The 2009 Miami Dolphins Media Guide is dedicated to the memory of Gerald Small and Maxie Williams. Small, a fourth-round draft choice of the Dolphins out of San Jose State in 1978, passed away on September 27, 2008. He played with the Dolphins from 1978-83, starting every game at right cornerback from 1979-82. The winner of the teams Tommy Fitzgerald Award as the outstanding rookie in training camp in 1978, Small finished his Dolphins career with 23 interceptions, which ranks as the ninth-highest total overall in team history and the fifth-most among cornerbacks. Williams, who was acquired by the Dolphins in the 1966 expansion draft from the Houston Oilers, passed away on July 7, 2009, in Ellwood City, Penn. Williams played five seasons with Miami from 1966-70, starting at left tackle each of his first three seasons with the team before shifting to left guard. Overall, he played in 69 games with 63 starting assignments with the Dolphins.

The Miami Dolphins Foundation was established in 1995 as the fundraising arm of the Miami Dolphins Football Team. The Dolphins, through the Foundation, have made a commitment to the betterment of South Florida youth through a direct focus on, but not limited to, educational, health, social and community service issues. The Miami Dolphins Foundation contributes, whenever possible, to charitable groups that are compatible with the philosophy of the Foundation. Resources for contributions are procured through various fundraising events throughout the year, such as the Miami Dolphins Fishing Tournament, the Miami Dolphins Golf Tournament, Dolphins Auctions, the Scoreboard Celebration Club, gameday raffles and training camp raffles. Organizations and programs the Miami Dolphins Foundation support include the sponsorship of Broward and Miami-Dade Public Libraries Summer Reading Programs, Childrens Book Week, Teen Read Week, the Books and Bears program, Miami Dolphins Outdoor Learning Center at Island Dolphin Care, the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation, Junior Achievement, Boys and Girls Club, Jewish National Fund, University of Miami Sylvester Cancer Center, Coastal Conservation Association, Broward Partnership for the Homeless and the United Way.

The Miami Dolphins understand that the education of the youth of South Florida is of utmost importance. For this reason, the Dolphins have partnered with both Broward and MiamiDade County Public Schools on several extensive programs. In 2008, the Miami Dolphins received the Commissioner of Education Awards for their Partnerships with Miami-Dade and Broward County Public Schools. In 2007, the Miami Dolphins were recognized by Broward County Public Schools with the Partnership of the Year Award for its districtwide partnership. Also, they were recognized by Miami-Dade County Public Schools with the Dade Partner Exemplary Award as the top business partner. Student of the Week Program The Miami Dolphins honor a selected student from each of the partner schools at all of the teams regular season home games. The students are selected by their principals and teachers for their citizenship and classroom achievements. In recognition of their accomplishments, they are presented with a plaque during an on-field presentation. Publix also donates a $25 gift certificate to each Student of the Week. The Miami Dolphins take great pride in playing an active role in the South Florida community. By lending support to both civic and community based charitable causes, the Dolphins are able to make an impact in the lives of those who need it the most. The assistance that the Dolphins are able to provide comes from the teamwork of alumni, coaches, players, cheerleaders, T.D. (the Dolphins mascot) and front office personnel working together toward the common goals of helping those in need and supporting the community that has always been there to support the Miami Dolphins. During the past year, members of the Dolphins organization, including coaches, players and alumni, made more than 550 community appearances which totaled 2,650 hours. The team has also donated 3,200 items to 3,000 different charities, helping them raise more than $200,000 through the donated items.The 2008 Miami Dolphins Teachers of the Year are honored in a pregame ceremony on the field.

EDUCATIONAL PARTNERSHIPStotal of $2.50 goes toward the Foundation. Annually, the sale of these custom license plates helps to raise more than $50,000 for the Foundation.

For the fourth straight season in 2008, many Miami Dolphins players and coaches made the dreams of underprivileged children come true through the teams All-Community Team program. The Dolphins All-Community Team program allowed players and coaches to purchase a block of tickets to all Miami Dolphins regular season home games and donate them to a charitable organization of their choice. Their chosen charities then distributed the tickets to youth groups or others associated with their organization so the recipients had the chance to experience a Dolphins game at Land Shark Stadium. For every home game, the players and coaches treated each of the guests of the AllCommunity Team with a gameday ticket, an in-game public address announcement and scoreboard mention, in addition to a voucher good for a hot dog, popcorn and a soft drink. The following are the Dolphins players and coaches who participated in the All-Community Team in 2008, and the organizations they benefitted:

Wayne Huizenga in the team, Land Shark Stadium, and the surrounding developable land on February 22, 2008. He increased that share to a 95% ownership of the team and the stadium on January 20, 2009 when he purchased an additional 45-percent of both entities. On that date, he also assumed the responsibility of Managing General Partner of both the Dolphins and the stadium, which culminated one of his long-held dreams; Mr. Ross grew up in South Florida and the Dolphins have been a lifetime passion for him.

