CK, would I show an overtime game where the winning team wasgetting it's first win and relieving a year's worth of frustration over showing a game that was supposedly over at halftime? Absolutely. You were the one that said the Jets @ Patriots wasn't even close. I could eleborate more on why I would make that decision, but I think Ghoti said it best earlier in the tread.</p> <div class='quotetop'>QUOTE (ghoti)</div><div class='quotemain'></p> It's really easy nowadays to be cynical about sports.</p> Sometimes I start thinking that there's so much money involved that it becomes a lot more about greed and personal gain than winning and being a part of a team.</p> But that scene today after the game today made me feel good about sports.</p> Cleo Lemon's face after the TD when he's running and pointing at the sidelines. Wayne Huizenga crying in the owner's box. The team chant and celebration in the locker room. They were genuinely happy - not for themselves but each other.</p> I don't think it was fake, either. Those guys were truly miserable about this season.</p> So congratulations, Dolphins. Not just because you won - but because you reconfirmed that pro athletes are still worthy of my cheers.</p> </div></p> </p>
<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE (CelticKing)</div><div class='quotemain'></p> Why would you replay a team thats has won its first game? The season started months ago.</p> </p> </div></p> Dolphins have a huge fan base and it was very exciting to see them win the game!!</p>
Congrats to the Phins fans. 0-16 wouldn't look right next to the word Miami, at least not to an old timer.</p>
