I Just Don't Care Anymore.

Can't stress enough that this is just a game

There are a load of things that actually matter in life. Family, friends, charity, work, etc. it can be a little different for everybody

Sports, this team in general, are about dead last in things that matter. If you are dealing w/ an abnormal amount of stress, or you are letting this team negatively consume space in your head and you aren't putting enough time into the things that actually matter, then take a step back. Forget this stuff bc even though we all love it, it doesn't matter at all

Getting worked up just isn't good for your health. Hope you can find peace w/ it brother

Yep. I always say it is just 3 hours of " entertainment" every Sunday. I can't believe that in my younger days I would let a loss ruin my week!
 
Good luck...Many die hards who post here have been slowly letting it go for 2 decades now. You will get there...Next season if you can get outside on a beautiful Sunday instead of watching a game inside do it, you will NOT regret it based off this teams history since Marino. If its raining or your laid up with a body cast then watch it but point is...Miami Football is not worth planning your Sunday afternoon around in its current form. Enjoy life and If or when they get it back together again then bump it up your priority list once more.

In the meantime do the only real thing you can do each season...Pray that NE does not win another Super Bowl and pour more salt into the wound.

GO SD! GO PHILLIP RIVERS!!
I do this every year. Cheer my heart out for Miami. Get disillusioned and depressed that it isn’t changing. Cheer against the Patriots.

It’s getting seriously old.
 
Ya man, let's see how sanctimonious you are next year when the Dolphins are 1-9 come week 10.

If the team is 1-9 week 10, I certainly won't be blaming this guy, or being mad at him for taking a step back from the team. So I don't think that word means what you think it means.

Bottom line, I am sympathetic to where he is coming from. The Dolphins are not the only bad pro sports franchise here in South Florida that I am a long-time fan of, and I've been in that spot before. I don't think he's done anything wrong by posting his frustrations here.
 
Read 'The Art of Not Giving A F***" by Mark Manson….…it will help you deal with the Dolphins and life in general.
 
It’s weird, I feel the same now as I did when I was a kid..

Enjoy the process of trying to find the right leaders and players to build a dynasty, the quest continues..
 
dont you want to sit a spell and watch our tiny 5ft 9 in qb?
 
I’ll probably never get to the not caring phase but everything is based on expectations for me. In 17 and 18 I expected a playoff team so losses hurt. In years like 07, 08, 12 and 16 I didn’t expect **** so the losses didn’t bug me nearly as much and 2 of those years were a nice surprise. 19 will be one of those years where expectations will be low and losses won’t matter as much.
 
Ya I used to be sick after a loss. Hated that Monday morning going to work. Now I just laugh. Numb to it all. Still live and breath Dolphin ball, but the pain of losses doesn’t hurt as much like it used to. I just look at my wife and say SAME OL SAME OL. STORY OF MY FOOTBALL LIFE..

I still love the draft like Christmas.
 
For 2 decades I have invested so much of my time and energy into following this team...a blind and ignorant hope drove me. Passion is what drove me.

But no more.

I can finally let it all go. Its not that I won't be a fan anymore...but I just won't give a ****. Its become increasingly clear over the years that the NFL is a business and those who are in the "business of winning" are the largest football markets in the country. Is that a coincidence? Not sure...but that is besides the point.

Whether there are powers that be that dictate certain happenings in the NFL - from staff/coaches/players...to calls on the field...to rules being circumvented deliberately...one thing is for sure - none of it favors the Miami Dolphins if true.

And if its not true -- we just have a totally ****ing incompetent owner. We now have 2 unproven people in the most significant positions of our organization. We will surely lose for years to come. There is no longer any hope.

This might be a major relief to my mental health. I've been in therapy for 2 years for other reasons...but THIS might be the key to my recovery...the fact that I just won't give a **** anymore. There is nothing to be excited about. I never thought I would see the day where the Cleveland Browns were the most coveted team in the league and the Dolphins are the LAST.

Our only hope is that we get top 5 picks for the next few years in a row and lose so bad that these guys get cleaned out and then we become a coveted spot just like the Browns have done. Because I don't see Ross selling the team until hes about to die - he just built us a new stadium...it isn't happening.

Two?

Man up, rookie.
 
Have to wonder if Grier and Flores are here to seriously rebuild the team or are they here to tank for a couple of seasons to make it easier for the next group to do the real rebuild. Who knows with Ross and this team.

Based off what Ross said after the Gase firing he expects it to be a long and painful rebuild that will take patience. So...Just more of what we are use to as Fins fan.
