I still can’t pull myself away from watching the pain staking torturous games, but for the last few years, I’ve become numb to the losses.
The old days, I woulda been sick to my stomach after a loss. Hating waking up on Monday morning with a pit in my stomach. Now I’m just like, “eh, just another day”
But I’ll be all in again starting with the upcoming draft, moving forward. Cuz well, we’re Dolphins fans and we apparently like to be tortured…
Like me as well. I no longer expect to win and when we do great. But when we lose, I do not take it so hard anymore. I have done some very idiotic things after losses in the past. No more. I went to jail one time.
This year, I did not expect anything good to happen.
This is my second season without Sunday Ticket. I went the way with streaming. I thank those who put me onto the sites. With my MacBook and casting to my TV worked out pretty good. A little bit of a pain in the ass, but better than $400+ to watch the Dolphins was a no-brainer. I paid for the Ticket since the inception. Many years.
I will do the same next year unless wholesale changes are made in the front office and coaching. We need a jolt! A big jolt!
But like you, I will have interest in the draft and whatever comes this offseason. I hope they clean house and start the rebuild again with the right people running the show. I do not expect that to happen. But it could?
I will be 70 in July. I have been a die hard fan since childhood, growing up in N Miami. Taking the shuttle bus to the OB from N Miami. My dad would also take us north when they had blackouts. We had a lot of fun.
I don't know how many years remain for me, but I hope to see something positive from the Dolphins before I go.
The bright spot now is the Hurricanes. They are great, they are Miami and they are my team.
I'm not the kind of person to jump ship. I could never change my affiliation. However, the Carolina Panthers are my home team here in Campobello, SC.
They won their division this year and I hope they can advance. It's a Young (no pun) team, but it looks like Brice Young may actually work out. So I have at least one more NFL game with a team of mine in it.
