Folks, we all must get real and support our team. Bill Cowher is not gonna come here with a killer O coordinator, a Pro Bowl QB, a lightning fast receiver, a fresh running back, and a ball hawking shut down corner in his back pocket. He's not gonna parachute into Sun Life Stadium, wave a magic wand, and put us in the Super Bowl the first year.

Please reference this: http://www.pro-football-reference.com/coaches/CowhBi0.htm 

Coach Cowher went into one of the most stable and winningest franchises, and how did he do? He did great, BUT it took him 3 years to win his first playoff game. Remember all the quarterbacks he went through, looking for the next Terry Bradshaw, before Big Ben landed in his lap? He was with the Steelers 14 seasons before he won a Super Bowl!!! The following year, he went 8 - 8, and retired.

In this day and age of "Instant Gratification Demanding fans & ownership," Bill Cowher would have been fired by his 3rd year. You want Bill Cowher? I would welcome him, but NOBODY is coming in here and being an instant success. You have to build a team. That takes time and patience. Something fans these days don't have. AND, it's alot harder today than it was back when Don Shula came in here.

If I were Mr. Ross, I'd give Tony another year. I would bite the bullet and do whatever it takes to draft a franchise QB in the 1st round. I would lure in a hot O Coordinator, and try and find the next sleeper WR & RB in this draft, like a Marques Colston and a Chris Ivory. And do WHATEVER IT TAKES to keep Mike Nolan as our D Coordinator. I do think we should tell Parcells to go jump off a bridge & see what Tony & Jeff can do on their own.

Our F.O. did pretty good at building a good Defense through the draft, then when we got Nolan it came together. The players love playing for TS. I say we give him a fair shot, and start building a new offense in the draft. Be a fan, support your team, pray for a little better luck next year on injuries, bad ref's calls, and play calling in the 4th quarter. If we woulda won the Steelers game (which was taken by a bad call), and finished off Cleveland, Buffalo & Detroit, we'd be going into N.E. Sunday looking to knock the Jets outta the playoffs. We have a good foundation laid. Do you have the patience to tear it down and start again, or the balls to see what we can build on this foundation and maybe take steps to bring pride back to our franchise?

Be careful what you wish, you just might get it.

It was published this week that A) Joshua Cribbs is ready to move on, and B) Mike Holmgren wants to bring in a vet QB, to bridge the gap, as they rebuild. "Hmmmmmmmmm.............." This made me think, being an Ohio Dolphins fan for 40 years.....

How about we offer up Chad Pennington and Cleveland native Teddie Ginn to the Browns for Cribbs, and a HIGH draft pick, (remember where the Browns will be picking: Only won 5 games). The Brownies get what they want, and we get our go to game breaker, plus a high draft pick to build on.

Your thoughts?

Check out today's poll on ESPN.com:

"If you were a top-five pick in this year's draft, who would you most like to play for?"

Interesting. I like this guy, and pay attention, when they ask him about the Dolphins @ #1. He seems like a class act.

I saw the interview (video) last night, but can't find it today, (See what 6 Samuel Adams Cherry Wheats will do for you?).

Here's a link to his interview (in text):

...and for those who just want the quote:

Q: "Have you talked to the Dolphins? How would you feel about playing for them?"

A: "It would be an honor. I haven't talked to them yet. I've had some informal meetings, nothing formal. It would be a great honor."

This is crap coming out today is "Agent BS."

This is a really good article that I just stumbled onto. It's a diary by Matt Ryan and includes his Pro Day, a private workout with the Jets & Dolphins, and he says he's going to Kansas City & Baltimore, yet.

Sounds like Ireland & company dug into his past, his head, his future, and everywhere they could. Pretty interesting, to say the least & makes me feel mighty good about how they're handling the screaning of potential draft choices. Check it out:

Just caught thison Fan Nation truth & rumors:

http://www.fannation.com/truth_and_rumors/view/44551

Seems they had Henne work out already, and have requested a private workout session with Brian Brohm. Interesting. Has anyone heard if Ryan is coming down for a workout, or Flacco?

I'm really curious who they really will go after. Looks like a crap shoot, to me.

Hey everybody, since we're all watching college highlights & wondering who the Feash will pick, I thought I'd bring this in from the last draft.

