Why didn't Mr Ross see this coming? He may not know about running a football team ,but he damn sure knows when he Is not making money on his investment. Can he be getting a tax break it, has to be something because nobody keeps paying out and gets nothing in return?
 
First you win, then you make the money. 3 weeks ago we beat the Pats and had the door wide open for the playoffs and life was good. Not many saw this 2 game skid coming, least of all Ross.
 
If I were Ross I would be shell shocked. 200 million spent like that. 9 picks in the draft to produce what? Our most productive rookie was Brenner. Jordan was barely played, Sturgis was hit or miss. Gillisee and our corners were almost never activated and Dallas Thomas was apparently drafted by us. Couldn't tell since I don't think he ever played. We should have made the playoffs and we could have made them.....but we didn't. We beat the Colts and the Pats and the Bengals and the Chargers. We could have made some noise in the playoffs but yet again we played down to the level of the opponents we should have beat. Losing to the 0-8 Bucs?? Letting the Bills sweep us? Losing a crucial game to the Jets??? I am shell shocked and if Ross isn't as well and does not make some changes soon then he does not deserve to be an owner and we must as well stay used to losing.

the dude is a multi billionaire. he is giving away (or gave away) half his fortune (billions of dollars) to charity. he still has billions of dollars left. the last thing he needs to do is turn a profit on the miami dolphins. he wants to win. he is in it to win. he wants the dolphins to be the top franchise in the nfl in every way. whether or not he saw this disaster scenario coming has no bearing on profit, loss, or his desire to have a championship football team.
