00:00And then the big search right now is on the Dolphins
00:01with their next head coach slash general manager.
00:05A couple notes that have been circling the ether.
00:09This is from Armando Salguera, of course,
00:11covered the Dolphins for a very long time.
00:13Long time NFL reporter and columnist.
00:16He said, a little background on Troy Aikman's addition
00:19to the Dolphins GM search.
00:22He said, the Dolphins discussed it with Jimmy Johnson
00:25and he suggested they speak with Aikman.
00:28So that's where that comes from.
00:30A little less random.
00:31Former Dolphins coach, Jimmy Johnson,
00:34influencing, bringing in Troy Aikman a little bit.
00:38So you have that.
00:39And then Diana Russini, NFL reporter for The Athletic.
00:45She says that the Dolphins have met with several GM candidates
00:50and while conversations about Miami future,
00:53about a Miami future that includes Mike McDaniel
00:56are taking place, I'm told decision makers
00:59have been pushing in interviews
01:01to hear candidates' thoughts on a new coach as well.
01:07So there you go.
01:08They're asking in the interviews.
01:11What do you think about this guy?
01:13Getting their thoughts on Mike McDaniel.
01:15And I don't imagine, I'm going to be honest with you,
01:18I don't imagine that a ton of them are going to be like,
01:21oh, that's my guy.
01:24Got to have him.
01:25Can't lose him.
01:27I'm just going to reiterate my point that if you have to go to that extent,
01:31maybe he isn't your guy.
01:32Let's just cut the strings.
01:35Nice guy?
01:36It's like, yeah, I mean, yeah, he's a nice guy.
01:38Like, what do you want me to say?
01:40Like, hey, you're a coach.
01:41I mean, what do you mean?
01:42You know, what do you think?
01:43It's like, I don't know.
01:45I mean, like, I, so, because out of this playoffs, right?
01:48Like, all right, so Harbaugh shook loose yesterday.
01:51Maybe Tomlin will.
01:53Maybe McDermott will.
01:55You think so?
01:56Maybe.
01:57Like, maybe.
01:58Maybe.
01:59I'm putting maybes on these ones.
02:03Maybe LeFle.
02:04Maybe.
02:06Even though they've had a ton of injuries,
02:07he probably doesn't deserve it.
02:08I don't think John Harbaugh deserved to get fired.
02:10I'm just trying to look.
02:11I'm trying to look at, like,
02:13where are these gold candidates
02:15that the Dolphins are hoping for?
02:16But the thing is,
02:17I just don't think that they have anybody
02:21that are losing that special at this.
02:24And I think that he is bleeped up
02:25too many things as a head coach,
02:27especially from just a leadership standpoint.
02:30Yes.
02:30I understand people who are like,
02:31oh, the team didn't quit on him.
02:33Here's the thing with that, guys.
02:36You think Jordan Brooks has quit
02:37a lot of things in his life?
02:39When you lead the league in NFL tackles,
02:41you think that guy is going to go around
02:45saying, like,
02:45I'm not quitting on Mike McDaniel
02:47because he carries around a wood bat
02:49for half the season?
02:51These are professional athletes.
02:54And, by the way,
02:56whenever,
02:58and I mean whenever,
03:00they took on a team
03:01that was a wee bit up in weight class,
03:05how much did that not quitting
03:07on Mike McDaniel help them?
03:08Not much.
03:10And it always looks like
03:12when he takes on a good team,
03:13he gets embarrassed
03:15and outcoached
03:17quite often.
03:18Not always,
03:19but quite often.
03:22So,
03:22I really don't know
03:24why the Dolphins are having him
03:25hanging in the wind here.
03:28I was listening to Baldy this morning
03:30on Joe,
03:30and he was like,
03:31he goes,
03:32you think like somebody
03:33would scoop him up right away?
03:34He goes,
03:35I don't think so.
03:37Maybe a coordinator.
03:38Maybe.
03:40Like,
03:41do you,
03:41if Mike McDaniel did,
03:43let's say today,
03:44we get the news.
03:48Mike McDaniel,
03:49out.
