it was 1998. Marino got crippled 3/4 the way through the season, and damon huard was put in as qb. he won them enough games to get them into the playoffs.
january 1999. jaguars and dolphins in the playoffs. they start washed up marino in favor of the guy who got them to the playoffs (think of it like belichick starting bledsoe in the playoffs instead of brady in 01).
marino stinks up the joint so bad, throwing pick after pick, untill his defense gives up late in the 2nd quarter. i was screaming the whole time to give the ball to huard. when the score gets into the high 60's, yes, the 60's (due to marinos handful of picks, fumbles, and a tired defense who had been out on the field the whole day), they finally put huard in, in the fourth quarter. he scores 2 tds quickly, and the miami defense shuts the jags down. but it was too late. the record blowout was already done. and miami has been CURSED ever since.
just think- what would have happened to the pats if bledsoe was alowed to stink up the joint after brady got them to the playoffs??
needless to say, i have been a pats fan since that day. i live and breathe pats now.

Yea, that would have been like BB starting Bledsoe in the SB versus the Rams....emagine some Bledsoe fans were actually crying for that too.

62-10, a great game and a fitting Marino legacy

This is known as "bad luck." RAH
I'm glad you saw the light. Patriot converts are always welcome. It's interesting to think what would have happened to Miami if they had simply given the job to Huard so many years ago. He obviously is a capable professional QB. Dolphin history would have been so much different, so much better.

Dude I think you were traumatized that day because you memory is seriously flawed. Huard didn't do crap either. He was 5 of 16 for 45 yards and didn't even sniff the end zone.
Welcome aboard!!! You"re sure not the only bandwagoner here.
screw you, im no bandwagoner. the pats sucked ass in 2000 when i became a fan, and i had no reason to suspect they would not suck ass in the future. i grew up going to pats games with my old man in the old piece of crap stadium, when tickets were as easy to come by as bruins tickets are now. for some reason i just always liked miami, dont know why.
