    Just as a reminder of the 2019 Dolphins, good Deadspin writers (just before the mass Petcheskying in fact!) were capturing everyone’s feelings of the team with articles like:

    The Dolphins, a team set up to execute one of the most brazen tanking campaigns in NFL history, were so bad in Week 1 that a handful of players were reportedly calling their agents after the game and begging to be traded. Somehow, Miami was even worse today against the Patriots.

    But for everyone else watching this potentially historic paint-factory fire, it is already the time to ask, “How committed are you to these Dolphins as the worst team ever deliberately foisted upon the nation? How much schadenfreude is permissible before it becomes gratuitous?”

    Flores led that team to a 5-11 record after that start

    That team is a good match for him. He will improve them Bigly if given a free enough hand. It’s going to be good if the front office doesn’t meddle in the draft trying to “create a splash.”

    And if I’m Harbough I look to trade that spot they have for a number 1 and 2 draft of a much lower down team. Get some value. The Vikings have so many needs right now. Defensive offensive. And while the first thought is ditch cousins. He is fine enough. Fix the line, and get some corners and some young pass rushers. The Vikings have the mediocre problem, where they have issues everywhere. But none of them are emergencies. They just need depth and help.

    *Sues Penny Arcade Forums for slander.* Also all forum members are banned from attending Commanders (lol, Danny Boy "Admirals was right there ya dumbass!") games and also must thank me in text messages for my awesomeness.

    Commanders…millions of dollars were spent and they came up with a god awful name

  • H0b0manH0b0man Registered User regular
    Commanders might be a bad name, but at least it's not a slur.

    The logo just being an outline of a W, from what I can tell, is way dumber to me.

    Every time they take the lead or make a comeback in a game, the announcers are going to make a comment about how they're 'taking command of the game'

    It's going to be terrible.

    Terrible, so I guess it's fitting. At least it's not a slur.

    Hopefully there will be justice

    It's the NFL though, so I don't expect much other than nothing

    That’s still in line with what I said because if Flores loses then he is getting blacklisted and maybe even if he wins.

    I hope Flores and whomever joins him (he filed it as class action) wins huge and the NFL is forced to do what it obviously refuses/doesn't do, give everyone a fair chance. But it sucks that it means his days of being an NFL head coach are 100% over due to being blackballed

    It’s so fucking military.

    People are going eat that shit right up.

  • Captain InertiaCaptain Inertia Central OhioRegistered User regular
    Art Shell and Romeo Crennell are the only black coaches I can think of that have ever been hired a 2nd time as HC

    Flores was done the moment he was fired

    Because Washington will never do that
