Ever since Bill Parcells came here and hired Jeff Ireland it seems that the organization has adopted this philosophy to only address the media
(ie' us the fans) when required by the NFL. They stopped having press conference for newly signed players and they almost NEVER address the fans to explain their Plan and\or Philosophy. It seems to me as though they feel like they don't OWE us an explanation of WHY they're doing what they're doing or NOT doing! They're not in a position to be this arrogant. The team sucks and has sucked since they've been here with the exception of one 1st round playoff exit. Bill Belicheck can have this philosophy because his teams are consistantly good. Thats not the case with us and THIS HAS TO STOP! The ONLY way to stop it is for us FANS to take a stand and show Mr Ross that we DEMAND ANSWERS! They can't keep running a garbage azz team out on the field and expect us to continue to spend our money on this CRAP And The ONLY way for us to be heard is to STOP SPENDING OUR HARD EARNED MONEY! We can call sports talk radio shows or come on Finheaven and complain but they don't care about that as long as we continue to spend our money. So How about we STOP GOING TO GAMES, STOP PAYING $30 FOR PARKING, STOP PAYING $5.00 FOR A HOTDOG AND $.5.00 FOR A CUP OF BEER OR SODA AND STOP BUYING DOLPHINS MERCHANDISE! WHEN THEY SHOW THE HIGHLIGHTS OF THE DOLPHIN GAMES LETS MAKE IT LOOK LIKE A MARLINS GAME WITH 7,000 PEOPLE IN THE STANDS, I PROMISE YOU IF WE DO THAT, THE NATIONAL MEDIA WILL TAKE NOTICE AND IT'LL BE ALL OVER SPORTS CENTER, NFL NETWORK AND EVERYWHERE ELSE. I GUARANTEE YOU IF WE DO THAT, THEY'LL CHANGE THEIR DISREPECTFUL WAYS.

Looks like Fins fans are already doing that by recent attendance numbers...they need to win period, Ross does enough media pandering himself, he announces all his moves before he makes them, which probably makes Ireland's job much harder than it should be

I stopped buying their stuff several years ago. Everyone else needs to do the same and get their point across to Ross!!!

I know exactly what a paragraph is, i'm posting from my phone and don't have time make grammer edits! Damn English Teachers ;-0
 
I have.

I refused to spend any money on anything Dolphins related.

Gave up season tickets before last year and it was the best decision I ever.

Ended up paying $5 a month for Redzone....Well worth it.

I don't think I'll ever renew season tickets.

Not enough fans are doing it though, I think there were only two games where Ross or someone other company had to purchase tickets. And I don't want to hear from Ross, he's the owner and Most owners will only tell us what they think the fans want to hear. I'd much rather ireland or philbin come out and tell us what the plans are. I do know this, Irelend said that Priority # 1 was to find a QB to get us over the hump and so far he hasn't done that! Free Agency is over so we're going to find our QB in the draft? Maybe that's his plan, if so just come out and say so.

We need More fans need to be like you, then maybe we'll get some respect.
 
If the fans don't show up they will move the team to LA......the LA Dolphins? LA Sharks? This is where we are heading. Ross and Ireland are Dumb and Dumber, Abbott and Costello, Laurel and Hardy. Other NFL players are laughing at Miami and saying nobody wants to play for the Phins. Perception becomes reality.

Many fans down here aren't going to be paying for a horrible product run by a bunch of morons.

Sorry. We don't have unlimited money to waste anymore.
 
Obviouslly my decision to not get Sunday Ticket this year wont directly impact the Dolphins but I am for sure not spending $300+ on this team
 
I hate this whole silent approach thing their doing. And the funny thing is... they think their being smart about it. You don't need to keep all of the things you do HORRIBLY WRONG on the hush hush. The fans see though it and are quite frankly sick and tired of it. I know I sure am. No more money coming from my pockets.

Pfft. I will attend a game and purchase Sunday Ticket. Getting RedZone may be some people's thing, but not mine.

New Coach New Philosophy. Don't like it? Head east with the other fair weather fans down there in FL. NE and the NYJ seem to be the fad for some.
