In addition to getting arrested during the offseason, Mauia did not show that much on the field last season.

Who cares what Taylor wants to do after football. He has been a solid player for the Dolphins and has always been there through thick and mostly thin. Trade him to a superbowl caliber team so he has a chance at a ring. The Dolphins owe him that much.

I'm so sick of hearing about the Taylor/Parcells quandry......These two are both football guys....Do I Really think that Jason was bothered by the fact that Parcell's didn't throw a parade for him when he visited?...And if you were Parcell's would you be extatic that your best player and leader is not coming to not so "voluntary" workouts when a whole new regime has been put in place, but instead getting fresh with a ballroom dancer. No and NO!!! But that doesn't mean these two already hate each other....Parcells knows Taylors value both on the field and revenue wise, so that's why he set the trade value so high on him...Heck, I think even Marino was dangled a time or two....Parcell's won't trade him, Taylor is a Dolphin in '08 and if we have a bad season then Taylor retires in '09, but if the team shows promise Taylor in '09!!!