I absolutely LOVE watching Ron Jaworski analyze teams, plays, players, etc. He has a great ability to help idiots like us understand everything that goes into a play, and what's going on that you wouldn't otherwise notice.

Click on this link & watch Jawz break down John Beck's talents & maybe it will give us all a little faith that with Parcells assembling a whole team around him that he'll take off this year.

Alright people, I know about all the crap about drafting Ted Ginn & his whole family, but seriously (even though Cam can't coach), family does say alot, when you are dangling millions at a young man. I'd rather see a guy from a strong family who has overcome many obstacles than a kid who has never had a concious, diceplin, family falues, or dedication in his life (see Michael Vick).

Anyhoo.......... Since Bill & company are finally getting people on this team that know how to KILL on special teams, you may want to take 7 minutes of your time to see what Ted Ginn can do with proper coaching & people with heart on special teams.

Maybe between Ginn & his family, and the whole freaking Dallas Cowboy family we have signed, we might see some of THIS in '08!

GO DOLPHINS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I really like John Beck, but DANG...... Joe Flacco is looking like a steal at pick #32, "just incase" John doesn't pan out. He's a totally different style that Beck, and is a Beast to try and trap in the pocket. I saw Big Ben play in high school & this kid is a second coming of a guy who just signed a 102 MILLION dollar contract. Well work a 2nd round investment.

Check out the footage, and listen to the commentators!

Let's see..........

The last 10 years or so we have done NOTHING, but trade & throw away our drafts. The coaches & front office have pissed away a 30-somrthin' year tradition & made us a laughing stock.

Jesus Christ, Moses & Mary couldn't have made this team a contender this year. What did Cam & Randy do?

Well, when's the last time the Dolphins EVEN HAD 10 draft picks? They got 'em for us. When was the last time we had this many rookies even PLAY in a season, LET ALONE start? Yes, we sacrificed a few "decent players," but it was the beginning of a rebuild with promise. We've got 11 rookies on this roster, and more on the Practice Squad that show promise.

Excuse me, but when was the last time Ronnie Brown was LEADING THE ENTIRE FUCKING NFL (Over L.T, Randy Moss, and everybody else) in total yards from scrimmage??????????? Oh yeah, and with a start from scratch, make shift offensive line, with a rookie starting center?

When was the last time Zach Thomas missed most of the season due to injuries, (and what.... 6 or 7 defensive backs, a starting QB, 2 running backs..............)???????

You near sighted idiots have NO CLUE what it takes to take a team that has been DEVISTATED by piss poor coaching, management & injuries to build a winner again. It takes MEN who have the freaking BALLS to step up & make the tough choices that don't put a "Dora the Explorer Band Aid" on it & make it feel better for a few weeks. It takes MEN, who have the vision & patience to do the right thing long term to build a winner. Randy & Cam were just that!!!!!!!!!!!

Now, we have Bill (the NFL's version of a 2 pump chump), who will flash thunder & lightning, talk the talk, and run out on us. He's gonna get raises & promotions for every idiot who every rubbed a raw spot on the back of their head under his desk in: Dallas, New York, New England, the OTHER New York............. and then when it backfires, he'll claim "BURN - OUT" & leave us back in the dumpster.

Tell me, HONESTLY, just what REALLY has the Big Tuna done in the last DECADE, (other than 1 super bowl win with the Giants), but live off his reputation & give up & walk away? Did he take The Patriots, Jets or Cowboys to the promised land? Fuck no, he got pissed off at press conferences, made a scene, couldn't handle fan & media pressure, and said, "HOW DARE YOU," and walked out!

I hope you're all happy. Randy Mueller put together the best draft I can remember, being a Dolphins fan for over 35 years. Cam didn't get the wins, and had rookie coaching growing pains, but the team believed in him, never gave up, and we hit rock bottom, to start to build it back right.

Wayne: You shoulda sold the team & opened resturants & car lots! You shoulda let these 2 guys have a fair shot to do what no one else had the fuckin nads to do: scrap this shit & build it right!

Now, we start over AGAIN, and watch "The Big Tuna & his Posse," (sounds like a one hit wonder Rap "Artist" doesn't it) take is to oblivion!

Randy & Cam, I applaud you for what you tried to do. You were on the right track. Problem is fans & the media want that instant orgasm. Well boys & girls, grab your Lubriderm, hide in a closet & have at 'er!

Were screwed,

Dave
