This is supposed to be a cool online sports fansite for fans of the Miami Dolphins, but this site is way below what it should be. Read more…

How does the site look? This parameter evaluates the overall design and gives extra points for any innovative techniques.
Cute Logo!
The dolphin logo is cute but the site is certainly not.
The major problem, as always with online Flops, is the design. The Home Page is a cluttered mess of text and side bar links, though the Dolphin logo is nice.

Navigation: 2/10

How easy is it to navigate around the site? We tried and tested it out and graded.

This is all pretty straightforward – users can easily navigate from A to B by clicking on the side bar that leads to news, history and chat boards.
Support: 2/10

Can you contact the site with queries? This grades the email support and telephone contacts available to users.
Phins.com IS NOT the official website of the Miami Dolphins and we have very little direct contact with the team. There's no support here except an email feedback form.
Social Options: 2/10

How interactive is this site? Is there a Facebook Group? Twitter? RSS feeds? Linked In? We found out.
Another opportunity missed – yes, it has a chat board, RSS feed, but no Facebook, nio fan pics or fan videos.
Heart Factor: 2/10

How sports mad is this site? How crazy are they about sports? Extra points will be given for sites that are almost obsessive about their topics..

You have to say they love the Dolphins and the NFL, but they just need to make this site better.
Nerd Factor: 5/10

How many stats are on this site? We graded quality, detail and scope of stats, historical league info and facts.
Great for nerds, it offers a roster, schedule and detailed history of all Dolphins games. So plenty of stats here for nerds to enjoy.
Fun Factor: 3/10

Ok, how fun is this site? Are there games on offer? Does it do stupid things to photos? Run stupid competitions? We gave extra points for craziness.
Apart from the chat and the fan shop, there's no interaction with fans, no fun for fans. Needs expanding to include more entertainment options.
News Topicality: 1/10
  • 1

Why is it different to other sports sites? We graded originality and innovation.
The news wire is misleading, it takes you to a kind of forum where American sports fans post nonsensical rumors rather than good news stories. Plus the news articles section is currently empty and takes you to a one-line bio of the columnists.
Multimedia Options: 1/10
  • 1
  • 2
  • 3
  • 4
  • 5
Is the news up-to-date? We calculated the number of updated, relevant and quality news stories from fans perspective..
Just RSS news feeds, nothing else worth mentioning here like video or audio.
Innovation: 2/10

  • 5
What else can I do here? We gave extra points to sites with RSS feeds, video, HD, mobile and audio.
In comparison to other American Sports Online sites, even other Dolphin fan sites like the brilliant dolfanatic.com this site is really poor. If you love the Dolphins, swim elsewhere.
