Me too. Years later I met the Dolphins when I lived at Boystown in Kendall Florida. We played softball with the team and built a BMX track for a genuine circuit at the time. One day 4 kids were chosen to visit Tim Foleys home and I was one of them. We all had dinner together and swam in their pool with their kids. Tim also owned a fitness center called "Sportrooms" wich he freely shared with his beloved extended children.
I bet you was ..I was a kid in green bay when they won they're first two Superbowls it was a great time...then I moved to new York in 1969 when the jets won. That was a great time too. And then somehow winded up in Pittsburgh for they're 4 super bowls
Football in1966 wasn't the big deal it is today, companies weren't falling over themselves to be associated with NFL teams. The games didn't sell out and the owners generally tried to do everything on the cheap, including flying with no-name airlines.
I loved Don Shula and those early 70s Dolphin teams. Upon reflection and analysis, they accumulated 17 wins against a lot of unimpressive teams. They didn't beat a team that finished with a winning record during the regular season. Still an unbelievable accomplishment.
You need to revisit that, during the undefeated season there were 5 teams with a winning record including playoffs and of course they beat those teams.
Someday Beli-Cheat will probably eclipse Shula's record of 347 wins, but he's no Shula. Shula did it in 33 years - Beli-Cheat's going on his 49th year. Most of Shula's wins were during 14 game seasons, not 16 game seasons. Once Shula became a head coach he was never busted back down to being a coordinator like Beli-Cheat was. Every team Shula coached he took to a superbowl. Shula was never caught cheating either. Beli-Cheat's no Shula. Not even close.
Miami was a distant 2nd choice for an AFL team. The AFL had reached an agreement with Atlanta that just needed to be signed. When Pete Rozelle and the NFL found out, they rushed down to Atlanta, negotiated and completed the deal to secure Atlanta to their league. The AFL then turned to Miami.
It's to bad...with Ricky Williams and the best D Miami ever fielded had Dave Wan'Stache drafted Drew Brees in 2001 instead of Jamal Fletcher in the 1st round the Phins would have won a couple Super Bowls
Hey!! You forgot to mention that after the Dolphins beat the Bears on MNF in 1985, they failed to show up for the rematch in Super Bowl XX. Why? Because they choked in the rain at The Orange Bowl vs the NE Patriots in the AFC Championship 31-14.
Wow, to think they were only making $50k a year. Even in today's money that is only $381,123.99. I say "only" because look at the salaries mediocre QB's are making today..., and it is guaranteed money. And shame on the NFL for not taking care of the players who played in the NFL when it actually allowed rough tackling - even allowing the QB to be hit. Can't blame them for jumping to another league that paid better. I absolutely loved the Dolphins back in those early days.
Its about revenue. Jersey sales/ticket sales/overall marketing. You can only pay what you bring in to be sustainable. Look at the WNBA, it’s non profitable, in theory without the NBA it would’ve been shut down years ago. Now days the NFL can pay these players all this money and that one name brings in that money for the franchise and the NFL plus some.
That fish tank looks so small for that Dolphin, we now know how intelligent they are, it must have been torture, reminds me of the gorilla in the supermarket in Tacoma Wa
Even though I'm from Pittsburgh and by birthright a Steelers fan the Fins have always been my other favorite team since 1980 when I was 11.When the Fins and Steelers play I always root for the Fins.I'll be a Fins fan till I die
Yeah but it's all irrelevant unless you go all the way no one will remember you for 18 wins unfortunately. Different times though can't really compare 😅
@@FrakintheboX if your not trying to gain every advantage then u can not win. You can know every play from film studying to audible tip offs. You still have to get 11 dudes to pull in the SAME direction. 60 man on roster for example...We only go as fast as our SLOWEST TEAMMATE. Winning 9 AFC championships and 6 S.B rings is not a fluke. If it was cheating then I have doubts about that much and long term success.
From Bledsoe to Brady with an undefeated reg season and Matt Cassel taking the helm and winning 11 games happened because the coaching staff taught discipline, basic skills and a belief in the system. Coach Belichick is 71 years old now and his strategy is 35 years old. All dynasties rise.....then FALL.

