lol the other announcers wanting no part of kornhiesers weed-neutral rant

jhøshea, Tuesday, 27 November 2007 02:43 (sixteen years ago) link

well it's only ugly because of the field.

and I can't say it's HURTING the dolphins. But Beck still looks nervous. But Cam is doing some stupid playcalling. the one time Beck threw on first down it set up a first down a play later. Let him throw more. You're 0-10. are you really afraid of ...gasp...a turnover?

Bo Jackson Overdrive, Tuesday, 27 November 2007 03:04 (sixteen years ago) link

Yeah. I hated the Dolphins lethargic last drive. They should have hurried to the line and let Beck throw. It's just not a sufficient moral victory to go to halftime as an 0 -- 10 team in a zero-zero tie.

Daniel, Esq., Tuesday, 27 November 2007 03:10 (sixteen years ago) link

yea I was miffed about that too. Guess this is the first ever conservative 0-10 team.

I'm going to the game next week. I really hope I get my money's worth

Bo Jackson Overdrive, Tuesday, 27 November 2007 03:11 (sixteen years ago) link

I didn't know that Miami had also signed Keith Traylor. That is one old defense.

earlnash, Tuesday, 27 November 2007 03:15 (sixteen years ago) link

I think Beck's going to be a pretty good player.

Daniel, Esq., Tuesday, 27 November 2007 03:25 (sixteen years ago) link

ok, I officially don't like Cam Cameron.

Now after being too conservative before the half, he gets too aggressive and goes on 4th and 15.

NOw, I agree that the FG may have gone horribly off kilter, but (barring a block) I'd have rather tried that than go on 4th and 15th when Pittsburgh was obviously going to blitz.

Or PUNT. at least win the field position game. Now we're gonna keep starting drives at the 5, 10, and 15.

Bo Jackson Overdrive, Tuesday, 27 November 2007 03:29 (sixteen years ago) link

We've had Traylor for the last two years.

and agreed on Beck

Bo Jackson Overdrive, Tuesday, 27 November 2007 03:29 (sixteen years ago) link

out two timeouts already. great (and one was Cam's fault, just like last week).

Bo Jackson Overdrive, Tuesday, 27 November 2007 03:31 (sixteen years ago) link

This is the most boring game of the last...oh, three seasons?!

Johnny Fever, Tuesday, 27 November 2007 03:33 (sixteen years ago) link

yea, and for my team's sake I'm glad. but I can't imagine watching this if I had no vested interest in the game. yech.

Bo Jackson Overdrive, Tuesday, 27 November 2007 03:34 (sixteen years ago) link

I didn't see the game last week, so I was kind of interested in seeing Beck at qb. Tonight's not the night to gauge him, tho.

Johnny Fever, Tuesday, 27 November 2007 03:37 (sixteen years ago) link

he's actually not done bad all things considered. I mean this is getting frustrating to lose all of our running backs.

Bo Jackson Overdrive, Tuesday, 27 November 2007 03:39 (sixteen years ago) link

This is the most boring game of the last...oh, three seasons?!

You apparently haven't been following the Dolphins this year.

This game is riveting, judged on a curve. That punt drove into the turf!; most exciting Dolphins-related play this season.

Daniel, Esq., Tuesday, 27 November 2007 03:40 (sixteen years ago) link

I'm not convinced that step on Ricky's back couldn't have been avoided. I mean, I know normalcy is suspended when there's a loose ball, but that kind of looked like a Steeler went out of his way to stomp Ricky.

Johnny Fever, Tuesday, 27 November 2007 03:42 (sixteen years ago) link

I hate Tony Kornheiser.

Daniel, Esq., Tuesday, 27 November 2007 03:43 (sixteen years ago) link

that kick was hilarious

Bo Jackson Overdrive, Tuesday, 27 November 2007 03:44 (sixteen years ago) link

does anyone find it funny that he found it ludicrous that Miami would think of a 48 yard field goal yet he basically said it'd be stupid for PIttsburgh not to try a 44 yarder?

Bo Jackson Overdrive, Tuesday, 27 November 2007 03:44 (sixteen years ago) link

Hold . . . Hold . . .

Daniel, Esq., Tuesday, 27 November 2007 03:54 (sixteen years ago) link

Gah. Where is our pass protection?

Oy vey, that kick.

Daniel, Esq., Tuesday, 27 November 2007 03:56 (sixteen years ago) link

FUCKING. FIRE. THIS. COACH.

Bo Jackson Overdrive, Tuesday, 27 November 2007 03:57 (sixteen years ago) link

DEAR WHOEVER IS IN CHARGE,

FIRE CAM CAMERON!

THX,
JF

Johnny Fever, Tuesday, 27 November 2007 03:57 (sixteen years ago) link

geez I mean the field goal may have looked like shit again but come on, 4th and 11? again?

Cam, go fuck yourself.

Bo Jackson Overdrive, Tuesday, 27 November 2007 03:57 (sixteen years ago) link

Fire Cameron immediately after the game.

Daniel, Esq., Tuesday, 27 November 2007 04:02 (sixteen years ago) link

Can the NFL suspend a coach for negligence?

Johnny Fever, Tuesday, 27 November 2007 04:02 (sixteen years ago) link

LOL.

Daniel, Esq., Tuesday, 27 November 2007 04:03 (sixteen years ago) link

So, only 90 yards to go. NP.

Daniel, Esq., Tuesday, 27 November 2007 04:05 (sixteen years ago) link

I mean...I'm the nicest guy in the world when it comes to Miami coaches. I defended Wannstedt.

