The same day the NFL and the NFLPA agreed to a settlement that will lift the lockout in the coming days the Miami Dolphins organization announced plans to restore the salaries of the team’s employees.
In May the Dolphins slashed salaries as much as 20 percent fearing a work stoppage. Any employee of the team who made more than $75,000 received a 20 percent pay cut. Those making below $75,000 faced a 15 percent pay cut, and anyone below a $50,000 salary received a 10 percent trim.
Employees will be informed today at 4 p.m. all of their lost wages will be restored, and their salaries will return to their normal levels in the next paycheck.
According to a team source, owner Stephen Ross made the decision to restore the pay months ago if the season went off without any setbacks, and he’s fulfilling that commitment now that the 2011 season appears to be unharmed.

Soooooooo. . . . What are the chances our illustrious owner follows suit?
I'd say my chances of marrying Halle Berry (wife would understand), watching the Redskins winn the Super Bowl this year, and selling my house in Miami, for a profit, are COLLECTIVELY better than the Danny doing this.
Hell, he just canned the Matt Terl, redskins.com's blogger.

He doesn't have to do this...
The Redskins didn't cut pay or lay anyone off.

I'd actually say our owner is pretty damn generous. The use of planes during the Katrina event, breast cancer awareness, what he did with all the profits from ST's death. You can't knock his generosity IMO. You can knock his football ownership skills, but I'm hard pressed on anything else. Hell I don't even think he laid off anyone

What do your facts have to do with anything?
