Dolphins president Eddie Jones denied a story by ESPN's Chris Mortensen that said Huizenga was considering buying out the final three years of Washington coach Steve Spurrier's original five-year, $25 million contract. Spurrier has led the Redskins to a 5-10 record so far this season.
"The only focus this organization has now is to beat the Jets," Jones said, referring to the Jets-Dolphins game at 1 p.m. Sunday at Pro Player Stadium.
"There has been no discussion either internally or externally about anything other than that."
Spurrier said he hasn't heard from the Dolphins and shot down the premise he might be contacted.
"If we're 5-10 and somebody thinks I might go somewhere else, that's probably flattering, whoever's starting them the rumors," Spurrier said. "Usually, when you're 5-10, the rumor is that you're about gone from wherever you are. I don't pay any attention to many rumors and things like that. That's all they are.
Spurrier has canceled his weekly radio show next Monday, and intends to depart for a two-week trip to Florida less than 24 hours after Saturday's night's finale against the Philadelphia Eagles.

Well I think that the Post could probably print that any other time and it mean nothing more than him going to play some golf and return to his old stomping ground.
But who knows?
I actually posted the clip because usually when everyone is denying vehemently that something is going on.... something is going on.
I can see it now...
" In return for Spurrier and his remaining contract, the Redskins received a 7th round draft pick in 2035, two rolls of toilet paper and a bag of cookies as compensation."
Sean Taylor was one of a kind, may he rest in peace.
Come on SS is a God in FL we get Jason Taylor and a 1st rounder...I can dream can't I
I posted that from the post because I find it interesting that a 5-11, or 6-10 coach is taking off so fast, damn doesn't he have any parting words for the team

agreed...let him go for nothing besides getting out of the $15m owed him and hire a GM to decide who coaches....let's cut our losses and distance ourselves from this fool
God bless our troops and Joe Gibbs.
We'll miss you, Joe.
