    The Official Guide: Feed the Wolf
    Howling for the Miami Dolphin Defense

    Many people ask, “Why a howl, aren’t we the Dolphins. Why are we howling like wolves?” well that’s simply, and here is why.

    Instead it was the spontaneous, aural extension of the Dolphins' 2010 training camp theme seen on T-shirts the players are wearing. The shirts read:
    I'M STARVING -- FEED THE WOLF
    The first time coach Tony Sparano heard the howling a smile crept onto his face.
    ``They're starting to get it a little bit,'' he said

    But why a wolf…and why a howl?

    What's in a Howl?
    By Fred H. Harrington

    The center of a wolf's universe is its pack, and howling is the glue that keeps the pack together. Some have speculated that howling strengthens the social bonds between packmates; the pack that howls together, stays together. That may be so, but chorus howls can also end with nasty quarrels between packmates. Some members, usually the lowest-ranking, may actually be "punished" for joining in the chorus. Whether howling together actually strengthens social bonds, or just reaffirms them, is unknown.

    We do know, however, that howling keeps packmates together, physically. Because wolves range over vast areas to find food, they are often separated from one another. Of all their calls, howling is the only one that works over great distances. Its low pitch and long duration are well suited for transmission in forest and across tundra, and unique features of each individual's howl allow wolves to identify each other. Howling is a long distance contact and reunion call; separate a wolf from its pack, and very soon it will begin howling, and howling, and howling...

    Okay, so when do we howl?

    Well this is “Feed the Wolf”, so we must howl whenever we feel they deserve it, whenever they need it. I believe this defense deserves a standing howl the first time they hit the field. Just imagine how they are going to feel when the whole stadium howls when they come out on their home field for the first time this season. We understand it is unpractical for fans to howl all night during the game, so I think the majority of the howling should come after big plays like sacks, fumbles, interceptions, and/or just a big hit. Remember who this is meant for, not the fans, but they players. We want them to know we appreciate the play the made and that we understand that the play will help “Feed the Wolf”. But by no means do I want to limit anyone’s’ howling, so go right ahead a howl you heart out all game if you would like to.

    Dolfans, the “wolves” are ferocious and playing their asses off. It is our duty as fans to support them in their quest to “Feed the Wolf”

    And just in case a home opener against the Jets does not get your blood flowing, read this battle call posted by a fellow posted of thephins.com:

    We're not going to beat them Sunday... by: Vinny Fins
    ________________________________________
    ...WE'RE GOING TO ****ING MURDER THEM AND END THEIR ****ING SEASON AT ITS INCEPTION.



    Like some Indiana Jones Fahigahadu heart ripping from chest like **** at mid field.


    The stars are aligning, boys and girls.

    The main weapon, their holdout prodigal son, the Anti Marshall equation is not man enough to come into our domain. Our Spiritual leaders, Sam Madison, The Zach Attack, and Patrick Surtain will be there. And they know all about kicking Jet ***. There's a monumental chance here, an opportunity to be great. Why not seize it? WHY NOT TAKE THEIR PRECIOUS SUPERBOWL CONTENDER, IN OUR HOUSE, AND SEND A ****ING MESSAGE?

    "This is not your time. It will never be your time."

    Run it down their throats till they gag. And when they put 8 in the box, dagger them with WEAPON X and Davone the Best. Leave no doubt. Slaughter them with such conviction that they know exactly who their master is.

    I want them to leave a broken team. A WIN IS NOT ENOUGH. A statement is to be made.

    A loud statement of defiance to the entire NFL. SEND US YOUR SUPERBOWL CONTENDERS, AND WE WILL RENDER THEM FRAUDS.

    Leave no doubt.

    The challenge is there. Rise to it. Meet it, and make a statement with conviction. FLY THAT GODDAMN FLAG HIGH. Let them know in one voice it is our house, and then, then, AND ONLY THEN, in that moment, will they realize their master is before them.

    I implore you: LEAVE. NO. DOUBT.

    Obliterate them.

    Rex wants every team's best? Well, render unto Caesar that which is Caesar's.

    Turn them back. And you, Dolfans, you can aid in this. It is the home opener. Rock the orange proudly. Howl your ****ing heads off. And let them know exactly whose house it is.

    LEAVE.
    NO.
    DOUBT.


    See ya Sunday. Bring your A GAME, Dolfans.

    Why howl?

    Because the "Ke Ke Ke Ke click click click" sounds dolphins make in the wild is not going to scare anyone.

    I'm looking forward to howling at the TV, then having my 3 dogs join me in chorus.

    I'm sure I won't look dumb to my wife, at all :)

    I think that was Coach Sparano. The Dolphins gave them to the players on the 1st day of camp.

    I think the whole howling thing at the stadium will be cool, esp if it's supported by a LOT of fans, but if it starts a whole Duran Duran resurgence and they start playing Hungry Like a Wolf on the PA, I may puke.

    Sun Life stadium is going to be such a rabid, ravenous, foaming at the mouth, psycho, madman, whacked out, insane, destructive, have a riot tear down the walls and pillage type of environment on Sunday night. This is going to be awesome!
    Everyday should be Halloween in that stadium with the fans going to the extreme. I love this stuff!
