The reason I didn't post last season was two-fold:
1). After the first two games, the board was literally unreadable. "Tuna sucks, Sparano sucks, heads need to roll!!"- that kind of stuff. I was disgusted enough with the outcome of both those games, and then reading the board made me more disgusted because of how unreasonable people were being after just two games! So I didn't post out of disgust.
2). We then started winning with the Wildcat in New England... I was floored. Shocked. Stunned. All in an amazing way. Then the wins started to roll- being as superstitious as I am, I figured some time after the San Diego game "I haven't posted all year...we're doing great. I can't start now- I'll jinx them". So I stayed away, but continued to read the boards every day.
I actually turned down tickets to the Dolphins-Jets clincher at the Meadowlands because of my superstition... I have been to 7 Fins-Jets games up here- and I'm 0-7. There was no way I was gonna risk it in a game of that magnitude... no way. I knew if I showed up some freaky s*it would happen, and we would lose, and I would want to jump off a freaking bridge. So I stayed home and watched it on TV... and we won!! And I don't regret it one bit because of how sweet it is, was, and always will be... easily the greatest moment of my life as a Dolphins fan (I'm 30, so I wasn't around for the 70's and in '84- our last SB appearance- I was 5).
Here's to the 2009 team giving us more great memories to remember forever!! I'll be making the trip to Miami for the home opener against Indy- maybe I will see some of you there!
