Q: Hey greg, how are the marlins gonna look for next year? wat improvements will be made? You got any inside scoop?

Answered 11/04/09 14:00:00 by Greg Cote

A: Jerry, so much isn't yet known, such as whether they trade Uggla. My biggest guarantee at this early date is that Gaby Sanchez will be ready and have a huge rookie year.

Q: hey greg, do u have a vote for the rookie of the year? if yes, then i hope you pick chris coghlan!

Q: What do you think about Howard Stern?

Answered 11/04/09 13:56:29 by Greg Cote

A: Hector, I listened to him a lot more before he went satellite. I like his show. Think he's a real talent.

Q: What are your feelings on Miami's chances against the Pat's

Answered 11/04/09 13:55:07 by Greg Cote

A: Jim, tomorrow is when I consider and research all my NFL picks so I'm not real sure right now. Initially I don't much like Miami winning outright, although the point spread sure feels a bit big to me.

Q: tell me a good don shula story (not the one about me)

Answered 11/04/09 13:52:50 by Greg Cote

A: Shula ends a blistering practice at the old Biscayne College, unhappily melting facemasks, chewing out players, screaming. Minutes later his daughter walks up with a grandkid. Shula lifts the toddler, who dangles from his arm and squeals with joy. "Hang time!" shouts the coach with a huge grin.

Submitted by Will Ackley from Plantation, FL

Q: the UPSETBIRD! Greg, why do u think it is that the wildcat works so well? i mean the jets figured it out and they shut the dolphins down with it....cant every team just figure it out?

Answered 11/04/09 13:50:31 by Greg Cote

A: Will, that's a great question I've never heard answered to my satisfaction. Not even Sparano or players on either side can explain why it works, or sometimes doesn't. I could bluff a bull---- answer, but the truth is I'm not sure!

Q: are you going to get the new "get yer ya ya's out" remastered box set?

Answered 11/04/09 13:49:17 by Greg Cote

A: Mick et al, sorry guys but no. Like the Stones. Own a bunch of the music. Have maybe a dozen RS songs on my iPod. But not enough of a fanatic to do the boxed-set schtick.

Q: is dan marino a douche?

Answered 11/04/09 13:47:43 by Greg Cote

A: Always wondered, no. Was never a great quote. Could be a bit moody. But a good guy, I'd say.

Q: do you use viagra?

Answered 11/04/09 13:46:44 by Greg Cote

A: Hector, no, although I HAVE written several columns that must seem to the reader like they last longer than four hours to get through.

Q: could tom brady make our receivers looks good?

Answered 11/04/09 13:45:27 by Greg Cote

A: Steve, better, yes. Here's another question: Could the Dolphins receivers make Brady look bad?

Submitted by Oliver Tisher from Miami Dade

Q: hey greg, how are you liking the heat this year? any high hopes?

Answered 11/04/09 13:44:31 by Greg Cote

A: Oliver, I haven't changed my mind on the Heat. Think this will be a slightly above .500, around-6th-seed season unlikely to get past the first round of the playoffs. Wade gives Miami a chance every night, but not a great team in the overall.

Q: do you think oswald acted alone or is it a conspiracy?

Answered 11/04/09 13:42:17 by Greg Cote

A: J-Hoov, I think the real killer was the librarian at the school-book depository.

Submitted by bob griese's ta from wrong country

Q: why is it such a big deal that patrick turner doesnt play special teams?

Answered 11/04/09 13:41:10 by Greg Cote

A: Bob, tough week huh? It's a big deal because Tony Sparano loves multi-taskers. That's why players like Patrick Cobbs (before his injury) are such teacher's pets. A rookie who isn't quite cutting it as a receiver AND doesn't play special teams can get buried on this team.
