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

[Frank Scott]

I kind of like it that the main stream sports media isn't giving us lots of attention or respect, but we did make the drudge report.  He has a cool pic of Sparano giving the first down signal with the headline, " Miami? "

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...
