"I just hate we didn't stand behind him," he said. "I know the guys in the locker room would. But the organization felt a totally different way. They probably have more information than we know, and they had to do what they had to do. Still, it's tough to lose a good man." "It's going to be a bigger distraction because we let him go," "He didn't get that third strike. That's just me personally. ... We've been through worse. We've seen worse. Everybody loved having him around. It's just unfortunate."
-Karlos Dansby
:roll: :roll: :roll:
Scary part: Karlos wears a C on his chest for this team...
Fuck Dansby. He stinks. Little Danny Woodhead ABUSES him in man-coverage.
Dansby needs to focus on getting that D ready - the same D that made Dan Orlovsky look like John Elway Friday night. This is the same "leader" who showed up 30 lbs overweight last year - a MAJOR - contributor to the Fins starting 0-6. He needs to STFU, get in line and go play ball.
“It’s not about one person flexing his muscles and saying, ‘We’re doing this.’ It’s, again, it’s just about a fit and it didn’t feel like to me that this fit was going to be right for us as an organization or for Chad. It was time to move on. It is what it is. Again, it wasn’t done to send a message. It was done because it just didn’t feel right. That’s why it was done.”
-Joe Philbin
Can't wait for Hard Knocks tomorrow night - HBO released a statement today that the whole Chad "OchoStinko" and Evelyn "OuchoStinko" episode will be part of it!
Seriously with Legedu Naanee, Davone Bess, Julius Pruitt, Marlon Moore, Roberto Wallace and a healthy Brian Hartline - this team doesn't skip a beat. In Miami, it's about the QB - plain and simple. Chad Johnson was going to be worth how many wins exactly???
Lets Go Miami! I applaud Philbin's decision to cut the cancer out early...
Hard Knocks tonight WILL have footage of Coach Philbin meeting with/releasing Chad Johnson from the team.
Evelyn "OuchoStinko" also has filed for divorce today
I personally hope this episode has Philbin giving Dansby the business for opening his piehole publicly about this ridiculousness
Ocho gets arrested, gets released, his VH1 gets dropped and now Ev files for divorce. That is a shitty week.

"We paced ourselves and we didn't rush through it and we tried to be as creative as our collective minds would let us be over some course of time instead of just trying to rush through a record"
Great episode...love the miking of the coaches...
Chris Hogan, WR - rookie from Monmouth - played Lacrosse @ Penn St - has a real shot of making the team...practices hard, has speed and catches everything thrown his way...
Things I loved:
- The link between the Reid family and Philbin family - sux to bury children
- Chad knowing he was cut before he stepped in Philbin's office
- Asst GM Gaine talking to WR Wallace
- Mike Shermans tact and language (pulls no punches whatsover)
If Philbin develops the youth (WR, TE, FB) on this squad, I'll really liking his coaching style...
It HAD to suck to have those Hard Knocks cameras in there this wk...
I love the Phins O-Line - they are nasty and cohesive...
I got a feeling things ain't gonna end well for Gerard...(Ireland knows this)
Hey DS1119 - saw a few of the "Fuck the Fish" comments - brilliant - do me a favor - when you are admiring the Fins 2 Lombardi trophies to the Bills ZIPPO, the Bills 52 more losses then wins as a franchise, the Fins 56-36 record against you guys, Bills last playoff appearance was 13 years ago and counting - and in our dual 6-10 seasons last year (in which we swept you 35-8 and 30-23) remember, the Bills are just like a fat bowl of killer ganja - put them in a bowl and they get smoked!!!!
Eat some wings and see ya Nov 15th for yet another beating!

