I've stopped watching the NFL for a few years now, but I've always had a soft spot in my heart for the Dolphins. Sure, they were never on the highlights I would see posted around the internet, and nobody really talked about them except for a "Hey, how are the dolphins doing?" from people who knew I was a fins fan at which point I would have to awkwardly laugh and say "I don't really know, I don't watch anymore" but hey, they were still my favorite team, no matter how absurdly dysfunctional they always were.

To be honest, even that dysfunctionality ended up growing on me after all my years watching the Dolphins. I probably wouldn't have stopped watching, if it wasn't for the NFL as a whole becoming unbearable.

Then what happens? To my surprise, I hear about Brian Flores being exiled out of nowhere. Well, typical Dolphins. What's next? Flores decides to abandon his career, and begins blabbing about literal game-rigging shenanigans? Wait what? Shenanigans that are apparently commonplace throughout the league? Wow, that perfectly explains all the objectively terrible coaches and front office execs who continue to get hired for their excellent jobs of... losing games? Holy **** it all makes sense now. THAT is why so many fans seem like they would make better decisions than NFL owners and front offices. Because they aren't playing the same game. Fans want to win, and businesses only want to sell their product. Even if it's not ethical. Even if it's not legal. And now the NFL as a whole is looking for scapegoats, before somebody decides to investigate the league for any illegal activities.

Hahahahaha. The NFL does such a wonderful job covering up their own **** every day, but it seems even they underestimated the Dolphins circus troupe. I'm sure the league wants to push off all the consequences onto the Dolphins for allowing a coach to go loco, and any other organization that gets in the way. But will that really be enough? Maybe they can avoid legal punishment that way (along with a few bribes) but will the average viewer keep watching if the entire NFL gets dragged through the mud with this scandal? I hope not. I hope the dysfunction continues. I hope the entire league gets **** on over this. And if there's one thing I truly believe in, it's the Dolphins' ability to fuel dysfunction.

That's why I'm proud to be a Dolphins fan. :HRT:
 
I'm a Dolphins fan period. Through thick and thin, through good and bad. Whatever happens with this team, I have been there most of my life and will continue to do so. As @superphin said above, fans of a team are fans period. I don't know what it would take for me to stop watching or following the Dolphins, but would have to be something pretty extraordinary tbh.
 
I don’t have to like the owner or the head coach. I support the players and I have since 1966. I will continue to support the players no matter who the owner or head coach of the Dolphins might be.
For those of you who claim that you will no longer root for the Dolphins because of Ross.
See ya and have a nice life.

I'm 55 and have been a fan since Christmas Day 1971. I'm fortunate to remember the SB wins and losses, the Marino era and everything after. I'm not going anywhere. One day we'll be relevant again.
Ive been saying that for two decades. I feel like my old wife became a b*tch, got fat and ugly so its time for divorce. Problem is, I cant see myself rooting for anyone else. I lived in Colorado for 10 years and tried to support the Broncos, but couldnt. Loyal to the Fins forever. Man i miss the Marino days, we were so lucky, but not as lucky as the Packers (Favre/Rodgers) Niners (Montana/Young) or even the Colts (Manning/Luck).
 
When I first stated to watch football, We did not have an Los Angele Team, so I picked the Dolphins since I seen Dan Marino light up the scoreboard in 96. Now that LA has a football team do I have a pass to switch? All of my teams I root for are LA based except Miami...lol
 
If you're a "fan" of a "sham" does that make you pseudo spam?

Seems to me the NFL is more diversion for most folks -- which is truly sad in its own way.

All that time and energy could be devoted to more immediate needs including

you name it!

It's similar for me, but further north. I'm a Giants and Warriors fan. I only watch hockey when the playoffs start, but then it's the Sharks.

Edit: Oh, and Beat LA!
