A quick Blogpulse chart showing buzz on my hometown sports teams yields some interesting results. The Miami Dolphins seems to be the talk of the town even as we see the NFL season coming to a close. It reminds me of my Dad who always laments that “baseball will never get a decent base following because all Miami can talk about is the Dolphins.”
The two spikes you see for the Dolphins are of course in correlation to the New England Patriots quest for a perfect season. (Note: 1972 Dolphins are the only perfect season in the NFL) The Miami Heat spike comes from the trade of Shaquille O’Neal to the Phoenix Suns for Shawn Marion.
Woefully, the Marlins hardly register in buzz talk. With the stadium deal close to being signed and all the offseason trades there is hardly a peep from the blogosphere. I guess it goes to show “father knows best.”
