    I've always despised Miami so I can say that I don't feel sorry for that franchise. I think Tannehill is a punk and I always like to see franchises tank when they think all they need to do is throw money around to win.

    I take it that you do not like them for political reasons we cannot discuss due to forum rules?..


    Or is it just the mismanagement of a once proud franchise?

    I'm an 80's kid and was always on the Montana side and just never liked Marino. I don't like their colors. I don't like anything about them. They just have always seemed so "wimpy" to me. I mean their mascot is a dolphin. Plus I can't stand all the talk about the 72 fins being the best ever. I think they beat one team with a winning record in that season until the playoffs. It's not like they were beating world beaters out there but every year they wanna trot out and remind everybody about it. I've just never liked them. I know they're kind of an odd franchise to have hard feelings toward but I just do. The idiotic "protests" don't help much though. I think Zack Thomas might be the only fin I've ever liked.

    Last season the Falcons' Tevin Coleman slipped and got a concussion in the shower. It happens I guess.

    When you go undefeated and win the whole thing, thats an amazing accomplishment, I dont care who they played. I was so glad when NE lost to the Giants and spoiled their bid for an undefeated season, would have hated them being in that rarefied air.

    I liked the Fins when Shula was coaching and Marino, Duper and Clayton were playing, was fun to watch that team.

    One piece of irony is that when the gnats beat the pats in 07 the gnats had also only beat one team with a winning record during the regular season. The last two of their championships teams are the worst champions ever I think. It sickens me that a 9-7 team won the Super Bowl. I mean I guess I would take it if we did that but I don't know how much bragging I'd be doing about it. Just seems cheap and underwhelming to me.

    That makes no sense to me. You can only play the teams on the schedule and they won the games they had to. NE and their mighty record, didn't.

    Do you think less of our 2005 club because they were 7-5 heading into the last 4 games and needed to win out?

    No because winning 11 games is pretty good overall. There are teams that don't even get in to the playoffs at 9-7 but that Ringo Starr looking idiot at qb wins the Super Bowl at 9-7. Also in 05 Ben missed time or our record would have been better. The gnats got super lucky in 2011 when Gronk got hurt. That limited the pats greatly.

    You can discredit them all you want but their front 4 was nasty and thats why they won, kicked Bradys ass.

    That and Eli played lights out.

    I agree totally about their front 4. Tuck was unstoppable and probably should have been the MVP.

    Especially their 2007 team.


    That "18 and done" chant always warms my heart. Do not care what Brady says.. that loss will haunt him for some time.. even after his playing days.

    The guy slipped in the shower, it's not like he crashed his car while drunk. I don't see the problem...**** happens sometimes. I sprained my ankle by stepping on a baseball while running.
