Attention Dol-Fans: Stop Your Whining! Marshall Is a Dolphin!

For the entire off-season--no, make that an entire two off-seasons!--Dolphins fans have been whining about "why won't the 'trifecta' get Brandon Marshall or Anquan Boldin?"

And have been just plain whining, period, trying to make their fan-dom the whiniest in the NFL.

And when Boldin went to the Ravens, I could barely stand to go to Dolphins blogs. The noise on the Sun Sentinel Fins blog and the "Daily Dolphin" at the Palm Beach Post was excruciating!

And it was just as bad at a really great Fins blog, "The Phinsider" at SB Nation.

Well, you can stop whining! PLEASE!

PUH-LEEEEAAAZZZZE!

It has been particular deafening since the Jets pulled another "great coup" in landing Santonio Holmes, seemingly robbing the Steelers by sending them a measly 5th rounder. I swear all that can be sworn to, Dolphins fans were achieving apoplexy!

Some were even calling for the heads of Bill Parcells, Jeff Ireland, and Tony Sparano, who make up the afore-mentioned 'Trifecta.'

Never mind this trio helped get Miami from 1-15 in 2007 to 11-5 in 2008. But none of that mattered to many Dol-fans, because the Fins took an expected step backwards to 7-9 in 2009.

This 7-9, by the way, was called by several NFL pre-season prediction experts, including Pete Prisco, predicated on the fact that the Patriots were getting Brady back, that the Dolphins had the league's hardest schedule, and that the Jets now had Rex Ryan and rookie "franchise QB" Mark Sanchez.

Considering the Phins got that 2008 11-5 with the league's easiest schedule and showed they were not quite ready to be prime time players, getting creamed in the Wild Card playoff round by the Ravens, many Dolphin fans couldn't see them going better than 8-8 in 2009...which had they not lost to the sorry Buffalo Bills in the 4th quarter, they would have been.

So, like I said, start loving the 'trifecta' again and stop whining! Marshall is a Dolphin.

Maybe now, those smug Jets fans can lose a night's sleep!

Further, we will see just how great Darelle Revis is in 2010, having to defend not only Moss and Welker twice a year, as well as Lee Evans, but now Brandon Marshall and another great young slot receiver, Davone Bess--and maybe even Teddy Ginn, who seems to have Revis's number.
