Stephen Ross in Miami refused to give him full control, with Jeff Ireland still their acting GM at the time.
And it still gets cited incorrectly.
Fisher didn't ask for "full control" in Miami, he wanted
equal control with Ireland.
Nor did Fisher ask for "full control" with the Rams.
I'm gonna let ya'll have this, since it keeps going down this path.

Fisher and Snead arrived as part of an arranged 2012 marriage after the Rams axed coach Steve Spagnuolo and GM Billy Devaney, and the team outdistanced the Dolphins for the coveted ex-Titans coach. Part of Fisher’s motivation for picking St. Louis was having larger say in personnel decisions, and the organization was structured to reflect that with a partnership between the coach and GM under COO Kevin Demoff.
Sorry man, we can read everything we want in the press but I`m not buying that Fisher or his agent Marvin Demoff did not negotiate the control.
Who in their right mind would just give something so big away? I`m not buying that K. Demoff and Kroenke just decided to throw in "full control". And if so, they better get someone else in control ASAP.
We will never know the full truth, as we wont get that with the media. We could beat this to death, so this will be my last post on the subject.
