90% negativity from all the posters

[matt11390]

I feel bad for you. We win and the normal reaction after decades where wins have been rare is to celebrate. But you can't even enjoy wins. But what really sucks is posters like you can't let the rest of us enjoy the win. We friggin won. The Dolphins control their own destiny in the playoff race. I'm amazed at this board sometimes.

Normal reaction after decades of losing as you say is to say whupty crap. Show me you can win consistently and I will get excited. However, when you beat Cincy one week, lose to TB the next, beat a crappy SD team the next, the term is fools gold. We have Carolina coming next week let's see how we do after that one.

It's not about being perfect but being consistent. You can't lose to TB one week and beat a crappy SD the next and expect people to get excited. SD is as bad as we are for Pete's sake. We have sucked for almost 15 years and had a losing season for the last 4 and it will be 5 after this season. One win against a crappy team doesn't do it for me. I want to see us making improvements consistently to win my confidence in this organization back.

Being inconsistent is a lot better than being whatever we've been the past 20 years... One win doesn't do it for me but you're just being pessimistic because why are you just talking about one win? Why are you ignoring the FACT THAT we're in the playoff hunt after 11 weeks.

And since when was San Diego crappy? They beat some good teams this year and lost close games to other teams. Check your facts and realize that there's no easy win in the NFL.

I don't post very often but Jesus Christ we lose everyone moans we win everyone moans why can't people enjoy the wins??????? I know we are not a Super Bowl team but come on we are in the playoff mix that is a fact all you haters get over it we are at.500 and currently around the last wild card spot all the negativity won't change that ! I understand we have more holes to fill than a Callander but all this hating all time is un called for?

90% of all the threads and posts are people knocking this player or this coach or this play call people need to loosen up I'm not delireous I'm not expecting a deep playoff run I'm hoping for a playoff wildcard challenge I think if we had another perfect season people on here would still be negative I'm not wearing rose tinted glasses I'm just saying our win puts us in the hunt with everything that has happened to us this season this is a positive so let's enjoys the wins guys!!!

DARIUS???? Is that YOU???

 

[Chubby]

Fair enough, my friend. But in as much as the positive thinkers should not dictate to people how to be fans, please don't tell the positive people to not be happy.

I am not telling anyone not to be happy..... just defending my view...

I suggest that you just hop on the bandwagon in 2 more years because I don't see us being contenders until then. But this year is progress. You can't get excited over it? Then why are you here? How about this... If you see a thread where posters are being positive, stay away and stick to the threads where fans are bitching. There's plenty of em.

Any win is a step in the right direction ?

 

[AllFinsAllDay]

I think I'm pretty even-handed, but I'll say, that on behalf of the posters who say someone is a bust, or we're a bad team, it's just their opinion, just like you have yours. I really don't see what the problem is. Usually the title of the thread will tip you off to it. No one forces you to read it.

And, actually, we didn't play that well in the beginning of this game and could have easily lost. We had some big plays by Grimes and Clay, and Tanny was smart with the football in the 4th quarter. And, thank god, the Chargers are inept.



Where's My Contract, Jeff!!!

That is not true when they come into the game thread a spew their garbage.

SD is not crappy they are exactly what we are a .500 to subpar .500 team that is good enough to win but not good enough to win constantly..

And a loss is a step backwards right? so right now we are even? =) again. lets be real. Lets call it like it is....

A realist is what a pessimist calls himself when the Lithium kicks in.

That happens with a young team with a young QB. Consistency breeds confidence and experience at the QB breeds consistency in the NFL.

Edit- Chubby...I don't want to seem in getting on you. Just don't get why you aren't happy we won and are in the head of a playoff hunt. That's all. Sorry, I'm passionate about the fins winning.

While I always enjoy wins, I still hated the coaching today. A lot of stupid play calls today, and the clock management at the end almost cost them. I want them to win. I hate losing.

People forget that there was a lot of positivity after week 3.

Losing 6 of the last 8, having your oline blowup by a sissy man child through the national media can bring bring about some negative threads.

One thing I've noticed though is how much sentiments reflect the media. When all the media starts to report negative stories, they are mirrored here. Sometimes almost word for word. If you read closely, you can tell which writers some posters like.

Losing brings about negativity. One win simply can't erase that feeling because there has been so much of it.

Also this is where people come to vent. To cheer. To cry. To whatever.

If you don't like the negative threads don't read em, or respond. I don't when they get to me.

Yea, I know. And we beat them. I don't know if people who question the quality of wins and losses understand today's NFL. Just look at the standings. There's Denver, New Orleans, New England, Seattle, and Kansas City. And then there's a whole big cluster **** of teams that can beat each other any given week. You want to win consistently? So do I. Because this year that would pretty much mean Super Bowl contenders. So are you guys Super Bowl or Bust? AFC Conference Championship or Bust? I dunno. But what I see is people being impatient and unrealistic.

I was in the game thread too, and I didn't find anything wrong with it.

I've noticed there are 10 types of posters on Dolphin blogs. Which one are you? (FYI, you have any combination, like a chinese dinner).

1. The positive police
2. The "we always suck" crowd
3. The fireland crowd
4. The OCD/Control freaks who have to tell everyone else how to behave and how to think
5. The jokesters
6. The bullies
7. The mentally ill
8. The mods
9. The trolls from other teams
10. The normal people
