Why are all the comments suggesting that Miami is doing some rarely seen, classy act? If you spend 10+yrs with a Franchise and leave that team. They often will give you the 1 day contract/press conference so you can cry and hold your kid on your lap.
You dont keep up with the dolphins very much do you? I have always been a fan but they have really treated some of there long time players pretty poorly as of late

Great player, he must be pissed at his brother in-law though, I would love to be a fly on the wall at one of their family get together’s, Zach hated us more than Jason.

Probably one of the greatest stories in the NFL and one of the best MLB to ever play! Hopefully he’ll be inducted into the ring of honor this season!

Zach, one of my favorite Dolphins of all time… Can’t wait to see your name in the ring of honor and hopefully the Hall real soon

Great that Zach retires as a Dolphin (refused to go the the Patriots). Now if they could just do the something positive with Jake Scott!

Zach Thomas was one of the most underrated players in history. It was a pleasure watching him for all of those years in aqua and orange. I wish more players in todays game had his heart and drive. ZT will forever be one of the greatest LB’s in Dolphin Franchise. Thanks 54

wow, color me surprised that the dolphins decided to take care of a franchise legend.
this regime isn’t exactly “friendly” to the veterans of the club.
Hope it’s the retirement announcement, and if it is, congrats to Zach!

The Dolphins are announcing Zack’s retiring a Dallas Cowboy.

One of Jimmy Johnsons best finds…a 5th round steal!! Guy played his balls off every game, one of the most underrated LBs…take him over that overated LB in chicago.

Any day of the week. The only LB better than Zach during his playing days was Ray Lewis, and the stats aren’t too much different,

Nope, they’re announcing their engagement. More than a 50% chance it ends in divorce.

Finally……………….He has always been a Dolphin. Yea Zach!!! The Tuna is human after all….

Great news, because Zach Thomas is one of the most underrated, selfless, overachieving bad a$$es to play MLB in a 4-3 defense. If you disagree, go check his measurables (too short, too small, too slow) then check his production. Reality will slap you in the face.
Speaking of which, irishsamurai (wtf?) and Mr. Ethen can kindly help themselves to a heaping bowl of my genitals. Go back to your Jets blog and chat about the second consecutive OTA Lombardi trophy.

Jesus is my savior would love this type of open generosity and thanks giving displayed by the Miami franchise.
Also the commitment showed by Zach Thomas.
but it seems that he only wants to make negative comments. which is not the way of the lord.

About time….I would love it if they also were to announce that he is hired as an assistant LB coach.

With all the head shots Zach has taken, the “joint announcement” involves the Dolphin rep saying the words slowly with Thomas repeating them to the crowd.

It is about time. Must have felt the heat by multiple people. The Jason Taylor situation didn’t help too.

Nice. Zach deserves as much, as will JT. It’s good to see Parcells/Ireland trying to do something for the fanbase other than just the ins and outs of football operations.
