Sparano is stocky, a man's man. A guy you'd think doesn't make a habit of shedding tears often. But that would be assuming too much.

Tears fall from his face all the time, and Sparano can't help it. His eyes are extremely sensitive to light because of an accident he had with a deep fryer at a restaurant he worked at as a teenager.

Splashing hot grease burned his eyes, leaving him without vision for nearly a month. And 31 years later, the accident's effects are still present.

His eyes water regularly, and when they start running, so does his nose.

"When it starts, I become a mess," the 46-year-old confesses.

It's a good thing Sparano's sight hasn't distorted his vision for the Dolphins. Nor has it stopped this career offensive line coach's army of supporters from believing his detail-oriented ways, straight-talking style and comfort with confrontation will enable South Florida's beloved franchise to once again regain its bite following last year's disastrous 1-15 season.

I'm glad we have this guy at the helm rather than Cameron. Now i know what a leader is like...
 
Ive said this before and i'll say it again. Im gonna take a wait and see approach with tony sparano. To me, right now, he's an unproven coach that can fail just like saban or cam did. Hopefully, he proves me wrong.
 
Say what you want about Vermeil. But players loved playing for him. And they played really hard for him-- those things you can't say about the impersonal Saban, the whacked Wannstache, and the buffoon Cameron.
 
This coaching staff actually has a clue, whereas last years didn't.

I really though Satan would turn out better than he did....
 
I think Saban was a good coach, the players bought into his system. Cameron was just a moron. Tony Sparano is another good coach and the players WILL buy into his system, and he wont have the same problem as saban...a lack of passion.
