Bill Simmons Somewhat Likes the Dolphins

[Rhody Phins Fan]

I'm sure a lot of people on here don't like Bill Simmons because he is a New England homer but I thought it was interesting that he actually ranked Miami 18th in his little power poll ahead of both the Jets and Patriots. I know many people like being the underdog but I like when even Patriots fans think we're good. He also picked us to beat the Ravens.

The actual article is also interesting as it talks about what a strange season this year has been.

Bill Simmons cracks me up. It doesn't bother me as much when I know he's always been a pats fan.

Simmons is my favorite writer.

He calls it like it is. If the Phins are bad, he rails them. When they're good, he has no problem admitting it. His views and opinions are refreshing compared to the majority of sports writers out there.
