I'm tired of all the "I didn't hear anything from Patriots fans before they got good" BS. Why? Because people who root for teams that aren't doing well tend to do the smart thing and keep their mouths shut. Seriously, what do the Dolphins have to brag about this season? But I'd put money on it that if they do well in the future all the quiet fans would get loud again. And if the Pats do bad in future seasons, I'll bet that Pats fans get quiet again. You shouldn't run your mouth if you have nothing to back it up with, right?

Anyone agree with me?

Yes, I am saying that people watched the Patriots before they got good. I'm not a native New Englander, but all of my Patriot fan friends (and my husband) have been fans forever. (If you don't believe this, travel up to New Hampshire sometime. I have yet to meet anyone from that state who has ever rooted for any other team besides the Pats)

And yes, the Dolphins do suck. They suck so bad, I root for them to lose. It's great fun.

OMG!!!
Will people SHUT UP about the '72 Dolphins already? The ENTIRE season, including the playoffs was included in that, so for a team to do that now is much harder.

And Dan Marino isn't the QB anymore, so quit throwing his name out there like he's still playing.

You don't realize how much of a Dolphin fan I am. I'm your true die hard fan, I love them sooo much, my favorite team of all time. I wear that jersey with pride, dignity, honor, respect, and loyalty. I am your true fan. I've been a fan my whole life, and you say I keep my mouth shut? I brag about my team so much, yes they suck absolute balls right now, but do you know what, I brag on my team all the time. Why? Heck, Dan Marino is one reason, one of the best QB's of all time. Here are ALL of his records, that Bret Favre or Tom Brady WON'T beat.

300 TD passes in Fewest Amount of Games to Start Career: 157 ( 9/4/94 vs. N.E.)

That's one reason. Also, the '72 Dolphins went 16-0, and won the Super Bowl to go undefeated, and has been the only team to do that ever, and that Pats are trying to do the same thing, okay go for it, if they get it, then the AFC East has some very great teams coming out of that division. I hate the Patriots, but I'll give them my respects if they ever do go undefeated. I don't want them too, but if they do, then so be it. If they wanted to cheat to do so, go ahead, but we know who the real champs were. Miami has only two Super Bowl wins out of the five Super Bowl appearances, but I've been a fan of this team since I was born in '89, and will be behind this team before I die, so no, my mouth is wide open and proud to be a Dolphin.

I agree, the Pats don't look dominant at all in the post-season. The '85 bears went through the post season 90-10 with an incredible defense. The '89 49ers went 41-13, 30-3 and 55-10 for a whopping 126-26. Now that is dominance! The games were all basically over by the first or 2nd quarters in each game. The 2007 Patriots aren't even close. Going undefeated is a nice record, but that really depends on the competition of the league that year and some luck. Remember the '84 niners went 18-1 and if it weren't for a bogus pass interference call in the game they lost (see the YouTube replays and you'll agree), they would have been undefeated. Bad luck that season. And even if they had gone undefeated, the '89 niners were better, more dominant. So being undefeated doesn't mean your the best team ever. Sorry, 19-0 does NOT say it all. How can you call them the greatest ever and only expect them to win 38-31 against the G-men?

The Dolphins will always be awesome, so we had a bad year...big deal. If we keep losing (which hopefully we will) we'll get the first draft pick next year. So yes, we rock.

Are you trying to insinuate that people actually watched the Patriot games (or even knew they had a team) prior to their first good season?

Dude the Dolphins suck.....The Patriots are Good. Every team has fairweather fans. Only die hard fans stick by their teams when they are down.
