"The sweet memories of perfection are still best served with a glass of champagne, and the 1972 Miami Dolphins shared a Dom Perignon toast while being honored during halftime of the Dolphins' home finale against the Cincinnati Bengals.
The NFL named the 17-0 1972 Dolphins the greatest team in NFL history as a part of its "NFL 100 Greatest" series. Many of the surviving members of the 1972 Dolphins were at Hard Rock Stadium on Sunday to be honored, including coach Don Shula, fullback Larry Csonka, quarterback Bob Griese, receiver/returner Mercury Morris, offensive lineman Larry Little and defensive back Dick Anderson."

"There is still a great joy for many of those 1972 Dolphins whenever the last undefeated team goes down. There's something about being the only perfect team that makes that season even more special.
"See this ring here ... It means out of the 100 years in the NFL, there's only been one team that has been able to go from A-to-Z and not miss a step," Morris said. "Our back-to-back run started from nothing. It ended up being everything."
Fans joined in singing an early "Happy Birthday" to Shula, the NFL's winningest coach, who will turn 90 on Jan. 4."
