With teams like the Dolphins and Jets in their division, it’s no wonder why the Patriots make the playoffs every year.

Being born and raised in south Florida, there were so many years and so many great moments that I had with the Dolphins.

Those days ended when Don Shula left!

I knew and partied with many of the 72 dolphin players on, (if I remember correctly) Bob Kuechenberg’s mini yacht. 8-)

I was even locked up with Gene (Mercury) Morris in the county jail!
(Me for driving without a license, him for felony possession and sales ... I believe?)

Well anyways, I tried to stick it out after Shula left but for dolphin fans it was and always will be, “Team Shula!”

Haven’t watch any NFL games since then!

There will never be any coaches again, the likes of: Landry, Madden, Parcels, Shula ....

That's an illogical comment given how well the Patriots have done in the postseason, wouldn't you say?

If I am A, and I beat B a lot, and I also beat C a lot, and you are C, and you say B sucks, then ... it doesn't guarantee you suck, but it certainly doesn't say A isn't as good as A is regarded, and it sure as hell doesn't say you don't suck.

So I guess all we know as a result of your statement is that you might suck and the Patriots are really good. :-)

Hey after posting my reply to you I thought it (my reply) was a little knee jerk and personal against you (I switched from focusing on the teams to you.) I'm a little protective, not that they need it, if I see what I think of as an unfair attack ... same as probably a lot of us are about Trump's presidency. So ... I keep the logic of the post but would take back the conflating of criticism of other teams with you personally, was kind of a cheap turn. Bad tiny owl! Bad tiny owl! And of course the owl was eaten by the raven last night, but the owl will not eat crow as a midseason loss or two is not a bad thing for the Patriots, keeps them sharp.

Belichick's post game was hilarious. The only good thing about watching the Patriots lose is watching Bill do a press conference after.

Anyway - my bad for going personal with my reply.
