I was a fan in the mid 60's, remember in Orlando seeing a team on the black and white portable in the lanai and asking my big brother about it. He told me it was a new team from Miami called the "Dolphins." We moved up to the north shore of Boston in 68 and my short lived devotion to the Dolphins was beaten out of me by the neighborhood kids, lol
My shallow devotion to the Packers and and Yankees quickly left as well, you see in those days huge swaths of america didn't have geographical alliances to any teams, so you hopped on the more successful teams' bandwagons. Although a die hard Pats fan, I will always hold respect for the Dolphins and their storied tradition. So many good players, the Sundance Kids come to mind, Kiick and Czonka, right?
