Does Omar have a drinking problem? This reads like he wrote it on the nod.

The title of that article is too ridiculous to read anything after it..

Ross fell into the same trap a number of owners have in that he believed that fat piece of **** Parcells was actually going to build a winner or cares about a franchise long term. The guy lost it ages ago and was padding his retirement account with that idiotic contract Ross gave him. Now we have finally rid ourselves of the last piece of that horrible decision to employ that tired fat son of a ***** who couldn't have given a crap about this team's long term future. I think Ross made a rookie mistake and he's learned from it. I have new found respect for him, I honestly thought he was going to let Ireland have another draft and we would be hopeless this year. He's getting the benefit of doubt from me. He did exactly what I would have done this offseason so far.

I'm pretty sure Ross gets as many shots as he wants. -
Man, I did not realize how many backers Ireland had in the media. This embarrassing for So Fla.

Wow....Joe Rose is an idiot?
I love listening to Joe Rose. Dude loves our Phins, cuz well.....he played for us. -
I don't understand why people would have a problem with this article. Omar Kelly or not, it's a valid point, and I think something that is valuable to have out there.
Ross has ****ed up a lot, and beyond hiring the wrong guy or not firing someone quick enough. He could be, or is already a major impediment to potential hires. -

Who's Joe Rose?

I agree with the headline 100%.

The fact is that Ross has been the majority owner for the past five years. The Dolphins have not had a single winning season during this time period. So I agree 100% that it is time he proves he is not the major problem with this franchise.
He allowed Ireland to remain in his job two years longer than he should have. He hired Philbin, who so far appears to be a very average NFL HC.
I don't doubt that Ross wants to build a winning team in South Florida. I just don't know if he has what it takes, (other than being a billionaire), to be a successful owner in the NFL. Hopefully his GM selection will help turn this team around, but if not, it will be Ross who will be the person who will be most responsible for any future failures by this team. He will now be the owner who hired the coach he wanted and the GM, and also put Aponte into a position where she has gained a lot of power in the organization.
Ross will certainly deserve the credit if all these personnel moves work out and the team becomes a winner once again. He will also deserve the the lion share of the blame if this team continues to remain nothing but another mediocre team in the NFL.
Right now I am happy Ireland is no longer the GM and I am certainly willing to give Ross the benefit of the doubt. I just hope he doesn't disappoint me again by hiring another mediocre GM for this team. -

While Ross hasn't been perfect, you have to appreciate having an owner who is willing to spend big money and is all about winning. That's more than A LOT of sports fans can say about their team's.

Also a local radio morning show host on 560. He's also a weather-girl creep

I don't believe he scared Parcells one bit. The contract Parcells signed with Huizenga, allowed Parcells to leave his job at any time if Huizenga sold the majority interest in the team to someone else. Included in this contract was a provision which said that Parcells would be paid the entire amount of his contract, even if he decided to leave his job before the contract ran its course.
I don't think Parcells liked working with Ross, so he took all the money and departed the premises. I don't think Parcells being scared of Ross had anything to do with his leaving. How can you be scared of anyone who has to pay you millions of dollars, whether you leave or stay. I think it is more likely that Parcells just didn't like the way Ross was running the organization after Huizenga sold the team to him. -
Why is no blame placed on the minority owners as well?
I'm looking at you, Mark Anthony, JLo, Williams sisters.
Jimmy Buffet also seems to most often sidestep blame.
And why hasn't TPain shown face?
