This is the 2nd in a thirtysomething-part series.
Basketball:
Not only are they 2006 NBA Champions, but their team name doesn't end in S. Take that plurality conventions! Plus, they're so good, they've retired #23 for Michael Jordan, even though he never played for the Heat.
Hockey:
The Florida Panthers have never won a Stanley Cup, but they were founded in 1993, just in time to be featured in NHL '94 for Sega Genesis. Which was a really awesome game.
Baseball:
The Florida Marlins are clearly the best team in baseball. Since starting in 1993, the Marlins have won 2 World Series. Plus, they did it with 2 completely different rosters. And true to form, they dismantled their roster after their '03 win. They're so good they don't even need to win their division. Ever. And they've never lost a playoff series. The Yankees can't say that. Obviously the Marlins are better than the Yankees.
Football:
Miami may be awesome in Basketball, Hockey and Baseball, but Football is not their strong suit. In the last 30 years exactly how many Super Bowls have the Dolphins won? Zero. For shame. Plus the Dolphins have only won one game this year. And wins against the Titans shouldn't count. Although, neither should wins against the Dolphins.
Part One: Detroit
Yeah, but the Dolphins were the last perfect team in the NFL (or the only perfect team, I don't know). Doesn't that count for something? And because of their perfection, they get together to drink champagne when they know their record will live on.
ReplyDeleteI had this awesome post ready to go in response to this funny blog entry about how I lambasted some stupid b because she thouht that Florida could compare to the greatness that is illinois but then I tried to 'publish' it, but it didnt publish and was lost. I am too lazy to type it up again, but basically look at each states famous presidents we got Lincoln and the emancipation proclimation she has Andrew Jackson and the Trail of Tears. Essentially Florida has culture of the deep south with a shitty veneer of retirees. I guess the have cubans which is cool, but not enough. In conclusion, Florida is not that sweet. Thank you.
