I used to get all pissy and upset, but now I just accept it, and chuckle a little. Its getting old and I'm getting to the point where I don't even watch all the game sometimes. If I have to do something, oh well I miss a qtr or maybe a half. Big deal. Don't usually miss much.

That is a danger for Mr. Ross. That when people like me, that were dyed-in-the-wool fans that breathed and slept for Dolphins football, and now missing part of a game is just no big deal, Mr. Ross is losing potential revenue. Because if its happening to me, I can see it happening to a few more thousand DolFans. That adds up to a lot of lost revenue for Ross. Not good for him.
 
I watched the Dolphins in the 70s and 80s and I used to get pissed off when they lost. I think the main reason was that it was very uncomon for them to lose allot of games during the season.

Now the loses are more common and when I watch a game I expect them to lose. I guess I am now immune to them losing which is very hard.
 
For a long time, I would feel like complete **** after a loss and my next 2-3 days were absolutely miserable. During the 2007 debacle I got really used to the feeling and I got to the point that I was numb to it. Now I know each loss gets us closer to Luck and a new regime and actually, it feels kind of...well...good. Losing sucks, but you know what sucks even more? Being mediocre forever...which is what we have been and what we will continue to be if we don't take a chance on Luck and make big front office changes.

I know each loss this season is actually good for the team and helps us in the long run. Short term pain, for long term gain.
 
I get excited!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! One step closer to Andrew Luck!

It used to be I was impossible to be around for that day, then
pretty much a bear for the next couple. Honestly, people
couldn't even watch Dolphins games with me. My wife would
take the kids out of the house.

Now? I'm lucky if I pay attention to the whole game.

This was me to a "T". Now I'm pretty much indifferent. I used to go out to the local sports bar to catch the game - I hardly ever missed one. I haven't bothered doing that in a couple years. Seriously, if not for fantasy football, I'm not sure I'd even watch much Sunday football. It's gotten so sad, I used to live for football on Sunday.
 
I was worse after the first two losses this season then the last two. Sadly the more Miami loses in a season the more complacent I become towards losing.

It isn't that I want the team to lose, it is more of the "well I better focus on other **** during the weekend because screaming isn't going to fix any of the Dolphins problems this season"

and that is the reality of the situation, why make everyone's life miserable when I have no control over the outcome?

I will still watch the game two Sundays from now and I will still get in rival fans faces but now it will be about fun. Have fun with it. It is what it is and working yourself into a stroke isn't going to fix it so I will have fun with it from here on out.
 
First 2 games of the year I screamed my a$$ off at the TV, but the last 2 I just watched in pure silence because I've already come to expect a loss so why get mad anymore?
 
I got really upset in years past because I wasted $200-$300 on sunday ticket to watch them fail miserably. This year I had the feeling they would be bad so I decided to listen to the games on sirius. While it still depresses me me at least I have a little more cash in hand! Although being here in Packerland these fat beer swilling packers fans like to poke fun at miami and now this year they are just like "sorry man".

Funny thing is last year I jumped the Packer bandwagon and this year the Lions are diverting my pain

10-20 years ago there was only one team I was interested in watching & now they are not worth watching at all every year...strange days indeed.
 
This team, the next Phins coach, the locals, me you and everyone in between doesn't just want Miami to draft Andrew Luck. We NEED it. My choices were laugh, be happy the FO is gone I am immune to these losses and the Luck option. I feel 4 ways after a Phins loss in 2011. In the past I got mad but now I smartened up and realize this one bad year is only worth it if we are the WORST. People wanting a few wins here and there need to be put in a straight jacket because mediocre in this year is long term SUICIDE!
