Isn't it funny how the national sports media made such a big deal about Ricky coming back and quick to point out that he had little to no contribution on his first couple of games... but they completely fail to report when he manages and impressive 82 yards on 17 carries (4.8 ypc). Actually I'm astonished by the lack of coverage on the Dolphins win at all apart from the local news. If anything is said it's about the Saints and their idiot owner, or how Aaron Brooks makes dumb mistakes... but no press on Ricky or Ronnie who almost broke the 200 yard barrier. Sure the Saints vs. Dolphins didn't have huge implications, but it was the return of Saban to LSU, our rookie running back has now shown in four games that he has what it takes to be the real deal in the NFL, and our ex-feature running back was running like his old self blasting through defenders with authority. Heck even the Houston - Cleveland game recieved more press... and that just sickens me. :yell:

If we win this week and next you will see some coverage but as of right now at 3-4 the press is ho hum about the Fins right now.

Yet they get excited about the up-to-now winless Texans, and the equally unimpressive 49'ers. I'm not one of those conspiracy theorists that thinks everyone is out to get the Dolphins, but I definately stop and wonder about it sometimes.

***Note, just saw the ESPN article concerning Ronnie bypassing Caddy, but no mention of the Saints game or Ricky's contribution.
