Transcript

00:00i could go till 10 p.m talking about the dolphins tonight i could this is one of those

00:06games because the the only the part that i find and again i'm finding comedy i can find comedy in

00:12any place though i'm finding such unbelievable comedy in stephen ross rushing down to get to

00:21field level and then to a throwing the interception on the lateral play which wouldn't

00:27have mattered anyway but think about it they're in the suite you know it's almost like the heat have

00:33to decide when to play seven nation army you know they can't didn't they get it wrong once last

00:39season solana the pepas alarm for the first time ever last year that was it yeah yeah yeah was uh

00:45was faulty too early premature pepas they have to decide when is it appropriate to call this game

00:52over because that's the only time they play pepas and if they get it wrong they get embarrassed and

00:57it happened once it happened last season and stephen ross and tom garfinkel had the pepas moment

01:04like when is it okay for us to walk down to the field we've got to get from suite level

01:09to the field but we better well be damn certain that the dolphins have won this game before we

01:18you know trek all the way down to the field and stand there we don't want to stand there like

01:23bumbling idiots if they're walking off after a loss

01:27why set that why set the precedent on a one in four team because it's a vote of confidence like

01:38they've given mike mcdaniel you know through uh sources ian rapaport and whoever we're going to be

01:45patient we still believe in it and so for them to be down on the field and congratulate mike mcdaniel

01:52and tua as they come off after a good you know gritty victory that would have been a good gritty

01:59victory over the chargers and it would have been the comeback that fourth quarter comeback that

02:04everybody wants from tua like it was it was all there and so stephen ross makes his way down to the

02:11field and then jalen phillips has justin herbert in his grasp and justin herbert shoes him off like

02:19i'm trying to tackle him hits lad mcconkey and then lad mcconkey all of a sudden looks like he's

02:27terrell owens it's it's the it's the team too right like if you put the content all of it the entire

02:34perspective in they're getting booed by their own fan base midway through that game because tua is not

02:40playing an outstanding game you had the interception early you're playing justin herbert

02:44hardball is on the opposite sideline all week leading up to the game steven ross is getting

02:50torched for not going after hardball i'm not going to be the one that takes him away from michigan

02:54this team has been getting torched because they took two over justin herbert there's banners flying

03:00to fire everybody week after week and then the home fan base is booing the team and guess what

03:05somehow some way to just let a game-winning drive to go win the game steve ross is going to come down

03:11he's going to pump his chest he's going to flex a little bit and then him and tom garfinkel are

03:15basically in tears watching all of it evaporate it would have been great if ross and garfinkel just

03:21faint and they're just laying on the turf they can't believe i i mean we have to have a camera

03:30on steven i wish that there was a reality show that just showed me steven ross and tom garfinkel

03:37deciding when to move down how many people have to be involved in that move because there's security

03:44around them i don't know if you saw somebody had posted a picture of steven ross's security

03:48and they're bigger than ro line dozens of them and so everyone's got to move from the suite to the field

03:57people have to be cleared out and then all of a sudden he's standing there i want to see the

04:02entire transaction of them going from the suite level down to the field level and then i just want

04:07a close-up on steven ross as jalen phillips cannot tackle justin herbert as lad mcconkey is running

04:16circles around your dbs and then i gotta see a close-up of steven ross as tua throws the interception

04:25the ladder i just there's no what robert craft doesn't run to the field during victories

04:34clark hunt and kc earth say never ran to the field what's the point this was bigger than that this is

04:41exactly what solana was saying this was bigger than that this is steven ross going out there and

04:48saying yeah mike i heard all the noise tua i heard all the noise you just beat justin herbert you just

04:57beat jim harbaugh and you guys did it with all the noise and the airplane circling and i'm here to

05:03congratulate you and thank you for withstanding the onslaught of media and fan criticism and gutting

05:12out a victory that a lot of people thought you couldn't do and i knew you could because i'm a

05:17successful businessman and i'm a successful owner and y'all have embarrassed me on the field you've

05:25embarrassed me with team only meetings players only meetings and now you're embarrassing me physically

05:31because now i'm sitting down here looking like a jackass standing on the field during a loss

05:36hot people are chatting are putting in on the chat remember arthur blank in that uh in the super

05:41bowl for atlanta when he's just standing down down there the dream is crumbling and they come

05:48please run the ball are we are we sure that steven ross didn't actually sign james daniels to his

05:55security team is that what happened james daniels thought he was supposed to play but after three

06:00snaps steven ross like no no no i don't want you to be on the team i signed you to my security detail

06:04that's where liam eikenberg probably is too throughout this entire process

06:08jimmy call the dolphins office and ask for steven ross that would be funny jimmy just call and say

06:18can i speak with steven ross it's jimmy from uh 104.3 fm no no you won't do it all right he is

06:27insubordinate he is insubordinate it's like being on the dolphins jimmy this is the players only meeting

06:34bro he didn't show up

06:35i mean what can steven ross i'm assuming he takes the helicopter home after right he usually takes

06:44the helicopter in there's a lot of traffic there i mean what can he be thinking after that like what

06:50i'm again this is one of the most successful businessmen of our time he has had the worst

06:59go of it as an nfl owner than you could ever imagine i mean they they they haven't sniffed a

07:07playoff win and they thought this was kind of the window and this is one of the worst seasons that

07:17they've ever put together under his his ownership oh i bet because he's a real estate guy construction

07:24real estate in his line of work you you can fix problems quickly if the construction company is

07:32going slow hire another one if you get the banks are acting funny about the loans go find another

07:36bank to get a loan from you can do things quickly why is he being so patient with this aspect of his

07:42business i don't know i mean he he genuinely likes mike mcdaniel and chris greer there's no question

07:51he genuinely likes them and and god bless him for sticking with guys who he likes there there's

07:57something to be said about that in in some aspects of life it's not commendable to keep around
