It's been Miami ever since.

If you take away a six-touchdown outing against defenseless Baylor, Tannehill’s numbers (3,744 YDS, 29 TD, 15 INT) are very average. What’s more disconcerting is the fact Tannehill consistently struggled in big games and showed atrocious decision-making that led to 15 interceptions in the defense-optional Big 12.

Please remove the, "How are you feeling about the Dolphins?" Poll!

Or make it Phinsider voting only.

I want no other fan base in my life.

The Phinsider Tunaflipper’s Muck Draft, Part Two: The Rosster Plan

Stephen Ross is no dummy (choose your adjective), he does not invest for immediate results. Fools do that -see Snyder, xx, xx. He’s made his cash cow over the long term. As I (properly) fanshotted previously, this muck draft is about the future. The devil is in the details but the concept remains the same. Trade back. all the way to next year (and beyond?). As an aside, fan patience doesn’t matter, here. Not in the Rosster Plan. Btw, Ross works out of New York. Do you really think he understands impatience and attitude? Yes, I think you do.

Announcing the Rosster Plan:

"I've told both guys that. We're very clear about that."

Umm, Coach Joe? Don't we have three qb's?

The Phinsider A Tribute to a Fanshot

MainePhinFan's "Henne to the Jet's," Fanshot deserves clarification. May this be it.

Seriously!

Do you work for the Jets? Do you speculate in Dolphin futures? Are you a commie? Did someone hit you in the face with a football when you were a puppy?

Are you normal?

"He became the first non-import player to record over 1000 yards rushing in a season since Sean Millington accomplished the same feat in 2000. Messam was named the Outstanding Canadian in the months of July and October and was named the CFL's Most Outstanding Canadian at the end of the regular season"

Sure there's a bit of AP copy/paste.
But with good writing, this Canuck words it well.

Read the whole article, if you will.

Seriously? You have got to be kidding!

The biggest single event money maker in an 8 billion dollar business?!

I suppose Roger & co need to replace that $1 a year salary they so valiantly gave up.

Just a Thought on Fines

Where does all that fine money the NFL takes from players & coaches go? Charites? Bonuses? Ret. player fund? Are they tax deductable?

Love him or hate him, this doesn't bode well.
Anyone have an update?

Is Tunaflipper a FF Marshall Homer?

Here I go again. Starting Marshall expecting him the break out. I'm first in my Div and I got no idea what receiver to start. B Banks and his p/k return potential? Laurent Robinson against the Phins? Nate Moore who seems to be surging?

San Diego ran four plays in the fourth quarter — four! — and two of those were intercepted passes.

Isn't Rivers one a them, ah, franchise QB's?
He's got 17 pics, so far.

Next week he gets to see some of Denver's Teboics, first hand. You know, the face of a new franchiser...

The Phinsider For You Losers for Luck; Just Go with Panning for Manning

So after a win. An oh so needed, glorious victory, the Luck majority comes out and is sad. Some thinly try to they’re glad and it shows as there’s always a “but” driving home the true negativity. The early to mid-season fantasy that the whole, wide world turns rosy when the walk on water savior becomes ours is now lost to us. The Luck crowd is disappointed we won. It’s dripping all over the posts and staining the happiness that many are trying to share. Yet still more of the knee-jerk fantasists advocate losing for the “seconds” in the QB draft. 

What a loser attitude.

Bush League Fantasy Football Question.

Sooo, I gotta start Michael Bush vs Den. After that, Tolbert's (SD) starting vs GB. His stats don't fill me up with optimism but my choices are Kendall Hunter (SF) who is not starting vs Was. He's behind Gore. And then I have Thomas vs KC who (obviously) isn't starting. And pretty much everyone has some form of hamstring issue.

Well, I'm not in a "bush league," it's just that my roster is....

"Every football equation tells you to go for two in that situation."

http://www.miamiherald.com/2011/10/23/2468945/miami-dolphins-pass-rush-comes.html

That's just it Tony.
Football is more than a numbers game. Who cares how many snaps a player took in practice. Who cares if a player fits your metric. Quit playing by numbers!

Ya gotta have heart.
And that's not measured in numbers.

The Phinsider Suck for Luck is GREAT for the Kids!

So as the suck for luck mob gets bigger and bigger has anyone given any thought about the message it sends to kids? I read a post from one here who was firmly sold on the idea. He’s 16 years old! A freakin’ kid who’s decision making process is nowhere near matured. What’s the upside the tots stepping into pop warner? This is the worst kind of talk to kid who’s being taught honor, to play hard, fight through adversity, abnd respect the game. They don’t understand the “adult” rationale being spewed out. What they hear? Don’t worry little Johnny you can be bad and you’ll get rewarded later. It’s okay not to try. 

Hell, even pro players haven’t yet matured yet and grown adults are encouraging them to underperform? That’s what you’re doing. Don’t sugarcoat it. You (and all those other basement team fans) want your team to underperform and that message will absolutely trickle down to children. That’s being a responsible adult. Tell you what, would you encourage your kid to act under this line of thought? If you would you should question your values as a dad. I sure do.
