How Awful Is This!

The storied franchise of the Miami Dolphins are setting a new high (or low) in utter futility. In a streak that would make the New York Mets of the early 1960s blush, the Dolphins have rattled off a breathtaking streak of twelve straight losses. Today, they laid an egg against the nearly as futile New York Jets. In a year that is seeing the great 1972 Dolphins unbeaten record challenged by the New England Patriots, the current edition of the Dolphins is chasing the record for futility. How embarrassing? The Redskins called Joe Gibbs out of retirement. Perhaps the Dolphins should call Don Shula, but then he probably would not want to be associated with such a pitiful thing.

By the way, I think the NFL is going investigate. The Dolphins are claiming to be pro football team. That is suspect. Perhaps the NFL will force the Dolphins to play in some other league, but then no other league would have them.

The Lions were 24-72 this decade going into this season. One bad season is awful. How about 43 years and 1 playoff win.

I am not whining. I am not a Dolphins. I actually think it is kind of funny. The fans in Miami were ready to run Nick Sabine out of town a year ago. He obliged and left. I guess it wasn't the coach's fault.
