Blind homerism doesn't make for a good arguement either.

There is a big difference between Wanny and Sporano. Wanny won with Jimmy Johnsons players and Sporano has been winning with his players. So based on your logic we are to gut the entire team again and start over. Talk to me in 3 years and I "hope" you have it right.
i wish people would stop posting bs speculation
While I don't disagree we should part with Sparano, there are a couple good reasons for keeping Sparano as head coach:
1) He has full support of the players. Players have been pointing fingers left and right but it's pretty unanimous that they think Tony is a great coach. And this has come from players like Marshall who have been on other teams and played for several coaches.
2) We saw the transformation of the defense from poor to great without replacing Sparano, so it would be logical to give Tony the chance to do the same with the offense this offseason.
3) He didn't hire Henning (main problem with this year's team) or Pasqualoni (main problem with last year's team), and the failed draft picks (including Henne) aren't on him. He could make a good case that he is doing the best with the cards he was dealt.

Then what would you read?
I like Sparano- But he did not make any moves this season or last During the season that needed to be made. After the 3rd game I could see Henne wasn't the answer. Everyone on this board says Henning did a horrible job. Dc last year was fired too late as well. He seems to want to not make waves or is absurdly loyal to these people, either way his vision seems too clouded to be allowed to continue.
I'm not being a blind homer. I recognize the team needs to make changes, the cheif change being Henning. I don't think Sparano is the problem, and I hope Ross is a smart man with perspective who realizes winning championships will sell more tickets and merch than a coaching hire. Because by removing Sparano, it would only possibly give a short term bump in attendance, but once the new coach puts out a mediocre product due to all the changes he'll probably make, you pessimistic fans will turn on that hire as well. Our best chance at becoming a championship team is by keeping Sparano in place and allow him to continue to improve this team.
People don't want to give Sparano any credit for the defense, but they want to give him all the blame for everything that's went wrong this year. Keep in mind TS hired Mike Nolan, and him and Ireland stocked the defensive personnel. He did not hire Henning, and our offense hadn't been a problem until this year.
Based on the one year turnaround our defense was able to make, I would like the same guys in charge of the offensive turnaround.
It's not blind homerism, it's something us intellectually superior would like to refer to as logical thinking.
They can kiss my support good bye if this happens. There is no justifiable reason for keeping Sparano as head coach. None.
where were all of you guys who are against Sporano when we won the division after going 1-15?
To all of you that dont want to give the dolphins your support if sparano stays . please do so . i dont want to see you here in 2011 . i love the dolphins .
