Why We Must Boycott The Miami Dolphins
It breaks my heart, I have always liked the team. When my sister was a kid she had a Bob Griese jersey. But some things I just cannot tolerate. I can stand supporting some one with different political beliefs, but not when they stoop to such low tactics.

The owner of the Miami Dolphins paid for an ad comparing Democratic Senate candidate Betty Castor to bin Laden.

Do not buy any Dolphins paraphernalia. Do not attend Dolphins home games. I would discourage you from attending your teams home game if they are playing the Miami team. Do not watch Dolphins games on t.v. Give me time I will look into this further to look into Miami dolphins sponsors so we can threaten to boycott them.

2. Ol' Wayne got rich with Blockbuster Video
Edited on Sun Oct-31-04 09:46 AM by desi
Was he part of the Cuban Mafia? How and where did he get the funds to launch Blockbuster? If a boycott is in order it should be heavily concentrated on his bread and butter. If research shows that he still owns or has huge holdings in Blockbuster this family will be looking for their DVD's and CD's from other vendors. I don't want to start any rumors so if my info is not correct please feel free to correct it.

on edit: Wayne sold Blockbuster to Viacom in 1994