MIKE DEE

CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER

Mike Dee was named as Chief Executive Officer of the Miami Dolphins and Land Shark Stadium by Stephen M. Ross on May 3, 2009. In this capacity, Dee oversees all aspects of the franchises non-football operations and leads both organizations as a new era of Dolphins ownership begins. Dee came to South Florida and the NFL after a distinguished 15-year career in Major League Baseball, where he played a lead role in the resurgence of two franchises and was a member of two World Series Championship teams. Since joining the Dolphins, Dee has laid out the three fundamental commitments that will guide the franchise during the Ross ownership era: 1) To create a tier one organization that provides the resources to put a team on the field that is worthy of the fans support with the goal of competing for a playoff berth each season; 2) To consistently strive to enhance the fan experience at Land Shark Stadium and aggressively market the team to a broad region and diverse fan base; and 3) To be active participants in the community. Dees MLB career began with the San Diego Padres where he spent eight years (1995-2002), the last three as Executive Vice President of Business Affairs. During this time, the Padres developed an industry-wide reputation for marketing as attendance and corporate sponsorship increased dramatically. The revenue growth provided the stability and resources for on-field success as the Padres made several trips to the postseason, including winning the National League pennant in 1998. Dee also led the effort to develop strong ties and programs for the Hispanic community in San Diego and Baja California which included the Padres twice playing regular season games in Mexico in 1996 and 1999. He was also instrumental in garnering the public and corporate support which led to the approval and construction of Petco Park which opened in 2003 - a facility which ultimately preserved Major League Baseball for San Diego. In 2002, Dee followed his mentor, CEO Larry Lucchino, to Boston and assumed the role of Executive Vice President of Business Affairs for the Red Sox. He was promoted to Chief Operating Officer in 2004, a position he held until his departure to join the Dolphins. During his tenure in Boston, the Red Sox won two World Series titles and set franchise records for attendance and revenue each year including a MLB record for consecutive sellouts dating back to 2003 which stood at 504 as of June 21, 2009, and is still active. Other noteworthy achievements while in Boston include bringing annual concerts to Fenway Park and directing the expansion of the teams business and real estate interests that stemmed from the eight-year renovation of Fenway Park and the surrounding neighborhood. Dee also has a history of working in the Sunshine State as earlier in 2009 he consummated a 30-year agreement with Lee County Florida to build the Red Sox a new, publicly-financed Spring Training facility that is set to open in 2012. In addition to his Red Sox role, Dee also served as President of Fenway Sports Group, a company that he created in 2004 under the direction of Red Sox owners John Henry and Tom Werner. An enterprise charged with diversifying the business interests of the Red Sox beyond baseball, FSG developed a wide array of endeavors across the sports and media landscape, including partnerships with Boston College and the Atlantic Coast Conference, the PGA Tour and Major League Baseball Advanced Media. In February, 2007, FSG acquired a 50% interest in Roush Racing and formed what is known today as Roush Fenway Racing, NASCARs largest race team. Dee served on the board of Roush Fenway as a Managing Director and during that time the team won two notable championships Carl Edwards 2007 Busch Series Championship and Matt Kenseths Daytona 500 victory in February, 2009. Dee is active in many different charitable and philanthropic activities including serving on the board of the Pan Mass Challenge, a cycling event and the nations largest athletic fundraiser which has raised more than $260 million for cancer research. Dee is an avid cyclist and rides in the event each August. Dee attended Franklin & Marshall College in Lancaster, Penn., where he played basketball and earned a degree in government. He currently serves on the Advisory Board at F&M. Dee and his wife, Karen, have two sons, Spencer (9) and Tommy (7).

