Conflicting reports on Fisher-Dolphins falling out

Fisher wanted the final say on personnel matters, and Stephen Ross didn't want to go that route.

Word is Fisher gets to have a say in the GM selection in St. Louis. That would make any coach happy.

Jeff Ireland should have packed his bags w/ Sparano... they came as a package deal and should have gone the same way... do I detect a taint of rotten TUNA?

I read an article where Fisher implied that for years he had to fight Bud Adams and Floyd Reese to get what he thought he needed personnel-wise. He didn't want to draft Vince Young, and as a consequence had to say good-bye to Steve McNair, among other details. If he does get a say in the GM vetting process, that would be a sweet deal for him after 17 years of banging his head against a wall in those matters.

Oh geeeez. That spinny thing everyone mentions is a beeeyotch. Sorry for the triple-post.

St Louis would seems to be the right choice. More control and a QB who is quite capable.

He chose the Rams, please,please interns, find another topic.

Accountability is. Two way Street, he will do well there, he stayed with Bud toooooooo long!!

..Yawn...

Jeff Ireland may be a great GM, but I have not been impressed with his drafts the last couple of seasons. The Dolphins need more than Ireland or Fisher can offer to get them back to the playoffs.

Hey 50 YEAR FAN; I always respect your opinion - what is the deal with all the hype about this guy? It's not his fault that he's a "wanted man", but I think he owes a % of his salary to Bud Adams because I think his best quality is that he was in one place for a very long time. I'm not saying the guy isn't good, but I don't get why he's high on everyone's list???

I have a suggestion for an article:
How about my new almost favorite player... Tim Teebow? Have you heard of him? I was at my kid's Jr. Canadian hockey game last night (yes, they won, thanks for asking). Anyway, one of the kids scored and he does the Teebow pose. Pretty funny, hopefully not done with a mean spirit.

We have seen a lot of threads on this topic. . . hmmmm. . .

Read that the Navy uses dolphins to detect mines - since when did Miami have the skills to go deep?

Dolphins have Henne.

Rams have Bradford.

Fisher had McNair and V. Young.


The man is no fool. You win with a QB.

Dolphin fans wake up madder than when they went to bed. Didn't think that was possible till the draft.
