Ireland said the samething, it was an error not to communicate what was going on with Sparano. They informed everyone that OC Henning has been let go and that the search is on for a new OC. Sparano wants to be more explosive next season. Ross vows to deliver a winner for the Dolphin fans. Based on twitter reports, Sparano didn't make eye contact with either Ross or Ireland for the entire 45 min. presser.

How would they know? The guy never is without his sunglasses!!
(Yes i am aware its a medical condition)
Beyond that though...what a gong show. I admire Sparano for staying with them even though Ireland (who knows better even if Ross didnt) showed zero tact in how he dealt with the situation. I guess with the looming CBA fiasco, Sparano would have a hard time finding a job so the decision to stay is likely a lot easier in this case.
Ross can want to bring a winner to Miami all he likes....but the first thing he needs to do is get out of the damn way and stop making football decisions. He is, from what we have seen so far, starting to look like Jerry Jones or Dan Snyder. Let your football people make the football decisions.
