The Level of Sucktitude
There is no classification for this level of sucktitude the Dolphins have sunk too. The best way to express how the Dolphins as a team and organization suck, is to get the opinions from die hard fans and players and put them into one fun filled post. So here we go…
Let’s get it started with a quote from the Morman himself who was pretty out of his element after the game…
“Crap’s going to happen and today crap happened,” said Beck, and that’s a direct, untouched quote from a Mormon who probably uses nothing stronger to voice his disgust.
The guy’s definitely understand the history they are looking at right now but would rather worry about themselves then their leader…
“I have no idea where this puts Cam,” veteran Miami defensive tackle Keith Traylor said. “I definitely care, but would I lose any sleep over any way it went? No, it’s a bad situation we’re all in right now.”
“To be honest, I’m not worried about his job security,” cornerback Will Allen said of Cameron. “I worry about my own job security.
Deadspin makes a nice comparison between Beck and Bonderman. Way to give us hope Leitch!!
The Dolphins definitively have the look of a team that will go winless. It’s kind of exciting to watch; we wonder if John Beck will be the NFL’s equivalent of Jeremy Bonderman, a guy who has a historically bad rookie season and matures into a decent player.
The Dude at FinsNation relays his thoughts rather eloquently…
In the end, it was just a full-bodied beat down to the tune of 40 damn points. During the 4th quarter, I almost expected the Jets players to jump into the stands to give us each a personal fist up the ass. Because, really, that’s pretty much all that was left for them to do at that point.
Matty over at the Phinsider has all but given up on a win this season…
Totally defeated. That’s likely how the 2007 Miami Dolphins will be defined in history. Considering the events of today’s game, how could anyone possibly think this team could win a football game in 2007? They lost to arguably the 2nd worst football team in the NFL today by 27 points in their own damn stadium. How in the world can they expect to beat any of the teams remaining on their schedule? I don’t know. Maybe once I get over this loss later in the week, I’ll be able to find some hope for a win this year. But right now, I just don’t see it.
Cam Cameron thought his team was ready or perhaps he is just over his head…
The Dolphins had every chance to rob the Jets of a celebration. The Dolphins were at home. And coach Cameron said his team was ”ready to play,” which would suggest the Dolphins should have opened this game riding a wave of emotion so large it should have made the Bonzai Pipeline envious. But as has been one of his failings this year, Cameron misread his team. Miami was, instead, unprepared, unmotivated and unemotional. The Jets came out in their throwback uniforms. The Dolphins came out and threw up on their uniforms.
The Jets knew what they were in for as they heard Dolphins players whooping it up that “this is their week to win one” and Chris Baker was having none of it…
‘We started hearing, `Oh, this is their chance to win, this is their chance.’ We wanted to come out and show them that this isn’t the game that they’re going to win,” Jets tight end Chris Baker said. “That’s how we went about it throughout the week.”
Jason Taylor kept up his usual blahzay attitude in the locker room post game…
”They [stink] too,” Miami defensive end Jason Taylor grumbled after this thorough 40-13 whipping. “But they beat us. They go home happy.”
Rick over on SOTP points out that this morning, all was good in the land of the Dolphin fan. He also got some great pictures from the game…
I don’t think I can express my feelings any better than the above quotes. Sitting on my couch yesterday shoving Annie’s chicken wings into my mouth I couldn’t help but wonder what the state of South Florida sports is coming too. You can smell the medicrity coming out of South Florida and it’s not just the Dolphins winless funk or the smell of my buddy over on the other couch. My buddy said to me after yesterday’s loss, do you think they will put something in Dolphin Stadium signifying “The Defeated Season”. I said yes they should, and put it right under the urinals in the 400 section.
I’m really lost on what to do with this team. Everyone says we have major holes to fill and that it will take a few years before we even become somewhat contenders. But is that really the case? Haven’t we had holes in the past that needed to be plugged to be contenders, only to plug them up and take a step backwards?
It’s becoming apparent to me that the owners of South Florida sports teams are simply businessmen and do not care about building tradition or a winning product. You can preach to me night and day about Wayne Huizenga’s dedication to the Dolphins and the love he has for his team. But ask yourself, is it his team he loves or that green stack of money they bring in everyday for him? Is there any wonder why a man like Jeffrey Loria, who to you and me is very wealthy, would rather buy a new painting and donate money to Yale University before investing in his number one business venture, The Florida Marlins. No surprise ESPN ranks him in their top 10 greediest owners.
Who’s to tell Wayne he is fired? Who is doing the evaluation of the owner? Do we fire the coach and start all over like we always do? The culture down here is pathetic. Until these things are resolved, the Phins ain’t going nowhere.
