Yes? No? Seems ok to me. Seems none of the distractions that were predicted came true......

Our home was a bad place to be a few nights ago.

I dunno.....Seems like a good owner to me......
 
He seems to be catching a lot of flack for nothing.
He is letting the football guys run the football side of things and thats my main concern.
Jimmy Buffet song I could do without but other than that as a FAN I think the rest is fine.
 
He's filling the seats. That's all that matters no?
 
i think he has done a good job. he doesnt interfere with football operations, and they are putting butts in the seats and that is the most important thing.
 
I never understood all the problems others had with him. As long as he leaves football to the football guys, I could really care less how he markets them or generates buzz. In fact, I have already benefitted from his policies by taking advantage of the Dolphins Express for the home opener and I will be going to another the same way.

He's putting fans in the stands and with things like the Dolphins Express, he is making it easy on us too. 69.00 for a ticket, the bus ride and something to eat on the way. Can't beat it. I'm going to shut up now, I sound like a commercial.

Some people just need a reason to complain. It's their lifestyle.

Ross has done a great job. He fills the seats and allows the Trifecta to do their job.

I think he is definitely turning out to be one of the best NFL owners.
 
Would you rather have an idiot like Dan Snyder or Al Davis running the franchise?
 
i've never had a problem with him. he's made some damn good decisions if you ask me.
 
Gets my vote of confidence so far. I just recently moved to the D.C. area and have been listening to Redskins radio here and there. I am so glad we don't have an owner like Snyder. Makes me appreciate the notion of building from the draft and taking a few years to build pieces of a team that will be a contender for a decade instead of a year at a time. Not to mention the atmosphere at Landshark seems better than ever this year.
 
Ross's problem is that he is losing the Marlins as a tenant and that is 81 dates at Landshark Stadium and a lot of money that is leaving him. That and the fact his real estate company recieved bailout money earlier this year and his financial situation and the Dolphins Financial situation isn't good at all. That is why they brought Mike Dee in from the Red Sox to turn things around. Combine that with the Salary Cap going away letting the Robert Kraft, Jerry Jones, Daniel Synder, Woody Johnson's of the world spend spend spend.....and the Dolphins financial situation is bleak.

The celebrity owner thing, who cares. Makes us a bit of a joke but its no big deal. So we sold off the "fight song" and we gotta let some owners sing the national anthem, no big deal.

No that is not what matters. The only thing that matters is the on-field product. That fills the seats not over-rated pop musicians or "game-day experiences". As far as MikeO's bleak financial picture, I hope he's overstating cuz a broke owner could derail things quick.
 
I've never had a problem with him. I think some just didn't like the people he was bringing in because they weren't "cool", but they know they listen to Marc Anthony and Gloria Estefan from time to time...

I listen to SportsTalk 980 too. I love all the animosity the Skins are going through right now.

I've never had a problem with Ross either. Some people are a little too touchy when it comes to public opinion.
