Once again media shows how much they care about the dolphins. On the espn afc east forums, Tim Graham, writes to all fan of afc east on what the pros and cons can be for their training camp.

If you go to the bottom of the forum a video is there that speaks of early predictions for afc east teams... oh oopsie media once again irgnores to say anything about the dolphins other then dolphins are a threat to Sanchez including patriots.

I truely do hope this season bites every other fan and media butts. I love it that dolphins has the hardest scheldule predicted because if we become afc champs again i wonder what their excuses will be this time. Bet they will say just another fluke. I know being afc east champs again will be hard to do, but you can not tell me we are not a team to beat. I honestly hope that this kind of stuff are firing up the team to work even harder.
 
The Dolphins chances will continue to be disparaged until it's proven we can outperform Brady. Might as well expect it. Optimism for the hapless Jets I don't understand, however.

Media use to love us and it did not do anything good for us and them ignoring us should certainly be expected with media's bride back, known as Tom Brady. To be honest I love that the media does not have their eyes on us as much as they do with others and we have the hardest schedule and i wish we did every year.
 
Why would the media consider us a threat to win the east when many of us think we should start a rookie QB instead of last years number two rated passer in the AFC, or believe we dont have a number one WR on the roster, or think our DB will be weak due to inexperience, and everything else I have been reading on this board for the last few months. If Dolfans can't take the Fins seriously why would anyone else.

I do see what you mean about Penny. I see how a lot of fins fans are wanting him out and henne in and don't see why we need to rush. Penny has been our greatest qb sense Marino,

although giving Henne some game experiance that has a little risk would help him once he is no longer the back up. We might not have a number one wr but have a lot of number two's... which is not the worst thing.

Db's inexperience may be an issue but you cant really say that untill sunday come up. I do agree our db's are going to need a lot of luck and then some.

Whole meaning of this article is result of boring july where football is inactive the least. Seems like the only thing you hear about football is Farve and Vick and i dont care for either.
 
I certainly hope our players and coaches arn't tryin to use the "media disrespect" nearly as much as motivaton as some people on this board are. We have given the media no reason to respect us. UNTIL we topple the patriots from the throne they have sat on for the past decade, we're never going to be in consideration. Rightly so IMO. Don't be surprised if the phins win the division again this yr and the fact that the pats didn't is the bigger story. Everyone is much more compelled with the fall of a dynasty than the up and comer that ends it.

don't take me wrong i am not hoping the coaches and players are being religious about the media ignoring them . I just hope when the time comes either when they are working out or playing in the game that they take that extra step.Yeah i know i am not making sense, But knowing how Tony is he is strictly business and winning games and does not care what they got to say about his fin which a very good thing. Two people that will most likely take it to heart are Porter and Channing.
 
I dont mind playing the underdog role anymore. Maybe i have just grown used to it now lol. But feeling like we need to win games more than we should win games makes the games more exciting to watch. That being said i think the most intriguing games this year wont be against the jets as much as the patriots. And you better believe that I will be watching that game first hand when NE comes to Miami and tries, and fails, to take our crown.
 
ESPN Previews the AFC East. (No analysis of defending champs)

http://myespn.go.com/blogs/afceast/0-9-42/AFC-East-training-camp-preview.html

The 3:22 second video spends the following length of times on each team.

Pats 1:30
Bills 0:41
Jets 0:54
Phins 0:05
What was the 5 seconds spent on the Dolphins you ask?

Oh nothing. They just thought they should say that they did not mention the defending AFC East Champs. :tumbleweed:
 
If Porter and Crowder want to take offense maybe Crowder can actually make a big play and Joey can show up sometime after week 11.

would be nice to the both to take what the media says and make big plays out of them. if they did Crowder might be one hell of a ILB.

LOL if anyone thinks that then, they are out of their mind high.I haven't really seen people talk about that at all around here, and it's not "many" like over 50% that think that, thats just crazy talk.
 
I could honestly care less what ESPN or anyone else thinks about any of this.
