Dolphins confirm that Sparano not involved w/ emergency landing of airplane

74

I just received word back from Dolphins spokesperson Harvey Greene. I asked Greene if Tony Sparano had undergone any kind of medical procedure recently that the team could give an official comment on. He said the team doesn't talk about offseason medical procedures done on players or coaches. But he did say he isn't aware of anything being done on Sparano - though he's often times not even told about procedures done on players, either, during the offseason. But he added the following line: "I will say there was a fan rumor from May 13th that I believe was on your site about a flight making an emergency landing due to a medical emergency involving Coach Sparano which never happened." So there you go. That incident never happened. Let's put it to bed and move along.
