I know this is beating a dead horse but if we don't make a change of significance then next year we will be a joke. I hope Steve Ross reads this. I doubt he will. We need someone with fire and emotion. If Philbin can't make the players play for him we will not go anywhere. Do what's right and fire the guy.

Steven Ross read this? I haven't laughed that hard since I was a little girl...
The sky isn't falling my friend. We've played the coaching carousel since many people in here still had milk on their lips. With the exception of Sherman, Id like to see what Philbin can do in year three.

Then why did you post it!?!? To hear yourself speak???
You hope Ross reads this? I'd be willing to bet Ross doesnt even know what Finheaven is!
How can I hear myself speak when I'm typing. Dolpns13. Can we say Jackass. That's ok you will be crying when we are 7 9 next year. This is a Dolphins web site and I can write what I want. As a matter of fact this is one of the biggest forums for any NFL team. Do you think the players,coaches, and management don't read this at times. The sky will be falling next year. The idea is to get better in case you missed that. Do you see us beating buffalo . Imagine there next draft this one yielded EJ Manuel, Kiko Alonso, the cornerback robey who slapped us both games, Robert woods and Marquise Goodwin. Lmao that's dominating the draft. Jets top 2 pick will be all pros soon. Why worry hell with it. I give up posting here people are smart asses. Mark it down we will be lucky to win a game in the division next year. I will go back and watch from the sidelines. Not even worth posting when people just laugh and trash you. I will remind you next year when there finally fired.

Mr Ross is a brilliant man. Kind and especially knowledgeable about pro football. This is why he has Jeff Ireland by his side. Jeff is another brilliant, giving, loyal, dedicated and Hard working General Manager. Most teams would be privileged to have a man with as much knowledge of the game. Mr Ireland is especially strong in his leadership of this team and of the Men in general. We are so lucky and privileged to Have him on our side.

I was looking through image files on my hard drive and I have this one from 2011. File name is steveross.jpg:
That's all I got.
That's all I got.
Ross might read what you said. In fact I'm almost certain he will come here and read what you said.

I'd be pretty surprised if he doesn't have people who take a peek for him. Most corporations either employ people to troll discussion sites/blogs or people do it on their own during their off hours.
A few years ago the Redskins Media Relations guy actually got caught after he registered on the Washington Post website and was posting a ton of anti-Post / pro-Redskins stuff.
Is this Jeff Irelands mother? Sucking up to Ross and praising the ball boy? This post makes absolutely no sense.

Stephen Ross's problems began when he didn't fire the HC and the GM when he bought the team. If Dan LeBatard is right and Ross's problem is he feels loyalty to those who are loyal to him, then cleaning house when he bought the team was the perfect scenario for making a change. Ross had no loyalty to anyone because he didn't know anyone. Parcells and his cronies had done nothing to bring success to this franchise, in fact, Parcells was engaging in an act of grand larceny both during the Huizenga and Ross regimes and after he gave Ross all of these assurances that they could continue to work together, he cleaned out his office and disappeared without anyone knowing it. Parcells was the last, of many blemishes that occurred under Huizenga's ownership. Ross had every right to clean out the whole rotten bunch of them and bring in new people. Not doing so was Ross's original sin, everything since then is compounding of his first mistake.
Now we're talking about firing a GM or firing a HC, but no one thinks they will both be fired and this is yet another error. So Ross fires Ireland, hires a new GM and forces a coach and philosophy not of his choosing on that new GM. Stupid. Or you fire Philbin, keep Ireland and let Ireland make another boatload of mistakes in hiring a coach and acquiring talent. This makes even less sense then the first scenario, but this appears, from all outward appearances to be the path in which Ross is going to walk. Of course, Ross can go a third route and not fire either one and give them both another year to prove they are a disaster of Biblical scale.
The French philosopher Jean Paul Sartre once told a story of a young man who came to him during WW2 and asked if he should stay home with his ailing mother, or run off and join the resistance. He told Sartre he had already asked a priest the same question, Sartre replied to the young man that one desires the sort of advice one seeks. Stephen Ross is receiving the sort of advice he wants. He's consulting people who all have long-standing relationships with Jeff Ireland or his mentor, Bill Parcells. I believe Carl Peterson gave Ireland one of his first jobs, and people like Dawn Aponte have long-standing associations with the Parcells machine, even if Ireland is now considered persona non grata by them because he held Ross's hand during the Harbaugh fiasco. Ross knows the answer he's going to get before he ever asks the question. Its not an honest process. And while I'm impressed with Ross's empathy for someone that showed great loyalty to Ross, even as it cost him his friends, I doubt Ross ever tolerated an employee that botched multi-million dollar real estate deals on a regular basis.
