AFC East or Miami Dolphins forum

**dolphan39** · 03-11-2003, 01:10 PM

What is the consensus amongst Dolphans on whether this forum should be dedicated to discussing issues only about the Miami Dolphins or we should can also discuss things about other AFC East teams ?

As long as it's 'Fins related I don't mind seeing on the boards. Also, I really don't mind seeing a couple of things from other teams on here if it's something that most of us around here would have serious interest in- especially because this is the offseason and things are slow.

IMHO, I'd say that leaving things a little bit more leniant during the offseason would work, but once the season rolls around, there really isn't any room for fans of other teams to post stuff about their teams issues, signings, etc.

I somewhat agree, but I just do not want the Phins forum to turn into a copy of the Yahoo! news page -

- i.e. we should only have signings/cuts/rumors hear (as opposed to General NFL) if it is somehow related to the Phins. I guess I am asking do people think that anything on the AFC East is "somehow related to the Phins" ?

Thanks,

I like the activity level that having a couple of fans from other teams brings to the boards in what would otherwise be a somewhat boring offseason. I think the only problem that you mods might encounter is if the fans of other teams don't get the message that this is strictly an offseason allowance, and it will be revoked onece the preseason begins.

Perhaps is you post a sticky warning people of this it might work, otherwise, I say do what you have to do.

BTW, did you happen to notice that Dan Snyder looks a lot like a younger version of Trent Lott? Hmmmmmm....

I love talking fins! But finding out about THE 1 DIVISON IN FOOTBALL(AFC EAST) would also be good!!

notice that anything outside the AFC East is not an option (on the poll) - that is what General NFL is for.

Snyder looks exactly like this guy Clark I used to work with

Yes 39....

Since the dolphins are in the AFC east, anything that happens in the AFC east relates to the Dolphins. For example Coles being signed to the Skins is Dolphins news because he is leaving a team in our division... Spikes signing with the Bills is another example of indirect Dolphins news... On the other hand, Jake Plummer going to Denver is not Dolphins news because neither team is in our division..

Thats my opion, thanks for listening.

what about a discussion on whether Travis Henry is better than Thurman Thomas hypothetically - that s/b in this forum or Gen. NFL or on the Bills insider

Just playing devil's advocate so we can know where to draw the lines w/o confusing or pissing anybody off.

thanks

I think during the offseason the forum should be open to any discussion NFL related but during the season back to Dolphins related topics...
