I haven't been following the Jonathan Martin story as closely as I should be since I've been kinda busy the past few days. I've been getting a lot of info here. What are the actual facts of this story? Was there a voicemail? Is this speculation? What is speculation and what's documented? Cause its all bleeding into one big ole pile to me. Thanks!
Spare yourself the agony, you may be better keeping out of it. It's just going to give you a headache. Bigger than any headache during this Organization's dreadful post-2004 history. (its sad I can't include 2001-2003, when we had poor coaching on a possibly super bowl caliber team that got dominated in the playoffs then failed to make it during 2 years they should've been SB contenders...because those are glory years in comparison to what has been happening since then).
What's happening is your sig may finally happen. Gm. coaches. front office. Done. Whatever you heard, you don't even know the half.
I didn't say that. In fact if I were betting that's not the bet I would make. Suffice to say that Ross did the right thing letting the NFL do the investigation privately because this would look 10x worse if it came out as a cover up a year from now. Buckle up and get ready for trolls though. Once this goes national...and it will...they will be here. This is going to suck when the media grab the real stories. And that's putting it lightly.
A few weeks after the Hurricanes are done with their scandal, the Dolphins start investigations for their own. Oh to be a Miami fan.
Jesus man. You make it sound like we're hiding a murderer in our locker room. When will all of this go down? Soon?
No murderers. No one got hernandez'ed. Depends how quickly the media finds out. It will not be over quick tho. I'm off to try and get sleep.
Presuming there is a lot more , we'll hear about it within 24 hours I would think . Oh boy , more fun for dolfans.
Well we have a game on Monday night, a chance to climb over .500 and boost our chances of getting the 6th seed. Aaaaaaaand we're all discussing a soap opera about two guys who won't even be playing. I pray the team doesn't lose focus as easily as their fans do.
You know I'm right there with you, but with the way Boik is talking right now. It sounds like a major disaster is about to happen. I'm not going to lie, I'm scared ****less right now.
I liked Wake's answer last week so I'm assuming he spreads that around for the guys that are playing.
Geno Atkins is out for the year. That's a disaster. Losing Incognito and Jon Martin is more of a minor inconvenience. It's not like we were depending on great OL play to win games anyway. This is an opportune time for critics to swoop in and take shots at the team but ultimately it'll be what happens on the field that determines how the story is written. Win and the media will write about how the steel willed Dolphins rallied around Philbin and overcame adversity. Lose and the it'll be the spineless coach who can't control his locker room and the hapless GM pissing away the owners FS dollars. Another media driven B movie. All that's missing is the watered down soda and stale popcorn.
Well said. I think actually playing in the games might provide the players some relief from the circus. That might be cause for some optimism. Slight optimism.
Since this story began last week I've been banging the drum of the team being pissed about how they're being perceived publicly, rallying together, and kicking ***. I'm just saying though, if this story gets worse and worse and people have to be fired or suspended or cut, I don't know what to think. Though I still agree with one major thing: Just. Win.
Yea. Fire everyone, I don't care at this point. Just win. We're so close, especially if Tannehill can turn the corner.
Every report is true, every single one. Your assignment today is to read them all and post a 10,000 word essay on what you found.
The Club info is not public info so it cant be discussed in the public forum. Hint....the baby is not going out with the bathwater.The tub is.
Im sure this is all about how Cogs was asked to toughen up Martin. Wonder who our new coach and GM will be. Interim hc? Sent from my SPH-L710 using Tapatalk 2
Drama, drama, drama. People in the know are blowing this thing up like it's going to be bigger than the Saints "bounty gate" i just don't see it getting that big regardless of what comes out.
Lol..some how I think hes gonna be gone. Maybe ser Carl Peterson step in as interim GM...Kevin Coyle as interim HC. Sent from my SPH-L710 using Tapatalk 2
Remember when aaron Hernandez killed some people? Yeah it's worse than that. Sent from my LG-MS770 using Tapatalk 4 Beta
This potentially incoming news, if viewed through a calm, objective and rational prism, would show that really no one involved is an evil monster on either side, just a few mistakes were made. The problem is, we're dealing with fans and the press, nether of which are calm, objective and rational. The fans are a confused and angry and the press will continue to guide the narrative in a way that stokes the anger and confusion, because that's in their best interest. I hope at least some remember this going forward, but I'm probably hoping for too much.
Im sure. But..being what we have for a society today..probably Ross best thing to do..is to just drop the axe fast. Dont let the ****storm build. It sucks..but Im getting the sense this is about to look very ugly. Sent from my SPH-L710 using Tapatalk 2
I understand why its in Club ...but lets not appear to be using this as a mechanism to generate revenue. Sent from my SPH-L710 using Tapatalk 2
Ok..so..for discussion purposes...really..how soon could we be looking at interim coaches and a GM? Sent from my SPH-L710 using Tapatalk 2
