That's really thin. Considering the fact that I have at least a dozen friends named "mike" its hardly proof that he was some other teams fan from ten years ago. And which was it? Is he a Jets fan or a Bills fan? Its not like NY is packed with guys that root for both rivals.
The real truth is that you didn't like the guy, which is fine because he certainly went out of his way to piss people off, but the dude was a Dolphins fan. NOBODY spends the amount of time he spent on this site posting the amount of news he did or 'pretending' to be a dolphin fan for laughs. He was on this site as much as I am and that's too much. No way he was faking it for 2 years. No way.
