Dolphins, Pats, Bears still thrill as football heads for Wembley

(Newser) - Ask random British sports fans to name their favorite NFL team, and they'll probably say the Bears, the Patriots or maybe even the Dolphins.

Miami releases QB from contract after short, injury-plagued stay

(Newser) - Miami severed ties with QB Daunte Culpepper yesterday, terminating his contract without arbitration after a decidedly unspectacular year with the Dolphins.