BILL PARCELLS

EXECUTIVE VICE PRESIDENTFOOTBALL OPERATIONS

Bill Parcells, one of the most highly regarded and respected figures in the National Football League for more than two decades, signed a four-year contract to become Executive Vice President of Football Operations for the Miami Dolphins on December 20, 2007. Under Parcells guidance, the 2008 Dolphins had a single season turnaround matched just once in NFL history. The Dolphins went 1-15 in 2007 and then stunned the league with an 115 record in 2008, Parcells first season in charge, capturing the AFC East title and earning a playoff berth. That ten-game improvement had been accomplished only one other time in NFL history, when the Indianapolis Colts went from 3-13 to 13-3 in 1999. In addition, since 1978 eight teams have finished with a 1-15 record, and the Dolphins last year had the best record of any of those teams the season following their 1-15 finish; they also were the only one of those teams to qualify for the playoffs. But it wasnt the first time Parcells engineered a turnaround of a one-win team. The Dolphins last year were one of only three of those one-win teams to post a winning record the next season; the last team to do so had been the 1997 New York Jets, who Parcells led to a 9-7 record in his first year as the teams head coach after they finished with a 1-15 mark in 1996, a year prior to his arrival there. Parcells success in 2008 extended beyond the playing field to the front office. He brought on board Head Coach Tony Sparano, who in his first year at the helm of an NFL team led that historic turnaround and earned numerous Coach of the Year accolades for his accomplishments. He also named Jeff Ireland as the teams General Manager. Viewed as one of the best young executives in the league, Ireland spearheaded the turnover of the teams roster last year that resulted in the Dolphins ten-game improvement. Along the way, three of his draft choices earned starting positions on Opening Day, with one of them, Jake Long, the first pick in the draft, going on to make the Pro Bowl as a rookie. Of Parcells 24 previous seasons in the NFL, 19 were spent as a head coach, beginning in 1983 with the New York Giants. His head coaching tenure consisted of subsequent stops with the New England Patriots, New York Jets, and most recently the Dallas Cowboys, with whom he served from 2003-06. Over those 19 seasons, his teams put together a regular season record of 172-130-1, and a playoff mark of 11-8. His 183 combined victories rank ninth in NFL annals. In all four of his head coaching tenures, Parcells molded teams that either went to the Super Bowl or contended for a title berth. In fact, coupled with the Dolphins playoff berth in 2008, Parcells became the first person in NFL history to lead five different franchises to playoff appearances. In eight seasons as head coach of the Giants (1983-90), Parcells guided the franchise to two Super Bowl wins, following the 1986 and 1990 seasons. He concluded his stint with the Giants after that second Super Bowl victory, and in those eight seasons, the club compiled a regular season mark of 77-49-1, including six winning seasons among the eight. What makes Parcells run with the Giants even more impressive is the fact that prior to taking over the reigns as head coach in 1983, the team had experienced just one winning campaign in the previous 10 years. He was named NFL Coach of the Year by at least one major media outlet in 1986 and 1989. Following a two-year hiatus (1991-92) in which he worked as an analyst for NBC-TVs coverage of the NFL, Parcells returned to the sidelines in 1993 with the New England Patriots. Although the Patriots posted a composite record of 14-50 in the four years prior to his arrival, Parcells led the club to a 10-6 record in just his second season in Foxborough (1994), while his fourth and final year there resulted in an 11-5 record, the AFC East title and a berth in Super Bowl XXI against Green Bay. Following that 1994 season, he was a consensus choice for NFL Coach of the Year. He also is one of only five head coaches in NFL history to have led two separate teams to the Super Bowl, joining Don Shula, Dan Reeves, Dick Vermeil and Mike Holmgren. In 1997, Parcells moved on to the New York Jets, where he guided the team to a 9-7 record in his first season as head coach. They barely missed out on an AFC playoff berth, following a

Parcells 19

stretch of eight straight years (1989-96) in which the club did not compile a winning mark, including a record of 1-15 in the year prior to his appointment. Not only did the team experience a three-game improvement the following year (1998) producing a record of 12-4 but they captured the franchises first-ever AFC East title. The Jets proceeded to the AFC Championship game for the first time since the 1982 season, where they were defeated by the eventual Super Bowl champion Denver Broncos at Mile High Stadium. Following his three-year stint as the Jets head coach, Parcells moved on to the administrative side in 2000, when he served as the clubs Director of Football Operations, his only year in that post. After another two-year layoff from football, Parcells became head coach with the Dallas Cowboys in 2003, and spent the next four years in that position. In his first year there, he led the team to a record of 10-6 and a Wild Card playoff berth, the clubs first playoff spot since 1999 and its first winning record since 1998. The Cowboys also qualified for the postseason in Parcells final year at the helm. Of the 53 players on the 2007 Cowboys team that finished 133 and won the NFC East, 36 were acquired during Parcells four-year tenure. In addition, 16 of the teams 22 starters at the end of the season joined the club while Parcells was there. Parcells began his collegiate playing career at Colgate before transferring to Wichita State. He then spent 14 years as a collegiate assistant (1964-77), a stretch which consisted of six different schools, including Florida State from 1970-72, where he served as the Seminoles linebackers coach. His first head coaching post came at the Air Force Academy, where he served the 1978 season. He began his NFL tenure with the New England Patriots in 1980 before heading to the New York Giants in 1981 where he served as defensive coordinator for the next two campaigns. Parcells is a native of Oradell, N.J., where he was a member of the first graduating class at River Dell High School in 1959. As a prep performer, he starred on the schools football, basketball and baseball teams. He has three daughters, Suzy, Jill and Dallas and three grandchildren.COACH YEARS Don Shula 33 George Halas 40 Tom Landry 29 Curley Lambeau 331964 1965 1966-69 1970-72 1973-74 1975-77 1978 1980 1981-82 1983-90 1993-96 1997-99 2003-06

