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.
What surprises me is this decision came from within the organization, not from the league. I honestly think the writing was on the wall, and to not lose face they said we gotta do this or we're gonna look like the pieces of sh%t we are.
You think a 1st class organization like Dallas would let the guy off the hook with just a fine and suspension? No way, Jerry Jones would have fired that guy himself!
Sparano a no nonsense coach wouldn't put up with that kind of behavior on his sidelines something tells me he would fire that guy himself as well.
I guess when you are a classless organization like the N.Y Jests you can get away with disgraceful behavior like that and only have to pay a fine and miss a few remaining games on the season.
I know the guy apologized and was remorseful but that is something that should still cost him his job, he is very lucky as far as I'm concerned as most other organizations would have terminated his contract.

Yeah, then Jerry would have insisted that he become the strength coach himself, as well as the coach, general manager, and captain of the cheerleading squad.
this guy probably makes 40k a year and probably is at most qualified for a job that pays less than that outside of the nfl. What he did was really stupid but to fire him and ban him from the league would probably ruin his life. I'm OK with this outcome

You're kidding. The NFL has made a decision on this already?
He should have been fired for sure. But the NFL should fine the team and Ryan just like they did with NE and Denver. It's cheating plane and simple. That sort of thing starts from the top. The team and the head coach are responsible for actions of their employees on the field and in their facilities or when the team is together. Just like any other company.
Jets admit that the "wall" was intentional but now claim that Westhoff and Ryan didn't know about it.
Yeah, like this STRENGTH AND CONDITIONING MEATHEAD was responsible for coming up with this plan and executing it, and never told Rex Ryan about it? Even though Rex was standing three feet away?
