raised me on football and that is one of the few things he and I really share still and some of my earliest football memories were sitting on the couch next to my mother’s father watching the Redskins.  My dad and I both played high school football and my mom still calls me every time the Dolphins win.  It just means a lot to me to share this with them.

Anyway, I know you don’t really care about these photos, but I figure it shows you another side of my life you might not see all the time. So click here to check out the photos from last Sunday. I shot them all with my new point and shoot Leica C-Lux 3. Since the quality of these pictures aren’t super important it’s a lot easier just to bring a tiny camera and call it a day.
