Acceptance: The Final Stage Of Grief

[DKphin]

Accept that after 18yrs. and, God knows, too many coaches that things will never change.

Accept that we will be in a perpetual state of mediocrity.

Accept that we have a coach that has an allergic reaction to a pass that is more than 5yds beyond the LOS and too many times calls a pass to be completed behind the LOS.

Accept that this team will find new and inventive ways to lose games.

Accept that your teams QB that is paid like a top 5 player, but plays like a average player and often plays like he is well below that.

Accept that, despite throwing money at it, drafting 1st rd. players, and bringing in veterans to help, the OL will be in a perpetual state of disrepair.

Accept that the culture change that the coach was seeking to help the team seems to have done little to change the path of the organization.

And finally, accept that frustration and sorrow, interspersed with momentary feelings of joy, is a constant condition of being a Dolphin fan.

Oh, accept that you may never see a change before you die.

Accept the fact that most of us have PTSD from following the team

 

[finomenal]

I've seen enough. I threw up the Kool-Aid I started chugging this year. I'm back to being a pessimistic fan. It's easier that way.

 

[BennySwella]

Accept that in the end it is just a game.

Accept that adjustments will be made.

Accept that if adjustments arent made, people who will make them, will be put into power.

Accept that they will give us a chance to win in the future.

Accept that it is hard being a fan, but even harder to be a fin fan.

Accept that when you have had one of the best QB's to have ever lived, you may never get another QB that will be the half of what he was.

Accept that having an undefeated season is pretty special in itself, and some franchises don't even have 1 superbowl win in their history.

Accept that we played in the same division as the greatest sports dynasty/regime that has ever existed in professional sports.

Accept that their time will come to an end, and hopefully we will be there to take their place.

Accept that it isn't happening this year.

Accept you would be happier if you start listening to Ozzy!!

I heard this on the radio today: Since Marvin Lewis became Cincinnati's head coach in 2003, Miami has had 9 different coaches. 9! Cincinnati is a more stable franchise than Miami. Miami still has a more recent playoff win than Cincinnati which I guess speaks volumes for both clubs lol

 

[artdnj]

Yeah we both suck, thats the common denominator

I wouldn't use Marvin Lewis as some great poster child of a successful/Belichick like coach.

I feel your frustration, but things will change but seldom does change just happen, the organization has to want it first and then make that change happen. The question is how drastic do you want that change to be and is the fan base ready to wait for such a change. From what I see they'll have to blow it up or gut the whole damn thing, use the draft board by trading down to acquire multiple picks, trade away some of our decent players, blow up the FO....etc. You think the fans are willing to accept a few more years of knowing that this team would be going nowhere fast...…...just asking.

I don’t think I did. The point was Miami has been a very dysfunctional franchise and have been through 9 coaches in 15 years.

No link. Just my try at administering my own therapy for my insanity.

Oh, I think you did by using him as an example.

1-15 was dark times, this is not.

We are still 3-2 and tied for the division lead. Some of you guys need to get a grip.
