And thus ends one of the more frustrating careers in Dolphins history. Ted Ginn, Jr. (can’t forget the “Junior” part, God knows, we drafted his whole family and wouldn’t want Senior to get ignored) was, of course, unwanted by the vast majority of Dolphin fans.  It was assumed, and with good reason, that the Dolphins [...]