Jeff Ireland was named as the Dolphins General Manager on January 2, 2008. He joined the club after a seven-year stint (2001-07) with the Dallas Cowboys, including his last three seasons there as the teams Vice President of College and Pro Scouting. In his role with the Dolphins, Ireland is not only responsible for overseeing and coordinating the college and pro personnel departments, but also helps manage the teams salary cap and player contracts. He supervises all scouting efforts that relate to the college draft, free agency, the Canadian Football League, and personnel of the other 31 NFL teams. Ireland works hand in hand with Executive Vice President of Football Operations Bill Parcells and Head Coach Tony Sparano in implementing a personnel plan to build the Dolphins into a championship caliber team. Inheriting a 1-15 team in 2008, Irelands first season in Miami, he worked with Parcells and Sparano to overhaul the teams roster. Their efforts resulted in an 11-5 mark, the AFC East title and a playoff berth, a turnaround unprecedented in NFL annals. Ireland replaced almost half of the roster, bringing on board 27 new faces, including nine new starters. One of those newcomers, quarterback Chad Pennington, went on to win the NFL Comeback Player of the Year award and finished tied for second in voting for the leagues Most Valuable Player award. Also among the new faces Ireland brought on board last year were 11 rookies who made the team, including eight draft choices, three of whom were in the opening day starting lineup. The teams first pick of the draft, offensive tackle Jake Long, went on to earn Pro Bowl honors

Parcells/Ireland 21

at the conclusion of the season. Ireland added rookie talent beyond the draft, as wide receiver Davone Bess had the second-highest single-season reception total in the last 40 years among undrafted college free agents in their rookie season, while another rookie free agent, kicker Dan Carpenter, led the Dolphins in scoring. In 2007, Irelands last season in Dallas, the Cowboys went 13-3 and won the NFC East title. Of the 53 players on the active roster, 38 had been acquired over the three years (200507) Ireland served as the teams Vice President of Scouting. Seven of those players made the Pro Bowl during that time, including DeMarcus Ware (Irelands first pick as the teams lead scout), fellow 2005 fourth round selections Chris Canty and Marion Barber, 2007 draft choice Nick Folk and two free agent acquisitions that season, Leonard Davis and Ken Hamlin. In addition, since Ireland arrived in Dallas, seven other Cowboys made their Pro Bowl debuts. Ireland began his tenure with the Cowboys as the teams national scout in 2001, evaluating all of the top collegiate prospects in the country. In his four years in that role, his skill as a talent evaluator helped lead to the drafting of four Pro Bowl performers, Roy Williams (who was selected five straight years), Terence Newman, Andre Gurode and Jason Witten. Prior to joining the Cowboys, Ireland spent four years in Kansas City as an area scout helping the Chiefs draft players like Dante Hall in the fifth round and Greg Wesley in the third round. Ireland started his NFL career evaluating talent as an area scout for the National Football Scouting Combine from 1994-1996. Before becoming a full-time talent evaluator, Ireland helped coach special teams at the University of North Texas from 1992-1993. He was a four-year starter as a placekicker at Baylor University from 1988-1991, finishing his collegiate career third on Baylors all time scoring list with 213 points. His 45 career field goals, which included a 58-yard effort against Rice in 1991, established a school record for field goals made. Ireland, an Abilene, Texas native, is the stepson of Kansas City Chiefs Hall of Fame linebacker/center E.J. Holub and the grandson of former Philadelphia Eagles player and longtime Chicago Bears personnel executive Jim Parmer. Jeff and his wife, Rachel, have twin daughters, Haley and Hannah, a son, Riley, and a baby girl, Annie.