03:51You think we're going to get
03:52that report of like
03:52nine people are after him
03:55as head coach?
03:56No.
03:57I don't think so.
03:57No.
03:58Maybe one.
03:59I bet he gets an interview.
04:01Weaver's getting a couple interviews.
04:03Which,
04:03by the way,
04:04he was kind of like,
04:06I don't know.
04:06There was something weird
04:07about the way he was talking
04:08about Anthony Weaver too.
04:09I was like,
04:09what are you,
04:10rats off a ship off him too?
04:11What are you,
04:11one of these guys
04:11you can't get along
04:12with any of your
04:12defensive coordinators?
04:14Well,
04:14that's it.
04:15I think that's another thing.
04:16It's like,
04:16if you're rats off a ship
04:17off Weaver
04:18and you continue to place,
04:20we continue to go through
04:21defensive coordinators
04:22with Michael McDaniel,
04:24like at what point is like,
04:24there's only one
04:25common dominator left
04:26and it's you,
04:27buddy.
04:28It's you.
04:29The Dolphins have
04:30thanked the Dolphins fans
04:32by putting them
04:33on the elevator
04:34with the message,
04:36thank you fans.
04:38Beautiful.
04:39Thank you so much.
04:40I really appreciate it.
04:41I really appreciate it.
04:43Some of the responses
04:44have been,
04:46you may be miserable
04:47for like five months,
04:48by the way.
04:51Another guy says,
04:52it literally does not matter
04:53if y'all don't get
04:55John Harbaugh.
04:57Another guy just says,
04:58Harbaugh,
04:59Harbaugh,
04:59Harbaugh.
05:00Elite Marino goes,
05:05fire McDaniel.
05:08Like,
05:08what did they expect?
05:09Another guy goes,
05:11Notorious Fantasy goes,
05:14y'all haven't won
05:14a playoff game
05:15my whole life.
05:16Show some thanks
05:16by doing something notable.
05:18I know y'all just
05:19a social media person,
05:21but you can probably
05:22run this team
05:22better than Stephen Ross.
05:23I know I'm just yelling
05:28at some random.
05:30This poor,
05:31like 20 something
05:31year old girl.
05:32Pretty much.
05:33She's like,
05:34damn it.
05:34She's like,
05:35I'm just a girl.
05:37Please.
05:38I thought this was cute.
05:39Another guy goes,
05:40another subpar season.
05:41At least Chubb
05:42didn't single-handedly
05:43ruin it like he did
05:44the last few years
05:45when he threw his helmet
05:45onto the ground
05:46in a fit of rage,
05:47whipping yet again
05:48on what should have been
05:49a game-ending sack
05:50against the backup
05:51quarterback in Tennessee.
05:52Oh man.
05:55These comments
05:55are really good
05:56and the gifs.
05:58One guy just goes,
06:00the 84 Chambers goes,
06:02yeah,
06:03thanks for nothing.
06:07I think you guys
06:08better go get
06:08John Harbaugh.
06:09I'm just going to say.
06:09I think they're
06:10better go get,
06:11hey,
06:11you're so good
06:12at building buildings,
06:14Stephen Ross.
06:15Can you build
06:15a football team,
06:16please?
06:17Clearly not.
06:18And not get caught
06:19tampering and not
06:20do it ham-handedly
06:20and not be a buffoon
06:22about it respectfully.
06:23Like,
06:24you're obviously
06:24a smart man.
06:25You've made a fortune.
06:26That's great.
06:27You've got some qualities
06:28about you.
06:30For once,
06:31can you just get
06:32the guy who can
06:33build your football
06:34team correctly
06:35and also have it
06:38all on the same page,
06:40okay?
06:41Don't,
06:42by any means,
06:43just go get somebody
06:44like a buffoon
06:46with Jeff Hyland
06:46with Joe Philbin
06:47and think that's going
06:48to work because it didn't.
06:49And then,
06:50don't have Joe Philbin
06:51be forced with a GM
06:52like Dennis Hickey
06:53and think that's going
06:53to work because it didn't.
