""And it showed in as clear a message as possible ahead of Sunday's home opener against the New England Patriots. A group of fans strung together the funds to fly a banner over Hard Rock Stadium with a direct message as to their wishes for the franchise's coach, Mike McDaniel, and general manager, Chris Grier. The banner, which appeared starting at around 11 a.m. Sunday as fans were tailgating at stadium parking lots, read: "Fire McDaniel. Fire Grier.""
""My brother is expecting his first born son this year, and it got him thinking about generational trauma," the fundraising page organizer wrote. "As our family was gathered for the first Dolphins game of the season, he asked an important moral question, 'is it fair to my son to raise him as a Dolphins fan?' They've been trash for 25 years, and with this front office, they will be trash for another 25 years.""
A group of Miami Dolphins fans funded a banner flight over Hard Rock Stadium that read "Fire McDaniel. Fire Grier" ahead of the home opener versus the New England Patriots. The banner appeared around 11 a.m. as fans tailgated, following a 33-8 season-opening loss to the Colts. A GoFundMe started with a $900 goal raised more than twice that amount to pay for the plane. The fundraiser organizer cited concerns about generational fandom and long-term team mediocrity. The Dolphins have not won a postseason game since 2000, and the GM holds the longest tenure without a playoff win.