I was a kid in South Florida when the Dolphins won the Super Bowl in the early 70's. It was a great time.

Same
1972 and 1973 they won
I was 15 and I still remember that whole season. The only game they lost was game 4 in the preseason.
Dan Marino still has the greatest arm I've ever seen. The release, the speed, the distance. He's got it all.
You didn't see Namath?
Zero Super Bowl rings
So who cares lol all you fake nfl fans always hang on to that stuff just like Skip bayless all your comment did was make your opinion irrelevant
I already have this on DVD-great telling of the dolphins history, especially the undefeated season in 1972 😊😊😊😊😊
I was there thru all of this! Actually, starting in 72. Great film!
Very 1st touch of a brand new team went 95 yds to tha house...unbelievable!!!
So did the saints
@@rat454bird and...???
@@stevennewman8276😂
love seeing what it was like back then and now see how a new team of dolphins making a new chapter in this era of nlf. FINSUP!!!!
*Awwesome documentary especially the origin of the Dolphins, the undefeated season, and when Dan Marino played.*
That Anderson INT return against the Colts in 1971 was poetry in motion. Dolphin defenders were plain laying guys OUT with perfect blocks.
The dude in Oakland picked the wrong guy to piss off in Manny Fernández. I heard Manny wrestled alligators in the off-season for recreation.
Need to update this after this 2023 season !! #FINSUP
hard knocks hasn't disappointed yet.
I’m A Dolphins Super Fan, I Just Wish We Win Championship
What an arm. Danny Marino. ❤
I don't understand why National Airlines or Eastern Airlines, both out of Miami, FLA. wouldn't jump at the chance to transport the team.

Pre-deregulation.
@@vandrive5687 What? Had nothing to do with that.

Be crazy if they won it this year for the 50th anny of the last title team. They've got a shot

This docu is great
I was wondering if the dolphins makes the playoffs this year, Can we see All or Nothing the season of Miami Dolphins ? #NFL #AmazonPrime
55:43 Ref bites the dust.
Why did they play in Pittsburgh in AFC championship game when Miami was undefeated
home field advantage wasn't a thing until 1974 or 1975 they used to rotate home field by division
😂😂😂😂 very good question!!!!!!!! If you find out please post it 🌴😎🐬🏈
Playoffs were a rotation system. It was a joke!
The football coach of the dolphins kinda looks like Jay Garrick from the flash.
Been watching the fins since 1981
Even though I'm from Pittsburgh and by birthright a Steelers fan the Fins have always been my other favorite team since 1980 when I was 11.When the Fins and Steelers play I always root for the Fins.I'll be a Fins fan till I die
Ace Ventura Pet Detective
I’m a fin fan from 1981
39:16. Typical raider fan lol.
thought the same thing lol
😂😂😂😂🌴😎🐬🏈
DAN MARINO IS THE GOAT! FACT'S! DOLPHINS FOOTBALL FOREVER!
TUA TIME MFers lol!!!! fins up!
Paul Warfield best receiver ever? I guess you’ve never heard of a guy named Jerry Rice. lol.
Despise this team!!!! Best thing happen to Shula is lose Super Bowl III ..only player I give respect Dan Marino who never had a D.
Must be a bills or Jets fan. Hey thanks for watching though 😅
Obviously...Cant even write a proper sentence..@@guylewis477
😊
rent free. fins up, p*ssy
the 07 Patriots got 18 straight victories.
Yeah but it's all irrelevant unless you go all the way no one will remember you for 18 wins unfortunately. Different times though can't really compare 😅
With the help of these. 🎥🎥🎥They'd been doing it for 7 straight years.

It sure wasn't cheating. Simply the best franchise to have dominated the game. Out of all the dynasties the Pats are alone
The first Pro Football Team in S FL was the Miami Seahawks! Think they played two or three seasons... The coach was caught embezzling money. lol
