The Miami Dolphins have made another roster move to reduce the size of the team to the regular season limit by this afternoon’s deadline. The latest move is the release of quarterback Zac Dysert:

The release is not really a surprise, with Miami possibly only keeping Ryan Tannehill and Matt Moore at quarterback on the roster. Currently, rookie Brandon Doughty is still on the team as well, though he could be considered for a practice squad position if Miami thinks he can make it through waivers without being claimed.

ESSAY OF THE PRIDE OF ADA - BELOW.

Its given name sounds like a phone number: Pennsylvania 477779.

It’s 75 years old and after a half-century of hard - all out-of-doors - work, it found Ada – or, Ada found it.

It sadly out-lived its usefulness. It became obsolete, and simply turned into a reminder of the good old days of railroading. But, boy, were those good days.

Pennsylvania Railroad caboose 477779 retired in Ada in 1989. Several historic-mind and railroad-loving residents had a vision for Ada’s also retired and proud passenger station – that also avoided demolition.
