Those who know me well know that I let the fate of a professional sports team dictate my well being, but the fact remains that when the Dolphins suck, I am fucking miserable… And they have sucked for a long time. Until last year. Last year was this miracle season where after a rough start they won 9 out of their last 10 games and ended up winning the division before getting embarrassed in the play offs. This off season I was so happy because they were even better than the year before and I couldn’t wait for the season to start.  I helped found DolFans NYC the only fan club in New York City for the Miami Dolphins.  We brought out almost 100 people for the first game at the Third & Long sports bar in Murray Hill… But then they lost. And lost again, and then lost a third time.  During their most recent loss last Sunday the man most responsible for their worst-to-first record last year was injured so badly he may never play the game of football again.  Chad Pennington is gone and so is pretty much any chance of a winning season. And such is life. The Dolphins will not win the Super Bowl again. Not only have they not won in my life time, but NO sports team I have followed EVER won a championship.  I am a Dolphins fan, a Caps fan, a Georgetown Hoyas fan, a Bullets/Wizards fan and since I went there, I am mildly a Penn State Football fan. When I was a kid, do you know what my favorite baseball team was? The New York fucking Yankees. But then my favorite player Don Mattingly retired so I gave up and started rooting for the home team, the Oriels. Guess what? The Yankees won the next fucking year and the Oriels are an embarrassment to the game.

Anyway, I don’t really care about baseball or basketball, I just want my Dolphins to win the Super Bowl once before I die. Is that too much to ask?  It probably is.  I am going to try to keep it together, while you can check out the photos from our last two Dolphins NYC meetings. I even convinced my friend Ibi to go (and I forced her to wear Aqua) to the Colts game with me, as you can see in the picture of us below.  Click here for pics from Week 2 against the Colts and click here for pics from Week 3 against the Chargers. Keep in mind that these are basically snap shots and are not up to the usual oh-so-high standards that you come to expect from Driven By Boredom Productions LLC.  Yeah, fuck you too.
