They made him an offer, they didn't go all in. In poker, when you go all in, do you have still chips left?
Sorry FinD.. We went all in on Harbaugh and lost. If we won that bet we would be praising this team and our turnaround right now... The rest of this media crap and image problem is directly related to missing out on Harbaugh and the corresponding Sparano fiasco.
You mean aside from the weeks he spent here before both Superbowls? He didn't visit here bc he'd just flown around the country for the last 72 hours and we did him a favor by going to meet him. Sorry, I only have logic in my corner. I don't need to act like some little kid who feels the need to deal in such absolutes as one side or the other. lol At your "actual events" when you're the king of posting rumors and garbage that you spin as the facts you're "reporting." Please.
No FinD. Stephen Ross did not offer him 3.1 Billion Dollars and all his shares in Miami Dolphins LLC. So you are right, he was NOT Allin.
I think that the 20-28 record over the last three seasons has far more to do with it, than missing out on Harbaugh does.
He was not all in, because we still had a HC. Going all in, is **** canning your coach and offering anything and everything. But no, by all means, let all of us tell Ross how to make a business deal.
He arrived here after his presser in Indy. Why not a meeting then? of course not. He had to globetrott before he forced us to get on a plane to go to Indy to kiss his ***. I'm "the king of posting rumors and garbage that I spin as facts I report"? WTF are you talking about? The last Dolphin thing I "reported" was 100% true. (The JT story) and the last time I actually had inside info, I did not report it because I didn;t trust it, so I ran it by Muck and told him that I would not post a thread on it (I was told that Harbaugh was a done deal). My record is in black and white. I would rather that you just said Thank You for providing you some information free of charge, rather than some stupid caustic comments.
Eric Winston signs with KC. Can't wait for contract numbers and compare them to what Vernon Carey makes.
Like when "Manning flying to Miami to meet w/team officials" happened? When in reality he was just flying to his Miami home and didn't meet with us for another 5 or 6 days? Why should I thank someone for twitter rumors that are posted without any factual info or many times any logic? I don't write every person who sends me junk mail a thank you so why should that be any different?
I just passed along what was reported on WSVN. it was backed up. Blame WSVN for getting it wrong. Of course, it wasn't like there was video or anything.
A bargain. of course, he is not a Dolphin, although he visited our facility. Ireland must have turned him down or something.
Backed up with no facts is not backed up Yes, there was a video of him getting off a plane to go to his home in Miami. Where were the team officials he was meeting?
Like the other teams who were initially interested did? Lord knows KC is a beacon for intelligent decisions so that must be true.
It was what WSVN reported. it is why I make sure to always cite whoever reported what I am posting, so people can check for themselves.
Oh yes. Jeff Ireland in all his wisdom, had him in for a visit, then threw him out on his ***, just to make a point. Jeff Ireland always gets his man.
Reporting garbage from other questionable sources isn't helping the already awful SoFlo media improve.
Or maybe they just didn't think he was worth the money. But that'd be maaaadness since if you like a player then you pay him whatever he wants according to people here.
that is why we should make you the arbiter of sources. Posting anything sensationalistic to get conversation started, is frowned upon, because this is serious business here.
oh I agree. Jeff Ireland must have thought so little of Eric Winston that he did not even commit the average replacement cost for a good RT. How much was he paying Vernon Carey? oh..nevermind, that was Parcell's fault.
You're saying we couldn't land Winston when KC did. Your whole argument is we are doing things wrong. You brought up KC doing something right. Ergo, you want us to be like KC.
OH, BTW, the last three seasons, KC is 21-27, the Dolphins are 20-28. So really, we are gonna **** on the Chiefs now?
No Section its my opinion. See the way it works is...(blah, blah, blah, same crap you said earlier, blah, blah, blah) The whole argument against Ireland is a strawman.
you see, it doesn't work that way. You can't say I said something when I didn't. You can't say what is on my mind when it isn't. And again, who are we to look down upon the Chiefs? They look down upon us.
If we want to point at somebody and laugh..we better point at Buffalo or Cleveland, however, Cleveland has beaten us two years in a row.
Now, you want to see me laugh? Watch us give somebody (Alex Smith) who is NOT better than Matt Moore a giant contract to pry him away from SF. that would be hilarious.
The way people cry and get in to hysterics here would make you think it is, right? lol Again, Carey is a FA so we'll see what they think of him.
If that happens then I absolutely agree. But until it does it's all bull****. Esp when you add in Rosenhaus and all the games that appear to be going on. Of course all that looks less likely w/Peyton in Denver now.
