i agree too but 16 exhibition games ?? come on. thats intentionally low.
just heard on nfln one of the old fins says. "congratulations to the pats for going 16-0 in the exhibition season. now the real season begins" at least he admits they played 14 exhibition games...
Someone tell Mercury Morris we just got the house next door and to get his wedding tuxedo ready cause he's goign to be waiting for his bride
bob kuechenberg is really something. And then shula says the 72 fins players dont celebrate and its overblown. go figure.A few comments from members of the 1972 Miami Dolphins, courtesy of the Dolphins' media relations department:
Tight end Jim Mandich
"My sincerest congratulations go out to the Patriots. In this salary-cap era, free-agency ara, I didn't think it could be done and the Patriots did it. They are a remarkable team. If somebody was going to tie the Miami Dolphins record in the regular season of going unbeaten, it's appropriate that it would be the Patriots because they are a class act."
QB Bob Griese
"I want to congratulate the Patriots on going undefeated during the regular season. I know Tom Brady well because he played at Michigan with my son, Brian. I've followed his career ever since then and have the greatest respect for him as a player. He is having one of the greatest seasons ever by an NFL quarterback, and his outstanding performance has been a major factor in the Patriots' success this year."
Guard Bob Kuechenberg
"They've done a heck of a job thus far but now the exhibition season is over and the real season begins. Obviously, if they can win their first playoff game, beat an even more dangerous Colts team, and then Brett Favre or the Dallas Cowboys in the Super Bowl, I will be the first to take my hat off to them. If they can pull it off, they will have earned it. But my heart is dead set against it. The '72 team is uniquely immortal in American sports and I don't want us to lose that special place. ... Imperfect is mortal. Perfect is immortal."
You guys aren't anticipating the next card the '72 Dolphins are going to play. They'll say, "Yeah, 19-0 is nice... now go 35 years as the only unbeaten team in NFL history. Then we'll be impressed."God, I can't wait to shut them the **** up once and for all. I mean, I agree with Bru, it's just those guys are so friggin annoying.
Sounds like Kuechenberg is a legend in his own mind. Probably afraid his business selling hand-made "Dolphins - last and only undefeated team in history" goes to hell and the shirts end up as carwash rags.here are offical quotes
