I wish that i had the money and lived in miami so i could chase women and go to the fins games. but i am living on a fixed income so i have to impervise . what is eating me and i dont know if it eats on any of you guys but I am tired of the oklahoma media bashing the south florida franchizes and Espn is even worse . dont these idiots know that people are losing their jobs and gas prices at unacceptable prices.
I am surounded by dallas fans who are always putting down our former players . I went off on one caller by saying 0.j. Mcduffie , Howard Twilley , and Paul Warfield are better wrs then michael Irving and that is my opinion.

the question i have is why are the Marlis, heat and dolphins the most critized teams in the major sports ?

is the attendence related to the teams records?

dont the fins need to add a some big time talent to draw fans in ? I think mcfadden or mendenhall would have help but we needed oline help baddly.
do any of you know how many people the fins , heat and marlins attract ?
this cat on espn today , i forgot his name was calling dolphin stadium the uggliest and poorest excuss for a sports stadium in all of sports. I dont agree with this cat and i thought mr. H. was remodeling the place.
I am just wondering how you guys fekt about this issue.
 
Does bad attendence reflect on all fans? Absolutely not. Look at all of the great fans we have here at Finheaven.
 
it he phins were in philly it would be no problem, when you have naked women ten minutes up the road on the beach, it is tough to keep people in the seats if the team is losing, too much to do in miami
 
one of the reasons imo is that dolphin stadium does not provide an exciting atmoshere for the fans AND ESPECIALLY the players, its a visious cycle that we are stuck in... I hate it with a passion
 
The seats sit a mile away from the action which is really stupid. Our stadium is the worst for that in the entire league. Then we have too many fickle fans. When there are all kinds of empty seats for a home playoff game you know there's problems!!! There's no excuse for having a lot of empty seats for a playoff game!!!! That is unheard of!!
 
fans need to feel like their having an impact on the game and the emotional level of our players, our stadium does not allow us to do either... just remember the orange bowl baby and you will know how negative the architecture of dolphin stadium directly affects our franchise on so many levels in a negative way.

Its only going to be that much harder getting to where we wanna go with no homefield advantage
 
Bad attendence is affected by many things. If a team is bad that can certainly keep people from going to watch thier team lose, economics of area can also affect things, also the prices have gone straight to crazy so I cannot blame anybody for not being at the games.
 
IMO Dolphin stadium is a beautiful place. It's also very comfortable. But as pointed out above, the seats are too far away. It's not exciting for the teams or the fans. Unfortunately that won't change until the Marlins are gone. When do they leave again? Was it 2009 or 2010?

I would kill to go to home games at Dolphin Stadium. Living in Ohio, it is not feasable. But, I do go and support the team when they play in Cleveland (damn referees) and am looking to go see them play in Toronto.

I do the same in Tampa although my last experience sucked since we lost.
 
Way to many people from up north live here, so their really isnt any homefield advantage.
 
Miami is a city of transplants whom have retired. Retirees that move to Miami usually have disposable income and a vested rooting interest in whatever team their home city has produced. Most Dolphin fans are Blue-Collar guys who love their team but have families and cant afford taking them to every game. Tickets aside, everything that goes along with the experience is expensive. No, i dont think attendance is a negative reflection of our passion. Dolphin fans are some of the loyalest and amicable people I have ever met and that is what we should be proud of. Dont you think if the Pats were to go 1-15, that suuden rise in Pats gear would disappear quickly....yet I still see the flags on cars, the hats, the jerseys....Im proud to be associated with you, my fellow fin fans!
 
I have taken the trip and been to a home game. I live in Mississippi, but have been to 9 games besides the 1 hme game i went to. Psst we have won all of them. LOL!
 
Its not a reflection on the fans, there are way too many a-holes living in Florida that insist on pretending that they are still in New York, Ohio, Michigan, or what ever other **** hole they crawled out of.

If it is sooooo good where back home where they came from then please do us all a favor and head back... don't let the door hit you on the way out!
