Because that's how I feel. Ross just seems like an arrogant prick with a total disregard for every thing.

He has a total disregard for:

1) The fans, who are speaking very loudly these days

2) Tony Sparano, who is twisting in the wind while Ross searches the continent for Sparano's replacement.

3) Jeff Ireland, who is the current GM, but has Carl Peterson hovering over him like a hungry vulture

4) Even the NFL, which has the Rooney Rule in place, which, according to reports, Mr. Ross ignored.

This guy just doesn't give a crap about anything. The saddest part is that this guy is the owner and it's not like someone can just fire him. We could be stuck with Mr. Ross for a really long time.
 
He's no George Steinbrenner, that's for sure. He just bought this team with a tiny liking for football and a huge wallet. A Florida retiree who was born rich and made all his money in NYC. Interesting note in Wikipedia about his philanthropic activities:

"He was on the executive committee of NYC2012, New York’s initiative to bring the summer Olympic Games to New York City in 2012, which failed when London won instead. As a trustee of the Guggenheim Museum (NYC) Ross is involved in the planning for a major renovation of the Frank Lloyd Wright building and other new museums. He is a member of the executive committee and board of directors of the Real Estate Board of New York, a trustee of the National Building Museum and the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation. Ross is also Chairman of the Board of Trustees of Centerline Capital Group, and is a trustee of the National Building Museum and the Jackie Robinson Foundation, and longtime supporter of the UJA Federation of New York.

WOW. He seems to give New York a lot of charity. And it sounds like his next donation to NYC is the destruction of the Dolphins.
