Just get us to 9-7 this season, 11-5 the next season, and 12-4 a year later, in the SB with 12-4 year an win the SB the following year.

Those would be transparent expectations I could live with!

The Dolphins needed Tony Sparano’s tough-love approach in 2008 when they were turning around a 1-15 team, but the relationship between the players and their coaches got a little contentious in 2011, particularly after the team started the season 0-7. There was no better example of the “us vs. them” mentality than the speech Sparano gave his team after it dropped to 0-6.

As linebacker Kevin Burnett recalled last year: “He said, ‘You know what? If you guys want to lose and be 0-16 and get me out of here, no problem. But guess what? I’m not going to be the only one gone, and that’s just the reality of this business.’”

I think that was being misinterpreted by the PBP because I remember hearing that the players rallyed around Sparano after he said that

You Mad George ?

Nice to see the change in scenery........ Ryan Clark wasnt just talking out of his ***.

"We’re in this together"
That is the attitude we've needed from our staff, and havent had it since atleast the Wanny days.

I thought this portion of the article was interesting as many of us here suspected at the end of 2010 and onward that players were quitting on Sparano.
