The Facts:
Despite threats of a player boycott stemming from concerns about Hurricane Frances, the Dolphins are still scheduled to play tonight's exhibition-season finale at New Orleans. It is believed that a sizeable group of players may not arrive this morning for the team's charter flight to New Orleans, which may force the NFL to cancel the game.

Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
The Dolphins' organization strongly pushed to call off the contest Thursday but was rebuffed by the league office. " The first concern is the families and what's going on with them," Dolphins coach Dave Wannstedt said Thursday night while taking a break from installing hurricane shutters at his house. "We'll see. Who knows what's going to happen at the airport or with the airplane? Right now, we're trying to be as optimistic as we can."
