PrintThe 777 dudes. It's my birthday on Sunday, I have a cake ready for the game. any suggestions what shopuld go on it? My wife has weird cake decorating instruments in her hands willing to carry out my sweetest wishes. But, oh God, please let my wishes come true. Mission W big Phin-dude in the sky. A play-off run. Hell, maybe some Goo and front-page action. I know the last one is kinda crazy for a Birthday wish. Peace and Brocolli...Phinsiderettes.
7 NFL Power Rankings: Dec 27
What a MFing journey. Holy crap. We didn’t need to cheat, buy in big salaries and egos or trade away the family jewels. This has Parcell’s common sense all over it. But now that we know him, it has Sparano all over it. I really like this man. And… you know what looms in the distance (yeah I know one game at a time) … another date with Cam Cam.
Choice comments:
“Pennington could truly get the last laugh”:
Yep, he could, he should, he is gonna. For the first time I really believe we can kill a decent opponent. We fight tough, we do what it takes to get it done. We control the ball in all the right areas. I don’t think – oh-oh here comes a dumb play. I don’t need to cover my eyes for that 3rd down. If Chad does get to laugh it will truly be one of the sweetest NFL ironies of all time. Beautiful.
“NFL's most unlikely division title ever”:
Yup, Disney all over it. And when they do write that movie what are they gonna call it? ‘Last to First’ – Will it be a musical? Who will play Chad?
Will Sporano play Sparano?
give Sparano the coach of the year award”:
No doubt. They won’t. Ok so we under the radar – they doubt us to the end – cool- we are so far under the the MFing radar we could do some stealth bombing. Who cares – respect my ass – they can all apologize after the season is done.

Just look at that progression thru the teens. That's as reluctant and begrudging as it gets. They did not want to do it but really had no choice after Ws started to kerrching like a New Years sale in a Macy's cash register.
Top 10 Baby, Hell Yeaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!
And here is what they are saying ‘bout or beloved Phins
|
All they have to do is beat the Jets to make the playoffs. |
|
|
Sure they've only won two games against teams with winning records. Fine, they barely beat some of the league's worst teams like the Raiders, Seahawks, 49ers, Rams and Chiefs. But one more win against Chad Pennington's old team gives the Dolphins the NFL's most unlikely division title ever. |
|
|
If they go to New Jersey and beat the Jets they win the AFC East. That would be incredible. Chad Pennington probably wouldn't have it any other way, playing against his former team to do so. |
|
|
No one is better at shopping for groceries than Bill Parcells, and Tony Sparano, cool as those shades he wears during post-game interviews, is a smooth motivator. Let's give Sparano the coach of the year award right now, shall we? |

Pennington might show the Jets the error of their ways. |
|
Back on Aug. 1 at Jets camp, I asked Chad Pennington if he ever went home and screamed into the pillow with all the Brett Favre-to-the-Jets talk swirling about? "Oh, yeah," he said. "I go home and blow some steam off. I'm getting ready to do it here in a second." Guess who else might be headed home to scream into the pillow? The Jets and Favre, if Miami and Pennington beat New York and take the AFC East title Sunday at the Meadowlands. |
|
|
The Dolphins allowed 492 total yards but earned a 38-31 win at icy Kansas City behind a 3-TD performance from Chad Pennington, giving them control of their own destiny in the AFC East. Pennington’s 3,453 yards passing is a career high, and his 65.9 career completion percentage makes him the most accurate passer in NFL history. The Dolphins haven’t been five games over .500 since 2001. Pennington could truly get the last laugh against the team that eschewed him in favor of Brett Favre; Pennington has more passing yards, a higher YPA, a better passer rating and 12 fewer INTs. |
Hail Tony and the Phins.

I think it should be named,
“The Comeback Year” like the “Comeback Kids” but it’s somewhat different
Phins are Awesome. Period.
it'll happen!
I had a Jets Dolphins game on my birthday a few years ago. It was the fake spike game, so, your birthday present will be a game like that, where you can say for the rest of your life…….“Hey, that was on my birthday! And we won the Division!”
Merry Christmas to all , and to the Jets GOODNIGHT!
