Dom Capers has been offered a position by the Cowboys as...

[DCBoysfan]

Nevermind the fact that it was the offense that failed us down the stretch and in the playoff game, not the defense.

The defense gave up that TD before the half against New York which hurt. But all three phases of the team let us down that day.

I said I don't care what Miami does since I'm not a Dolphins fan. I should've known you guys wouldn't be able to comprehend that or would try to spin it.

I clearly stated I think a HC should have control of his staff. Do you want me to say it slower so you'll understand it?

I understand it quite clearly, and for the upteenth time, that logic is extremely flawed

it's like saying you care about the Aids issue in America, but ignore the same issues in Kenya, because you don't care what happening in another country

either the mantra applies to all HCs, or it doesn't apply to any, so *****ing about Wade having "no control" on how his staff is shaped, while brushing off another situation where that too is the case, is moronic

you think I don't get what you're saying, when in fact I keep throwing it back in your face, you remind me of a line in the Oasis song, "Married w/ Children"

"I hate the way that you are so sarcastic, but you're not very bright"

the only thing that matters is if a competent staff is being put in place, the end justifies the means, and it's not like Jerry is doing anything immoral here,

See that wasn't so hard.

At least someone can now see that Jerry is the one making these decisions. Geez, we could've spared ourselves 10 pages on back and forth.

At least someone can now see that Jerry is the one making these decisions. With Phillips' full support and cooperation. Geez, we could've spared ourselves 10 pages on back and forth.

fixed for accuracy

you don't remember me saying that it's Jerry's team, he can do what he wants?

I do think a HC should have control of his own staff. PERIOD. Can you not understand this? If you are one of those "special" people just say so and I'll post it slower for you.

Sparano doesn't have control over his staff

you don't care, according to you, because you're not a Dolphin fan, which is the stupidest, lamest excuse I ever heard

which either means, A.) you aren't very smart, or B.) you don't really believe in the mantra, and are only using it as an excuse to bash Jerry

pick wisely

I'd give you a double-edge sword for you to fall on, but this will do

 

[Bach]

wow, I am mentally challenged seriously

I've acknowledged your argument that an HC should have control, at least 10 times already, today, hell, in the post you just quoted, I said that an HC having control should apply to all team's coaches, or not, it's not happening in Miami, yet you don't care

that's really stupid

Again, it's not that I don't think it shouldn't happen in Miami, it's that I don't care about what happens in Miami because, wait for it --------> I'm not a Dolphins fan. I don't care if they put Jason Taylor at QB. I don't care if they move the team to Havanna.

George Dunham is on the Cowboys payroll as the stadium announcer, knows multiple employees inside the Ranch, works for the Cowboys flagship radio station and has Jerry Jones on his radio show weekly ... yeah, he must really hate Jerry Jones. I'm sure he's so desperate to make Jerry look as bad as possible that he's willing to just make stuff up.

You guys are so fervent and frothing at the mouth to defend Jerry at any and all costs that you lose common sense.

I havent listened to the radio at all today, and just signed on, but I will say this if George Dunham was saying it then it should carry some weight. He lives next door to one of the cowboys scouts in Coppel. He has never said which one, but he talks to him all the time, on top of his actual working relationship with the team.

It was dunham who convinced me that parcells was on board with signing owens, because the scout told dunham and he relayed it on the radio and jerry one day agreed to that when asked.

i still dont know what was said exactly, I didnt hear it for myself, were they speculating or reporting news? If dunham said it though in a matter of fact type of way I am inclined to believe it. he has all kinds of ties.

13 pages of Jerry bashing, Stewart whining, and jalapeno spelling. What else can I do but put in my two cents.

Let's just say that Reeves was playing CB for the Dallas Cowboys. He is serviceable and all but can, on occasion, get burnt. If we upgrade the position with, say, Samuels, who would be opposed to it? Capers as the DC would prolly be the same type of upgrade. I really don't think Stewart got the best out of this defense. For that fact, Wade didn't get the best out of this defense. Capers may help them reach their full potential.

One concern I have about the Stewart replacement is Wades time in Buffalo. Didn't he leave because he wsa told to fire the special teams coach, or something, and resigned over it? If Capers is really a Jones hire, and not a Wade hire, could it be a cause for conflict between them? Wade would be a fool to make a stand over Stewart like he did before? But if he did, Jerry would just plug Garrett in and run from there. Maybe Jerry is trying to save himself some money by getting Wade to quit and then all he has to do is change Garrett's title.

I read somewhere in the past day or two that Capers was a two gap guy like Parcells. Would this mean we would change back?

Jalapenos give me heart burn.

Good...luck...in....the....olympics.

Bach, don't you need to fly down to Miami to help Sparano, another control-less coach in need?

here's some stool softener, cuz I just ripped your ***

Yeah, I think we all got that message 200 posts and 20 threads ago.

:wink2:

In a perfect world, I agree with you. I long ago gave up the fantasy that we live in a perfect world. Jerry Jones is the GM and that isn't going to change. Over the years I've clamored for Bill Polian, Ron Wolf, his son Stephen and even Scott Pioli (when we landed Tuna) to come in and take over as GM and we'd skyrocket back into being the best.

Pipe dreams rarely have happy endings. I have enjoyed reading about yours in spite of my teasing. You're nothing if not entertaining.

Interesting how you have no problem with folks speculating Wade is making all these decisions.

there you go speculating that I'm speculating!

hey man, even T.O. is down with kfc

It's obvious it isn't going to change. In fact, it seems to be reverting back. But hey, it is what it is I guess.

I'm sure it gets annoying, but it is that time of year. Besides, there needs to be at least a couple of people on here to balance things out.

The defense gave up that TD before the half against New York which hurt. But all three phases of the team let us down that day.

Did you expect them to shut them out? I mean, I don't see how giving up a TD in the middle of the game puts the blame on the defense. The defense made the stops at the end of the game to give the offense the ball. All we need was one TD in 3 possessions. We got nada.

 

[sonnyboy]

But I do have to wonder what exactly the organization said to Capers to get him to change his mind about interviewing. We should all keep in mind that this is not about money -- the Dolphins owe Capers a ton (2.6 mill I believe) and whatever he makes this year comes off that contract (e.g., if Dallas pays 1 mill then Miami owes him 1.6).

This isnt news to me. I've heard this before. But reading it in your post gave me an idea.

What's to stop Jerry from creating a contract for Capers that pays him whatever the league's min salary for positon coaches is only to take a huge jump in year 2.
Lets say Capers is worth 3 years 3 million.
He gets a 200k first year salary followed by 1.4 mil in years 2 and 3.

You got inside info or what??

11 herbs and spices is a killer! trust me!!!

In the final :46 of the half - yes.
