Can't really say, I was brought up on Miami football since birth, but I can't imagine liking them much when I became old enough to know what a flamingo was.

I am not sure since it was sooo long ago, but if Csonka was a Phin probably.

BTW - here is the history of the name for anyone that care - http://www.miamidolphins.com/history/dolphinsname/dolphinsname.asp

Mariners, Marauders, Mustangs, Missiles, Moons, Sharks, Suns none of those other names suggested to the American Football League expansion franchise in 1965 could raise a fin to the runaway winner.

"Dolphins" was submitted by 622 entrants in a contest which attracted 19,843 entries and more than a thousand different names. The dozen finalists were delivered to a seven-member screening committee of local media.

and Flamingo was not one of them :rolleyes2:

It is definately that dull time of year in the offseason if this is all we have to talk about lol!
Things probably won't get interesting till June!
Go Dolphins!

I would still be a fan. I didn't like the name when it was first selected. I thought it sounded to wimpy.

I dont think so, this guy looks like a Bills or Jets fan and you know how much I hate them so, definelty no.

P.S. He can also pass for a Raiders fan and I can definetly see them calling it the pink hole.

How MUCH does this statement say?

 

[SuavePhin]

It says how much that Dan the Man Marino has meant to this franchise and alot of its fans, he's probably the #2 single greatest Dolphin ever (behind Shula of course)
