So what exactly should Dolphins fans expect this season?Dave and Bo discuss Malik Willis, the addition of former Syracuse quarterback Kyle McCord, Miami's young receiving corps, the massive role this rookie class could play and why this season may need to be judged by something other than wins and losses.Then Dave poses the question nobody wants to hear: Is Miami more likely to win four games…or none at all?But this is Nothing to Hyde, so naturally the conversation doesn't stay on football.Dave celebrates Warren Buffett's 96th birthday with an incredible story about calling Berkshire Hathaway and unexpectedly finding himself talking to Buffett for 30 minutes. That sends Bo down memory lane with stories involving Buffett, Don Shula, Edwin Pope—and his daughter having absolutely no idea she was standing near one of the richest men in the world.And finally, the guys tackle perhaps the most important Dolphins debate of all:Who has the greatest mustache in Miami Dolphins history?Jacob Rodriguez? Larry Csonka? Manny Fernandez?
