DOLPHINS: The longest three hours in my life for a while..

[Mark L. Diana]

Idiots. I just don't get it. I couldn't even watch the halftime show  
And I haven't turned on ESPN, but I've read elsewhere they are just as  
bad. As least NLF.com features the Fins on their home page. ESPN has  
their picture on the home page, but the only story they feature is  
about Parcells maybe jumping ship. Their NFL page has stories about  
the Steelers, Browns(!), 49ers(!), Panthers, Raiders(!), Pats(!),  
Farve, and then Parcells. SI has finally put the AP write-up of the  
Fins win up at the top of their NFL page.

It's pathetic. I hope we end up going deep into the playoffs...
