I must vent...

dolfans,formulate your own opinions about your team based on some common sense and what you see for yourself on the football field and what is right for our organization.

stop being a puppet following the lead and surcoming your opinion to some minority fans who are negative and not to knowledable about the game let alone our dolphins.{calling for dauntes head after two games or mularkey to be fired because some bills fan says he sucks.}

I'am trying to do my part and change the perception of our fanbase,i can't just sit back and let these so called fans speak for me.

I cannot understand your personal vendetta's against our players.for example,
I want daunte to suceed but i don't think he's 100% physically or mentally,i believe joey would be a good spark for our team right now,with my own eyes i watched him play in preseason and believe his quickness in his setup and release would be a good fit right now,he does'nt seem to have any fear. I made that opinion not based on all the joey bashers that said he was horrible in detroit but just based on dolphin pride.

come on man!! you can critisize and be positive at the same time ,,right??, don't you want whats right for the team???? or do you just want to be a follower of a few that really don't care about our team,,,don't be a follower be a leader.

Saban will get this team together, and remember this, if you don't think the negative perception of our fan base affects our players i would disagree,

thanks for the time..
 
thank u! how do you so called "fans" boo the guy at the first home game he's ever played in miami. the whole team looked terrible except for kevin carter. but u dont hear anything about that...just 'joey, joey". theres a reason why harrington is second string, as well as a reason why we didnt go after him to be our starter like we did with daunte.
 
When they play like crap they deserve to be criticized and boo'd (despite what Saban says), and when they play well they deserve to be praised....simple as that.
 
Well i agree fans should support their team loyally.. but not everyone is like that. Thats just a fact of life. And if you spend $300+ on a sporting event... you can chant or boo if you choose. Thats the right of a customer... like a customer service desk at a department store.. they take complaints..Blind devotion isnt intelligent. But i agree with common sense.
 
Joey just wants to chill as a backup this year and maybe find his mojo. Now's not the time to put Joey in. If we boo him, he'll have a meltdown. Put Cleo in if CPEP can't find his groove. We'll know more this week.

they were booing they way the offense played and deservedly so because we have been putting up with this crap for many years now and its about to hit its boiling point with the fans if things dont change real soon.

I strongly disagree with that. I've been to my nephew's high school varsity football games (he plays tight end) and when they've been losing at halftime, people will actually boo these kids!!! It's unbelievable. Now you may make the argument that NFL players are millionaires and that gives us the right to treat them however we want. NFL players are still human beings and have thoughts and feelings. None of them are consciously trying to play bad and the ones who deserve to be there are probably so frustrated walking off the field after a bad series or half that hearing a roar of boos is like pouring salt on a wound.

Personally, I love it when I've been at Buffalo and heard the Bills fans boo their own team. It makes me laugh. You can imagine how the other team feels when they hear the home team being booed by their own fans. It's a moral victory for them because for all intents and purposes they not only have taken the crowd out of the game, they've turned the crowd against the home team.

That's irrelevant. What Dave Wannstedt did here has nothing to do with the team that's on the field now (other than the fact that it's taking longer because Nick Saban and Randy Mueller have to work harder and longer because of the lack of talent they inherited). Booing isn't going to make a team better.

that still dont take away the fact that finfans are tired of losing home games and having a pathetic offense , especially qb and oline play, year after year.

i'am picking up your sarcasm,this thread was not a boo or not to boo thread, i'am as pissed as everyone else but i refuse to add fuel to their match, i for one would like to be part of a fan base that is respected by our football team which i don't think is the case.
So the thread was made by me to try to do my part and stop the bleeding a little,try to reverse this swell.

go ahead get your point across man!! i just try to do it constructively,

I believe it was Shouright a VIP member who made a great point,he said what happens to our players down here?,why one year they have fire and the next they fizzle,MAYBE JUST MAYBE WE AS FANS DO HAVE AN AFFECT ON THE PHYSCOLOGY OF SOME PLAYERS ON OUR TEAM.

I can only speak for myself but i can tell you that i would play football for the fans.
Imagine them players going from pittsburgh last week with those fans and going into our opener where half the stadium is filled at kickoff,maybe i'am getting to deep here but on the other hand maybe i'am on to something.

I have personally never booed them, but last week's game was an embarrassment and so I feel that the fans who did boo had every right to.

Why is it that the fans booing players is pouring salt in the wound, but Saban screaming at players is motivation?
 
20 years since we been to the Superbowl and 30 since we had won it. That's a long time for what I call the "most looked up to team". We need to rally around our team and show support. I will this week against the Titans and every week after that. Tennessee fans better stay away from me cause I will be drunk and ready to rumble!!!