06:55And then,
06:55when you get somebody
06:56like a Brian Flores,
06:58you know,
06:59maybe check his temperature
07:00a little bit
07:01if he's cool with tanking
07:02and also,
07:03if he would be cool
07:04with Tom Brady,
07:05check those boxes
07:06before you bring
07:07that stuff up
07:08after he's hired.
07:11And then,
07:12dude,
07:12if you think
07:13you're going to get
07:14Sean Payton,
07:15for the love of God,
07:16get Sean Payton first.
07:19And I didn't even
07:20talk about when you
07:20screwed up the last
07:21Harbaugh one this hour.
07:24So,
07:24please,
07:26just do this
07:27in order of operations,
07:29okay?
07:30Remember that?
07:31Please excuse
07:32my dear Aunt Sally.
07:33Man,
07:34I haven't heard that
07:34in a long time.
07:36Stephen Ross,
07:37please,
07:39for the love of God,
07:42excuse me
07:43and my dear Aunt Sally
07:44because she is also
07:46really tired
07:47of your nonsense.
07:50Do this normal,
07:53get rid of the coach,
07:54and then take that
07:56oodles of money
07:57and go get me
07:58the other
07:59Harbaugh brother.
08:01And if not him,
08:03somebody other
08:04than,
08:04you better get Tomlin.
08:07But I am tired
08:08of his long
08:09press conferences
08:10and mediocre offense.
08:13Amen.
08:20Just bring it to anyone.
08:22Just do this
08:23normally.
08:25All right?
08:26No scandals.
08:27You're already,
08:28it's already leaking
08:28that you're talking to him.
08:30Well, you have a coach.
08:31Now it's leaking.
08:33You're telling all your gym kids,
08:34what do you think
08:34about the other coach?
08:35You know what that means, dude?
08:36Fire your coach.
08:38You don't want him.
08:39It's okay.
08:40It's your organization.
08:41You're allowed to do that.
08:43You're allowed to do that.
08:45You're allowed to move on.
08:46No one's going to put you
08:47in meanie jail.
08:49For God's sakes,
08:51stop with the charade.
08:54You know you don't want him
08:55as the coach anymore.
08:57Move on.
08:58So he can move on.
08:59He can go back
09:00to the warm bosom
09:01of Kyle Shanahan.
09:02And we can all just
09:05go about our merry lives.
09:07But if you,
09:08I swear to God, dude,
09:09if this ends with you,
09:10with us all thinking
09:11you're going to get
09:12John Harbaugh
09:13and we're still stuck
09:15with Mike McDaniel
09:16and he ends up
09:17and Harbaugh ends up
09:18with the Giants,
09:19dude,
09:20you're going to become
09:21an even bigger laughing stock
09:23than you already are,
09:24which is pretty hard,
09:25by the way,
09:26in a football sense.
09:27And yes,
09:29I'm sure if your hip
09:31will allow it,
09:31you could dive into
09:32a pile of coins
09:33like Scrooge McDuck.
09:34And that's nice.
09:36But you're a loser owner.
09:38You have done no winning.
09:41So let's start
09:42with baby steps.
09:44Correctly,
09:45get rid of the coach
09:47because you don't want him
09:48very clearly.
09:49I mean,
09:51you hired
09:51the most vocal critic
09:53of him,
09:55Troy Aikman,
09:56to sit in on
09:57every interview
09:58and something tells me
10:01those reviews
10:03of him have not been positive.
10:04He's carrying a bat around.
10:07So
10:07do us all a favor.
10:10Put the guy
10:11out of his football misery.
10:13Let him move on.
10:15Maybe he'll get
10:16the Browns job.
10:17Maybe the Titans
10:17or Cam Ward.
10:20You guys see that
10:21Jason Garrett
10:21was interviewing
10:22with the Titans yesterday.
10:23I felt terrible
10:23for Cam Ward
10:24when I heard that news.
10:25If Cam Ward,
10:26if Mike McDaniel,
10:28I would love,
10:29I would pay money
10:30to see a conversation
10:31between Cam Ward
10:32and Mike McDaniel.
