I know it wasn't the Super Bowl, but it sure felt like it this afternoon at the Margarita Lounge. The Miami Dolphins finally won a football game today! It wasn't the prettiest win and they didn't beat a great team, but I will take it. Just the thought of going 0-16 and forever being known as the worst team in NFL history was really making me sick this week. I had nightmares about it on Wednesday Night (no kidding). I got so excited this afternoon after the winning touchdown that I scared the crap out of Zach. The poor guy started crying because I was so fired up. Sorry buddy...
While there is no hope of playoffs, at least one win looks like it will keep Cam Cameron in his job...at least for another year. If they are still this bad next year he will be gone. But even if the team ends up going 1-15 this year, I am comforted to know that there were lots of good teams that went 1-15. The Cowboys in the late 80s were 1-15 in Jimmy Johnson's first year and went on to win three Super Bowls. The Carolina Panthers were 1-15 and went to the Super Bowl a few years later. I just feel like a huge weight has been lifted off my shoulders....
On a related note, congrats to Mr. Hickman and his Browns. They are now tied with the Steelers and look like a lock to make the playoffs. I will definitely be rooting for Cleveland this postseason.
