It's time to acknowledge Wayne Huizenga

  For me personally, I don’t have nor will have any hate for the man. I think he’s one of those “nice guys” that tried to do the right thing, but got bit on the ass sometimes because of it. The end justifies the means……..and he has now put us into a great position through his hire of Parcells and Co. to do some great things. Maybe one day, we’ll look back and see that one of the best things we had was Mr. Huizenga, without him, no matter what you say……this wouldn’t have happened.

  Shula13…..get yourself an icon…..you put some good post up, you deserve better than that SBnation generic. : )

I felt like I was one of the only people here who likes H as an owner, while everyone else blames him for Jimmy, the Stache, Saban, Cam, etc etc etc.. We all supported each move until it blew up in our face. H did what he felt would take his team to the top. He consistently got the big-name hire that everyone else was after, like you said. And now, on his way out, he leaves us with the Best of the Best in Bill Parcells. And he sells the team to a man with DEEP pockets, who’s said he’s willing to spend to win. What more could you want ouf of an owner? At least he’s not Jerry, Al, or Cuban right?

I love Wayne, He has given as much money as needed to this team just to make it better. He brought in the big name coaches, the big name GM’s and has done what an owner has to do to make the team better. Just sometimes those things didn’t work.

I don’t know how Ross will do but I really hope he has the same mentality of Wayne.

i dunno…i think im 50/50 on Wayne always…he sold the Marlins and shattered my baseball dreams when i was a kid.

Thanks for commenting guys – like Nicky said, we all supported the decisions until it blew up in our face.
Wayne has been a class act – I can’t comment on the Marlins, but for my beloved Fins, Wayne is a huge fan.
I’ll get myself an icon soon!

You have to love an owner who is willing to do anything. His last move and probably his biggest as an owner was brining Parcells as a last minute steal from the Falcons. Even if he is gone his fingerprints are all over the turn around this season. For that and that alone I thank him, he never gave up trying to win.

If you’re like me, you’ve probably grown to like Wayne Huizenga through the years.

I guess I’m not like you. I hate H. Wayne Huizenga. The guy has been a knee-jerk of an owner and has allowed corporate stiffs too much control in football affairs.

He cares for the team as much as he would any other business. That’s it. Nothing more or less.

The fate of the Dolphins would have been the same as the Marlins (wait, it kind of was anyway) had the Phins done better under Huizenga.

He wanted Johnson to win quick and then he could sell the team.

Hated Johnson. Hated Saban. Huizenga allows his political and religious beliefs to interfere too much with sports decisions.

It happens on Sunday. But football ain’t church. Thankfully we brought in a guy who could care less about a player’s spiritual beliefs. God doesn’t win football games, despite what Ray Lewis might say.

Actually, I’d say it like this: God doesn’t win football games, Ray Lewis does.

No offense meant here. We’re all Dolphins fans. I just think that guy should have stuck to things he knows. Like garbage.

But I’m with Phinisher, he is a business man.

Although it was a good article Shula13. You do make an impressive argument
