Peter King: Big Factor in Sea over Miami was Vibe...
82 replies
Well, I was reserving judgment of our front office until now. I thought the media was blowing the Dolphins dysfunction out of proportion. Maybe it was just b/c the dysfunction was relegated to the FO and coaches for the most part...Sparano, Harbaugh and Fisher it didn't bother me too much. There was the Dez situation, but "hey, it was Dez," not the most trustworthy source.
But clearly Miami's "vibe" or lack-thereof is affecting player decisions to come here. Don't think there was ever a better fit than Flynn to Miami. The "vibe" of an organization almost always flows down from the top:
Peter King @SI_PeterKing
Talked to Flynn. Said a big factor in Sea over Mia was vibe in the building in Seattle: "The coaches, the staff--they were fantastic.'

Well if the guy who thought he was worth more than what we'd pay said the "vibe" was the reason then it must be true.

BumrushsubscriberThe "coaches"? You mean the same coach that was your OC and helped you get the big contracT?
I call a bunch of BS.
Killer Beesforum_veteranOfcourse he's going to say that, they obviously wanted him more, and he is now a Seahawk so he is going to talk them up. He would of same thing if it went the other way.
JagfishNew MemberI don't put too much stock in this quote. He just signed a big contract and isn't going to say "I signed with Seattle b/c they money was better" He is going to go with the "Team really impressed me", "Pete has a ton of energy" angle. It's rare an when athlete says they took a contract for the money, which is kinda what Flynn's dad hinted at.

Ireland does come off as a tightwad douchebag.
Perception trumps reality. We better start winning soon or we are the new 70's- 80's Tampa Bay Bucs.

I don't think this team will start winning until the tightwad douchebag is fired.

is everyone allowed to call you ireland's jilted ex lover? You know as someone who bitches as much as you do, when someone disrespects you, you would figured you'd stop antagonizing people just because you didn't get what you wanted.

:lol:
PhinsRDbestforum_veteranRead Ryan Clark's tweets they were pretty telling.
ToddsPhinsNew MemberFlynn might be feeling hurt that his ex OC didn't want him as badly as Seattle did, similarly to how Taylor Mays felt jilted when Pete Carroll passed him over in the draft. If we didn't want the guy enough to sign him for a 26.0M contract, we shouldn't be criticized for not being excited about his visit.
If we DID seem heavily excited but didn't sign him, that's when I'd be concerned.

Call me whatever you want. This isn't about what I want. It's about the Front Office doing a horrible job and it's having a very negative affect on the Miami Dolphins. If you want to ignore that, go right ahead.

By the way, you guys should peep Ryan Clark's recent tweets about why he didn't sign with Miami.

Last year you complained we didnt take a QB in the first round regardless of who he was.
This year you're already complaining about our "failure" at the QB position despite the possibility existing of us using our 1st on a QB.
You see the dichotomy here?

I'm not ignoring it. You ignored my point. Try again.

Fan boy, according to whichever definition you want to believe on Urban Dictionary is someone who supports someone or something regardless of whether or not they suck. Seems pretty fitting to me. I don't mean it as an insult. Clearly you are an Ireland fan, no? You spend a lot of time supporting him.
I'm a fan of logic and factual info, which clearly makes me spend a lot of time conflicting with what you post and the rumors and spin that the garbage media puts out there.
I've been critical of this FO when I feel they make a dumb decision, just like I will if they do sign Smith and pay him starter's money.
