Why the hostility?

Thank you, sincerely, from Dolphin fans everywhere!

Kansas City brought the hammer on the undefeated defending SB champs. Great job.

Things aren't looking so good for my Fins down here since reports of "KING CARL" taking over.... but this is a happy day.


Thanks!

"I want to shut up the '72 Dolphins." That's what we always hear. Well, they will be shut up by realities of mortality within a few decades. The players are in their 60s now, or 70s in the case of guys like Earl Morrall.

Are we supposed to believe the haters will stop desperately rooting for another unbeaten team once the final member of the '72 Dolphins is deceased? LOL. That's always the little problem with the argument from nitwits like Rick Reilly, who obsessed over Miami's celebration in Sports Illustrated beginning two decades ago. It's always been pure jealousy, regardless of whether the old Dolphins pop champagne or are in a group coma all season. One franchise holds the most unique and treasured single season team accomplishment in the most high profile American sport. Jealousy is natural. The denial is comical.

I'll offer my sincere thanks as well, no doubt equally well received. And I'll do it from the terms of a bettor who invested in the Chiefs today. I was hardly alone. The line plummeted from Green Bay -14 to -11 in short order. A move of that magnitude is exceedingly rare, particularly when it opposes a power team. Normally a line move against a premier team is rigorously opposed by the public. In this case there was so much wise guy money on the Chiefs the spread dipped to -11 and stayed there. Only the most notorious square joints resisted slightly and popped up to -12 at game time.

I'm a veteran at this rooting interest. There are always little twists that work in your favor, or against it. Once Cassell and Cutler went down Green Bay's path was ridiculously wide open, considering joke replacements like Palko and Hanie. When Haley was canned last Monday I immediately sensed an uptick, that Romeo was certain to inspire the team, at least in the short term, and insert a quarterback who could actually play, Kyle Orton. It didn't hurt that you guys have an excellent history as a home underdog, notably late in the season.

Most of all, I appreciated the style Kansas City was certain to adopt, similar to the home game against the Steelers, attacking the quarterback and staying away from a shoot out. Anyone who attempts a 38-35 game against Green Bay is destined to fail.

Let's see, AFL roots. Familiar classic uniforms, resisting idiotic modernization. Outdoor grass field. I'm trying to be complimentary, to emphasize I'm glad you guys were the ones who pulled it off today, cleansing the world. Besides, I remember our journey to 17-0 started at Arrowhead's opening, in an instant rematch of Christmas Day double overtime, with the Chiefs a 4 point favorite and every pundit forecasting a Kansas City romp. Nowadays the youngsters and their BCS brainwashed mentality want to pretend they can backfit and wipe out a game like that, insisting the '72 Dolphins played no game of consequence. LMAO
