There was this wonderfully ridiculous juxtaposition during the Debacle of the Disappearing Dolphins on Sunday.
The team’s cheerleaders incongruously were all smiles on the sideline, shaking pom-pons and hip-shimmying in red-velvet Santa outfits to a Hard Rock Stadium gone silent except for the booing. Ryan Tannehill’s intercepted pass returned for a touchdown late in the embarrassment of this 17-7 loss had ended Miami’s home finale and its last breath of any hope for a postseason.
The Grinch stole the playoffs.
He might also have stolen Tannehill’s Dolphins future on Sunday.
