Today is all about the 1972 Miami Dolphins, who not only won the Super Bowl but became the only NFL team to ever go undefeated. Thanks to Richard Nixon being slightly preoccupied, they never got that trip to the White House, which Barack Obama will remedy this afternoon when he hosts the team for a reception.
While so many sports fans have grown a bit weary hearing about the 1972 Dolphins, we can't help but think that's because they haven't looked at them lately. The 1972 Dolphins looked just like your dad! And you can't hate on dad.
See what we mean?
