This is a moderated phorum for the CIVILIZED discussion of the Miami Dolphins. In this phorum, there are rules and moderators to make sure you abide by the rules. The moderators for this phorum are JC and Colonel.
Hello all, its me again. Is it just me or does anyone else think this is getting really embarrassing? stop with the stupid coach search for gods sake. you look like a complete desperate idiot. Why dont we interview oaklands jock washer?? i mean hell go for it right? just offer philbin 3mill a year and get his ass and flynns over here. I know now is not the time to approach him and i feel absolutely terrible for him, but stop interviewing everyone, send him a note of condolense and the opportunity to start in a new place. if he turns you down then start searching again, but we look like jack asses ok?? nobody is going to hire any of the crap you looked at so stop now. freaking damn joke of an owner.
oh by the way i forgot this:::::::: Fisher you waffling fence riding wanny wanna be. stay the hell away if you cant decide where u want to work, i sure as hell dont want u deciding on the players and schemes. Hell didnt realize 2 choices was such a major damn distraction. good god grow a set and pick one already. just not miami you loser.
How is Ross making a fool out of himself?
He fired Sparano early to get a jump on the coaching search.
He can't help it that Fisher is a mullet wearing, bro-stash styling d-bag! Proving my point by choosing St.Louis(?)over Miami?! Seriously?! If he wants to go work in some po-dunk, crap market town, then let him. Over Miami?! The crown jewel of the football factory known as the state of Florida!
If we don't get Gruden, we need to find the next Sean Peyton or Jim Harbaugh. Someone who can match and out wit the Hoody so we an finally recapture the division.

Whaddya drinking tonight? whiskey?
Take it easy man! relax.....
The season isn't starting next week, Jeff Fisher is weighing his options and I'm sure you would too if you were in the same shoes.
He's picking a team this week, Tue or Wed from the reports out there.
We could have Shula, Lombardi's ghost, and the 3 best coaches in the NFL today roaming the Phin sideline but we will get nowhere without a legitimate franchise qb.
We're not moving up, our only hope is to land Matt Flynn and hope he is the real deal and that's a fact!!
I'd like to land Fisher just for the hell of it but......at the end of the day it's all about the QB position.
Oh and just for the record anyone who would want to live in St.Louis over Miami is seriously retarded!
I live in Canada but if I had to come to the USA and choose between Miami and St.Louis to live in it's not even anything to consider..... St.Louis is a depressing mid west ugly run down city to live in, Miami may have it's bad spots too but I'll take a city with a pulse over murder/rape capital of the USA any day.
Whatever Fisher hasn't made it official yet but.....
I don't think we're handling the situation poorly, this time around.
There's no rush until the playoffs are over. And if Fisher is waffling, he must not want the job that badly.
As others have said, if a candidate wants to waltz into an environment where most things are nicely in place (esp. the QB situation) then he does NOT have the passion to be a true nfl coach.

I think the Philbin ship has sailed.
Its going to be easier for him to take a few months off and go back to his familiar role in GB after the death of his son than it is for him to take on a bigger, entirely new role here and be successful.
Besides, from Miami's perspective...we have no idea how this will affect his ability to be a great HC.
I'd steer well clear and turn my search in another direction.

I live in L.A. and I haven't even heard they are on the Radar. The betting is 1) Chargers 2) Newly created team then 3) another NFL team, hear mention of the Jags but no one else.

Not only that, but wouldn't it take quite a few years to complete any team's process of relocating? Any coaching candidate would be looking way too far ahead to consider this sort of thing unless the relocation process was already underway (IMO)

Ask Baltimore Colts fans how long it took. The Rams stadium lease is up in 2014, there's real concern they could be headed to LA

Will the team get ignored by the local population....again?
The problem is that both the Rams and the Raiders played in the LA Coliseum. First the Rams, then the Raiders. USC plays there but the University itself is there so students know the lay of the land.
However, parking is atrocious and if you go very far away, you are in a very bad part of town.
When I was a kid, it was "Gladiator" territory. They took their name from the Coliseum. I was from the territory of "Slausons" named for Slauson Avenue but in those days, gang fighting was just fist fighting. If you were a kid that lived in the territory, you were held responsible as the same as a gang member whether you were a nerd or not.
When anybody asked me where I was from, I'd say I was visiting from Oklahoma.
But today's gangs are a far different thing. They don't fistfight, they shoot and kill.
Just last night, some kid was telephoned went outside his house to meet someone unknown and was shot to death and this happened in one of the suburbs.
The fact is that people just don't feel safe going down to the Coliseum area but the politicians with the influence represent that area. They have insisted that any NFL team coming to LA must play in the coliseum.
There was a plan in the 1980s to locate a stadium 30 miles away out in Irwindale (around the car race track) but the powerful city politicians blocked it. So all these years after the Raiders left, no football team because no team in its right mind would locate where people would be afraid to go.
As far as the Raiders were concerned, they were never really here because they wanted to be. They were always leveraging the City of Oakland all along. They finally got what they wanted and went back.
However, with the new Staples Center and the proposed stadium downtown, that is a much more visitor friendly area and is still somewhat in the same district as some of those powerful politicians.
Now there just has to be a deal struck with a team BEFORE the stadium is built.
