Mike & Mike are full of ****. They are trying to get ratings. Believe me, they don't really think this way. They know what's up...

 

Who cares what the national media thinks?

I agree it's not an ideal situation, but it is what it is and Ross is doing what he feels he needs to do for the future of the franchise.

 

They don't get it, do they?

The players already don't respect the coaching staff. Have they not seen the quotes coming out from the players?

What they don't understand is that while we are trying to get better, we are making sure we have a backup plan in place.

How many times does a team try and trade for a QB when they already have a QB on the roster? It happens all the time. This is no different. We are looking for a better coach while we have one on the roster.

What is worse...doing what Ross is doing or doing like Houston & Jags are doing where they tell the coach you have 1 year to get it right or else? Jags year in and year out are going to fire Del Rio, yet they end up bringing him back. Now he has the ultimatum....playoffs next year or you are fired. How is that for the team?

Iyam...we are already screwed up. We either stay screwed up for 1 more year or we bring a guy in with some medicine to fix us. I say the latter is the way to go and you do whatever you have to do to make that happen. If that means a little hurt feelings here or there, so be it.

 

No one has ever accused Belichick of being classy either.

 

Since there may not be a 2011 season, who cares. CBA is the most important thing right now.

 

Classless my ***, are you a fan or not? if not the Jest forums are that way ---> http://forums.newyorkjets.com/

Ross is doing what has to be done, love it or leave it. I love it it sends a message to Sparano and at the same time its handling business. I prefer Cowher but any "good" change will do.

 

I have no doubt Ross informed Sparano Monday that he would be courting other coaches. People act like Sparano had no clue what was going on, I just hope its all over come Saturday.

 

Exactly.

 

There is a "Jest" forum? Cool!

 

I believe that as well. He told him, you are our coach right now but we are also going to be looking at some other options.

 

Sorry, gonna agree here. Ross is acting in a classless manner. Tony should be cut or his tenure affirmed, not strung along as a fall back if something else doesn't pan out.

 

its just business & had Sparano taken care of business
when he had the opportunity none of this would be going down.
Ross is a good thing for the franchise, Sparano is not

 

I'm not sure how classless it all is but the Dolphins sure do look foolish.

 

Wonder is anyone thought the Phins were classless when Sparano cut all those players before the season....or put Will Allen on injured reserve before he really needed to.

Sparano knows and has known what is going on.


Its business....Im behind Ross 100% on this. We dont need a weenie for an owner. We need someone who is willing to cut it loose to make our team Champions!!!

 

Why? How do you know whats on page two? How do you know what arrangements Ross has with Sparano? What if Sparano is fine with the whole thing?

And if Harbaugh is as good a coach as I think he is....we wont look foolish for very long.

And beside...Ill take how foolish this looks....vs how foolish we looked only winning 1 game at home all year , any day and twice on Sundays

 

Umm...I heard we RESIGNED a third string QB??? I didnt know that that guy and the other OL resigneee were even on this team!!!!

 

Greenbi*ch is a jests fan...that about sums it up...

 

Ultimately that is the goal and I think people forget this...You do not get style or respect points for 15th place, let alone 2nd place...Belichick, etc give two ****s what respect is; their goal is to win. Sickening to hear all this bs about respect and what the classy move is. In business you earn it with results and if you fail, then there is a replacement. This gentleman is a billionaire for a reason, he got results, whereas Mike&Mike are not. Respect your family, friends, and people in general, but know that the business world largely gives two ****s.

 

Hey how did Sporano get his job in the first place, it was handed to him by Parcells, did not have to compete.
He was a nobody in the NFL, Ross paid a billion for this team and I'm glad he is doing what he can to turn this team around.
Nobody feels bad for Ross inheriting this Parcell mess, and still paying Parcells salary and Sporano is collecting his.
Nobody cares about the stadium being half empty while the other half is filled by the visiting teams fans.
**** these guys Ross is doing the right thing and as a fan he has my support, what this regime has done is fleece the team and the fans.

 

Has nay of these douche bags in the press said a word about how classless Parcells has been by turning his back on the team and his owner when they needed him most.
What we saw this season was Toni's coaching ability without Parcells telling him what to do.
Meanwhile NFL network is doing Parcell's Documentary on his career without including the Fins complete failure.
Parcells and his hand picked buddies are still getting paid.

 

Doing WHAT?

Thats the point...you are assuming you know what is going on....you dont know anything. Your taking everything the media is saying and running with it....

And...uh...yeh...other coaches will listen to an owner who is hands off and willing to sign a big check.

How many times did Billy Martin get hired and fired by Steinbrenner?

We win....this wont even be a memory

 

I think you are missing the point...In stating: "This gentleman is a billionaire for a reason," I was alluding to the fact that he knows what it takes to run a successful business. You are saying all the NFL owners are billionaires and that is a fair point, however the big difference is some care about winning and some do not. He is doing what it takes to build a winner no matter the cost and criticism from people such as Mike&Mike. One need only look and compare our very own Marlins' owner (and many MLB owners for that matter) and compare him to George Steinbrenner. I think you can see the point that I am driving at.

 

LOL, as comical as it sounds he is engaging in something called marketing. When the team is successful, he will turn a grand profit with this marketing in leaps and bounds compared to other successful franchises. Look at Patriot Place and you will see; more or less the same premise.

 

Having Sparano hanging on a leash whilst Ross goes looking for his replacement just makes me feel uncomfortable. Maybe im too sentimental but it just dont feel right. Its a strange situation.

 

I'm sentimental about Parcells getting paid and cry for sporano picking up 3 million.
If this is so offensive why doesn't sporano quit and go get a job.

 

It could have a negative affect in the offseason. If I were a FA, I wouldn't want to come to this organisation right now. The situation needs to be dealt with quickly so we can continue to go about our business

 

You really think Ross is comical by trying to fix what he inherited, by trying to put fans in the seats by getting the best coach available.
I love what he's doing.

 

Alot of people in the coaching community wouldnt agree. Im pretty sure we will get Harbaugh but IF we dont then you seriously dont think it makes us look foolish? No way do we keep Sparano after the way we are dealing with getting a HC. We should just give Sparano his cards and move on without the Sparano question mark hanging over this whole soap opera.
