    Tony Sparano almost got one this off-season.
    Chad Henne maybe, might have been considered for one this summer.
    Benny Sapp definitely had one coming.

    When you do your job, but you don't get results...and you don't win...you got to go. You can't nibble on the barrel, you have to pull the trigger.

    Brother Padre, you have been doing the official game threads since week 4 of last season. I started us off last year and was 2-0. I got us off to a fast start, the best in years! This is including, what was at the time, a shocker upset in Minnesota. But after losing a nail biter to the Jests, you were very quick to take the reigns from me.

    And in that time, it has been an extremely tumultous period. 5-8 we finished under your watch. And we are now off to an embarrassing start. Brother, despite a timely and informative job performed, your time has come.

    And with it, so goes the end of the under-achieving and embarrassing ways!

    Phellow Phin Phans...I will start the Game thread this Sunday...and with it, I GUARANTEE VICTORY!!!

    How certain am I ??? So certain, that I am willing to bet exile from these boards forever!!!
    Not me of course, I'm talking about exiling Lucky.

    This will be the FIRST time we beat the Texans in franchise history!
    This will be the game that shocks and confuses the league!
    This will be the end of all our misery!

    My friends...this will be the beginning, of many-many glorious Sundays to come!!!!!!!!

    It's nice that the first time in many years, after a loss, we are optimistic that we can beat a good team like Houston.
    I also see us winning. Houston overconfident coming into our house where we are very pissed off.

    Feel free to set things off S-daddy!

    Was thinking about that exact thing a couple of weeks ago, and was like "how do I ask someone else to do it"?

    By all means Sir, the torch is passed back, if one thinks about it, I started those threads since 09 or so, and have a terrible "luck" factor.

    Make no mistake, my thread will not be anywhere near as informative or articulate as yours. But life is full of compromises...just ask my wife.

    Well... that speech had some Braveheart in it.

    The Made-For-TV version of Braveheart... but Braveheart, nonetheless.

    Actually, that's supposed to be Koa Misi' face. Unfortunately that art medium makes it very difficult to create accurate depictions

    Funny the Mods came down on me for proposing a wager similar to yours, 60 day exile though. I won and guy reneged, Anyway just wanted to let you know that some in here will not follow through on their word and that the Mods look down and do Not approve of this at least with me....

    I'm afraid the Fins are chalking up another lose and Hopefully nobody takes you up on it and if they do ignore them.......

    I hope your right but giving up this wonderful, insightful, and uplifting forum would be foolish to risk especially with no guarantee that the commitment would be fulfilled.......Just letting you know.........can't trust everybody......

    Go Fins........

    I hated padres threads. It was always blah blah blah football blah blah. Seriously, who the hell talks about football during a football game? I'm way to inebriated to talk about football during a football game.

    Barachone mal suerte?

    Heard that was an issue....:shifty:

    :lol:

    But serously, what if the Dolphins turned it around, and won 10+ games consistently? Alcohol sales would plummet in the greater Miami area, and across the US and in places like Bermuda as there would be no need to buy that extra couple of drinks to numb the pain of yet another loss.

    When she dresses them , she says "see they look just like a dog" , and I say ....they actually don't .

    So there are two outcomes:

    1) The Dolphins win.
    2) We get rid of Lucky.

    That my friends is what I consider a win-win for all of us.

    In all due respect to everyone, to me this tread is pointless and petty. Padre is accused of taking over a thread, which I know absolutely nothing about. Then, someone else wants the thread back, claiming to be not as good but, with more luck. I am CONFUSED.

    WHAT THE HELL DOES IT MATTER WHO STARTS THE DAMN THING? Anyone can type "Game Thread" and the response will be the same.

    Is this something for those "rep points" which matter little? I just don't get it.
