    Looks like the Knowshon Moreno pick up is turning into a nightmare.
    • Showed up to mini-camp overweight and out of shape.
    • Now dealing with left knee issue that is requiring arthroscopic surgery which will leave him out for at least a month.
    Happy we avoided him at this point.

    At this point? So you wanted him back when free agency opened?

    The Dolphins were the only team that had interest in him I read lol.

    Don't forget that Pouncey just had hip surgery and is expected to miss at least 3 months and at least 6 games. Their O-line is going to be terrible, with 5 new starters (including several rookies) trying to figure out how to work together.

    It's too bad that we don't play them until the season is almost over- it'd be nice if we could have started off the season with some games against them.

    To be honest, I don't know. I do remember reading that not many teams were interested, but I wasn't necessarily opposed to it. I thought he could be a good addition with Ivory and Powell, and it turns out we hit a potential homerun with Johnson instead. I wouldn't have been mad at all if we took him on the cheap.

    Right now, I am happy as hell where we ended up. Chris Johnson and Ivory has the potential of being insane.

    I don't get what there is to laugh about. Two of their players got injured, it's not like they got arrested for de-pantsing Donald Trump. The same thing could happen with the Jets.

    Just a thread to pile on the bullshit they are going through :)

    Fat and out of shape Moreno. Injured Moreno and now injured Pouncey.

    True.

    But I think for the most part it's just gloating over their bad luck. Their fans did the same thing when Revis and Holmes got hurt in 2011.

    Does it matter what their fans did when Jets players got hurt? Do you want to be like a Phins fan? Injuries happen but to make fun of or gloat just isn't right.

    Yeah you should definitely strive to be like douchebag fans cheering injuries on the internet. Not saying you're defending them, just saying that fighting douchebaggery with douchebaggery is pretty dumb

    Yeah, have never understood that element of some fandom.

    Gloating over injury is classless, rooting for it is downright offensive.

    Who's rooting and cheering for injuries?

    I'm laughing at the Dolphins lack of success year after year and their consistent terrible luck.

    While I do not wish injury on anybody, lets not kid ourselves and think for one second that anyone on this board would be sad or upset if Brady went down and never played again.

    I agree. I wasn't gloating, just saying that I understand why people do it. I always remember that these are real people.

    Meanness begets meanness. Never said we should strive to be bad fans.

    I would be upset. I want him to play long enough that he declines from age, ends up getting pressured to retire, and then plays for another team, or two, like Favre. I want the Jets to beat New England with a healthy yet declining Brady.

    Can we pin this thread? It's nice to have an official thread to laugh at the Dolphins for the next few years. It can be like the perfect season thread!

    Meh, no need to create a running hate thread for a division rival. We're better than Pats fans.

    Agreed.. The thread they have over on PatsFans about us is longer than any thread discussing their own team... Sad really.