Don't get upset? How's the QB search going. :corn: Fuck the fish.
Don't get upset? How's the QB search going. :corn: Fuck the fish.
Not upset at all, bro...feel bad for you Bills fans - (plus their mammals, not fish )
QB search is going GREAT, thanks for asking - we have a possible franchise QB in Tannehill (too early, but looks great so far) and we have Matty Moore coming back (won all 6 games last year). David Garrard has a bum knee that was just scoped, could hurt his chances, but by all accounts he has looked good. Like Chad Johnson, rumors are he is struggling picking up the playbook.
Speaking of "how's the QB search going" - are you happy with the $59 Amish rifle? Is the sloppy Miami seconds of Tyler Thigpen working out for you? How about that Vince Young guy?
Happy NFL season buddy, DS1119 - is Buffalo still playing games up in Toronto this year?
Man, you could tell Philbin was anticipating Chad losing it, no? The tapping was making me squirm (even after watching it a 14th time )
It is amazing to me the media and even player backlash at the decision to release Chad. Really? This was not an isolated incident. Stupid "tweets", foul- mouthed press conference, then the arrest and negativity it brought to the franchise, a franchise that every player knows is being taped like Nixon's oval office!
Plain and simple - If he had been able to run correct routes and get open he’s still on the team today (I believe that). Proof: the scene in the QB room where they’re all scratching their heads at some of the defensive reads Chad was making - seems like the same "lack of knowing the plays" bug that hit him in NE stayed with him in MIA.
I also found Philbin's tapping of his fingers less a nervous gesture and more of a "can't wait for this to end" type thing - anyone else?

Don't get upset? How's the QB search going. :corn: Fuck the fish.
I've always preferred New England's more clever "Squish the fish" chant but whatever.
Anyway, I'm not sure why you're laughing at the QB "search" because they're not searching for anybody. They got Tannehill. He may be good, he may suck, but at least he's a rookie who's playing on a 22 million dollar contract and he's considered a "project." You guys made RYAN FITZPATRICK the highest paid player in Buffalo Bills history on the basis of a couple good games. Talk about a moronic, near-sighted decision. For the sake of comparison, Aaron Rodgers won a Super Bowl and regular season MVP award, and Green Bay still hasn't given him an extension (though it will be enormous when he gets it). I'll take our QB "search" over $24 million GUARANTEED to someone as unproven as Fitzpatrick. Have fun with that.
And now for a low-brow comment: I've been up to Buffalo to see 5 Dolphins/Bills games....and that place is a cesspool of ugliness. And I'm not talking about the run-down, disgusting Ralph Wilson stadium. I'm talking about the trashy looking people that fill their stands. The girls look like guys and the guys look like Joker's henchmen in the Dark Knight.
But PJFAN13, don't hang your hat on the Fish's two Super Bowl titles. That was 40 years ago.
But PJFAN13, don't hang your hat on the Fish's two Super Bowl titles. That was 40 years ago.
39 yrs ago to be exact, but who keeps track of such things
The Perfect Season was 40 years ago
The Super Bowls were a lifetime ago - for sure - (I'll be 40 in Nov) - but the Hall of Fame, the record books and the beautiful trophy case in Davie & Miami Gardens contain 2 Lombardi trophies - nonetheless - 2 more trophies then our friends in Buffalo have. I won't hang my hat on it - in fact I'm feeling like those old Boston Red Soxians who wanted "just one before I die" - but I will remain proud of them.
I LOVED the Jim Turner addition to this team when it was announced, and he was cracking me up with the chalkboard and the comments about the down faces and how the desks rose 6" when the 'Call Me Maybe' cheerleading video was played - hilarious!!
I also LOVED Mike Sherman's exchange with Clay & Egnew:
"Where's Charles?" (Charles raises hand) "You're shit!"
"Where's Egnew?" (Egnew raises hand)"You were drafted as a high pick. You're shit. It's not good enough!"
Love this show - as a Finatic I feel extremely fortunate to have this access - GO PHINS!!!

Call it trashy...call the people trashy...doesn't matter. SOme of the best tailgating and most loyal fans in the NFL.

in further fainess..i told you this show was thier superbowl this year.
No smiley faces???
Look I never said it was a Dolphins thread, but it is currently a Dolphins conversation. And you don't have to tell me ANYTHING about the Dolphins and the Super Bowl. If time-travel ever becomes a real thing, I'm gonna go back and tell my 9 year old self that the Dolphins will never ever make it to the Super Bowl so quit getting your hopes up. Nobody is as critical of the Dolphins or as embarrassed by them as I am. Did you know they haven't made it to the AFC Title Game since 1992? They're one of like a half-dozen teams that haven't been to the conference title game in the last 20 years. For the sake of comparison, the fucking Jets have made it there twice in the last couple of years. Kill me now.
So what's your team? And whoever they are, I know they're better than the Dolphins so I don't need to hear about it. I'm just curious.
