    Miami Dolphins Fins fire Sparano

    Dolphins fire Tony Sparano
    Posted by Michael David Smith on December 12, 2011, 3:49 PM EST

    Tony Sparano is out as head coach of the Miami Dolphins.

    The Dolphins have announced a press conference for 4:15 p.m. today, when they will formally announce that Sparano is gone, Jay Glazer of FOX Sports reports.

    Sparano’s firing has been expected since early this season, when Miami got off to an 0-7 start. Although the Dolphins started to turn things around in the middle of the year, and there was some sentiment that perhaps Sparano could save his job, any thought that he might stick around went away when the Dolphins got whipped by the Eagles on Sunday.

    In four seasons with the Dolphins, Sparano has a 29-33 record.

    Sparano is the second NFL head coach to lose his job today, following Todd Haley with the Chiefs, and the third NFL head coach to get fired this season, with Jack Del Rio of the Jaguars preceding Haley and Sparano.

    Must come in bunches of 3's. Who's next? Looks like teams aren't waiting till the end of the reg season.