But NOTHING I've seen this year tells me Cam is ready to be a coach. He has the worst time management skills of any coach (blows timeouts due to not feeding in playcalls among other things)...and....I...just....

a tie isn't so bad. only 21 more minutes.

Bo Jackson Overdrive, Tuesday, 27 November 2007 04:05 (sixteen years ago) link

wow wow I just got home and ate and turned this on
wow wtf

El Tomboto, Tuesday, 27 November 2007 04:06 (sixteen years ago) link

i actually really like terico, korny & jaws as a broadcasting team..too bad MNF gets such a shitty scheduling of games

this game seems like that legendary mich-osu game where the teams were punting every 1st down in hopes the other team would eff up

johnny crunch, Tuesday, 27 November 2007 04:08 (sixteen years ago) link

The MNF announcers are laughing at us.

Daniel, Esq., Tuesday, 27 November 2007 04:09 (sixteen years ago) link

Please dear God I swear I will burn all of my Deicide cds if Miami can force a fumble and run it all the way back for the game winning TD. I'll even go on tour with dc talk

Bo Jackson Overdrive, Tuesday, 27 November 2007 04:11 (sixteen years ago) link

Who is/are Deicide? Like ICP?

BJO, you unbanned from ILM? You need to be.

Dammit, Pittsburgh.

Daniel, Esq., Tuesday, 27 November 2007 04:13 (sixteen years ago) link

if we lose this I'm gonna be on suicide watch.

not just cuz we lost. but cuz they coulda saved me 3 hours by losing 42-0

Bo Jackson Overdrive, Tuesday, 27 November 2007 04:16 (sixteen years ago) link

I'd kind of like to see overtime now, just for the wtf-ness of it.

Johnny Fever, Tuesday, 27 November 2007 04:16 (sixteen years ago) link

Oh, don't worry: We are going to lose this game.

Daniel, Esq., Tuesday, 27 November 2007 04:19 (sixteen years ago) link

WE Dolphins fans must have been child murderers in another life.

Bo Jackson Overdrive, Tuesday, 27 November 2007 04:21 (sixteen years ago) link

No. It's just payback for the perfect season. Sadly, the Patriots are riding a karma wave because of all their horrible teams in the 70s/80s.

Daniel, Esq., Tuesday, 27 November 2007 04:23 (sixteen years ago) link

How sad.

Daniel, Esq., Tuesday, 27 November 2007 04:25 (sixteen years ago) link

god...fucking...dammit.

Bo Jackson Overdrive, Tuesday, 27 November 2007 04:25 (sixteen years ago) link

God, just for that, I'm joining the Church of Satan

Bo Jackson Overdrive, Tuesday, 27 November 2007 04:25 (sixteen years ago) link

Ginn = miracle man?

Johnny Fever, Tuesday, 27 November 2007 04:26 (sixteen years ago) link

so do the '76 buccaneers get together and pop champagne in the event that the dolphins eventually win?

chicago kevin, Tuesday, 27 November 2007 04:26 (sixteen years ago) link

Um, no.

Johnny Fever, Tuesday, 27 November 2007 04:26 (sixteen years ago) link

x-post

They made a joke earlier about the 76 Bucs tapping a keg.

Johnny Fever, Tuesday, 27 November 2007 04:27 (sixteen years ago) link

Don't worry: There's still 2 seconds left.

Daniel, Esq., Tuesday, 27 November 2007 04:27 (sixteen years ago) link

3-0? That's a soccer score.

SeekAltRoute, Tuesday, 27 November 2007 04:28 (sixteen years ago) link

Sadly, the Patriots are riding a karma wave because of all their horrible teams in the 70s/80s.

you guys never should've stopped playing at the orange bowl. pats went more than 20 years without a win there.

chicago kevin, Tuesday, 27 November 2007 04:28 (sixteen years ago) link

hey, how did willie parker do?

chicago kevin, Tuesday, 27 November 2007 04:28 (sixteen years ago) link

it wasn't a banner night for anyone.

Johnny Fever, Tuesday, 27 November 2007 04:29 (sixteen years ago) link

I never even think about the Miami dolphins during the season, but this is great fun

Sufjan Grafton, Monday, 27 January 2014 06:22 (ten years ago) link

seven years pass...

three of the worst linemen in the league on one offensive line. you dream of luck like this.

last dropback, center and both guards got pushed around like IKEA furniture.

no matter how many draft picks we throw at the position, we get Dig Dug characters at the position

Cool Im An Situation (Neanderthal), Sunday, 21 November 2021 18:47 (two years ago) link

eleven months pass...

lol solved the offense problem now the defense breaks.

Fash Gordon (Neanderthal), Saturday, 12 November 2022 18:28 (one year ago) link

I kinda wonder once you do get one of those fancy passing attacks what happens is that teams have to throw the ball to keep up and the you find out your team cannot stop the pass.

This was pretty much the Colts under Manning all the time and really kinda the Dolphins when they had Marino too.

earlnash, Sunday, 13 November 2022 05:43 (one year ago) link

Yeah I didn't start watching the Fins til 1989 and though he has a really good defense in 1992, the fear was often "great, we got the lead! How long will our defense keep it?".

Then by the time he acquired Jimmy Johnson's defense, they were running the ball much more than with Shula (without talented RBs to do it) and Dan had lost a step and couldn't take advantage

Fash Gordon (Neanderthal), Sunday, 13 November 2022 05:46 (one year ago) link

Hilarous thing was the Dolphins were all about the defense and running game before Marino started blasting bombs left and right with very workman like QB play (ex. David Woodly took them to a superbowl with the Killer Bs. D).