10:33Like good money
10:34I would pay.
10:35I'm just saying.
10:37Because I think
10:37he's going to look like
10:38Mauro Cristobal
10:39receiving that fruit basket.
10:42He was so mad.
10:43He was so angry.
10:44It's going to be
10:45Cam Ward's face
10:46if Mike McDaniel
10:47is his head coach.
10:47Honestly,
10:48it's like,
10:48what is this?
10:50Did I actually need this?
10:52Why?
10:52There are no gifts
10:53in football.
10:54What are you doing?
10:56The only thing
10:57that's a gift
10:57is when Julian Sane
10:59gifted Keontae Scott
11:00a touchdown.
11:01That's the only gift.
11:03Other than that,
11:04give me my,
11:04take your basket back.
11:06But I'm serious.
11:06I'm Steven Ross.
11:07I swear to God, dude.
11:09You can't blow this again.
11:11You can't.
11:12I mean, you can,
11:13but I'm really trying
11:15to hope that you won't.
11:16What about the son-in-law?
11:17Can he not be an idiot?
11:19I don't even know you, sir.
11:20But it seems like,
11:22you know,
11:23you're in the Ross family now.
11:25Do us all a favor.
11:27Make sure that old Papa
11:29does this correctly.
11:31In fact,
11:32go to him and be like,
11:33Papa,
11:34shouldn't we fire
11:35Mike McDaniel first?
11:37Shut up, Danny.
11:37I know what I'm doing.
11:38But didn't you get
11:39caught tampering before?
11:41Now, I don't know why
11:42his son-in-law
11:42sounds like that.
11:43But until you,
11:44he doesn't have his football
11:46cojones yet.
11:47So until he does,
11:48I'm not giving him
11:49a real voice.
11:51Until then,
11:52you're Danny boy.
11:53That's who you are.
11:55All right, Danny boy?
11:56So until you come
11:57and give me a Harbaugh,
11:59that's how I'm going
11:59to do your voice.
12:02And Garfinkel,
12:04enough of your nonsense too.
12:06You have done a lot
12:08of money making around here.
12:10All right?
12:11You walk around all cool
12:12with your glasses,
12:13with your swagger.
12:14You'll make sure
12:17that he does this right too.
12:18I know he listens to you.
12:19You built a damn racetrack
12:21in the middle of our city.
12:23That's crazy.
12:25We weren't supposed
12:25to get a water park.
12:26Not too much effort.
12:27Not too much.
12:29Just tell Tom Garfinkel,
12:31make sure he does this correctly.
12:33Because if he blows this again,
12:35where he's like,
12:35let's just talk about
12:36firing Mike McDaniel
12:37and then we'll maybe
12:38get a new coach.
12:39And if we don't,
12:39we got Mike McDaniel.
12:40Can somebody just grab
12:42Steven Ross and be like,
12:43you did this already, dude,
12:45with the same last name guy.
12:49So I'm begging you guys,
12:51please don't embarrass
12:53the fan base with it.
12:54You've already done it
12:55quite enough
12:56with the lack of winning
12:57and all of the scandals.
13:02Don't do this again.
13:04Do this correctly.
13:06Send Mike McDaniel
13:07on his merry way.
13:09You very clearly
13:10don't want him.
13:11And that's fine.
13:13That's that's
13:14completely a prerogative
13:15and then have a normal
13:17search for head coach.
13:18Okay.
13:19Somebody says,
13:20did Leroy get the GM job?
13:21Yeah, that's actually
13:21where he is today.
13:22He's on a Zoom meeting.
13:23I would not be mad at that.
13:25Like, I'd be so thrilled.
13:30You know who would love
13:30a fruit basket?
13:31Leroy.
13:32Oh, no.
13:33I don't think he would.
13:35He doesn't like fruit.
13:37It's not.
13:37There's no fruit in there.
13:38Jay Figg.
13:38He likes fruit.
13:39He doesn't like fruitcake.
13:41He doesn't like
13:42many things, actually.
13:43He would love that basket.
13:43That's it.
