  To bad we can't go back in time to see how many illegal things Don's Dolphins were up to.

  I guess they were just selling girl scout cookies and playing football?

... In case anyone was wondering if the 72 Dolphins are officially sweating their place in NFL history, we got the answer this week as Don Shula (who coached that Dolphins team) came out of his self-imposed media hiatus to wave a finger at the Patriots and the validity of their 2007 accomplishments: ...

Shula -- A Patriots Season Would Need an Asterisk
Published 11/6/2007 by HM at Hoops and Other Pop Culture
http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/news/story?id=3097057As Rachel Green (or Greene) stated to Ross on friends, "My mother kept saying to me, 'Once a cheater always a cheater'." Shula apparently abides by the same theory.

Just Saying, Is All...Chasing Perfection with Don Shula
Published 11/8/2007 by Ryan Alberti at Bleacher Report
... You have to feel for Don Shula this week, because only a heap of hurt could make a 77-year-old resort to name-calling in the national press. When the ex-Dolphins coach launched a preemptive strike against the New England Patriots on Tuesday, he didn’t just light another fire under Bill Belichick’s hoodie—he proved that even Hall-of-Famers get the existential blues. ...

... , including a win last season 21-0, which also coincidentally is the Patriots last regular season loss. The Patriots also have Don Shula’s comments from earlier this season , where he stated that if the Pats go undefeated, they should have an asterisk attached to their record due to Spygate, to use for any additional motivation.  Getting back to the records, I don’t feel that all of the records I mentioned will be broken. I do think that Jason Taylor will start, but will be severely limited due to his injured left foot. The Patriots will become the first team to reach 15-0 in ...
