I have a bone to pick with Dan "skinny" Marino. Now before i do this let me assure everyone i am a DIE HARD Dolphin fan, and my favorite player of all time is Dan Marino! I have his jersey that i had him sign framed in my office. My best friend is a die hard Denver Bronco fan, and for the survival of our friendship we have decided not to debate who is the better qb because it will end badly!:fire: Simply put, i grew up watching Dan fling it and will always remember the amazing things he did.
That being said......................................................
For the love of God, why does he pick the dorkiest commercials to do!! I had to live down the glove commercials, and believe me my friends showed no mercy on me. Dan, frolicking around in his gloves. Prancing through the snow...OY, i was teased forever. But after years of therapy I got past it and forgave my man Dan. Then last night, as i was getting ready for bed and watching ESPN up comes Dan in his latest commercial for a weight loss product. Ok, Dan was no Minute Bol, (for all of you young folk, very tall and very skinny ex-NBA player.), so this kinda made sense. Then i watched it and was cringing through the whole thing. Especially when he states, "I have a new nick name....skinny." A tear rolled down my eye and i started dialing my therapist! Please Dan, no more commercials. I can't afford the mental health costs.
Note: before some of you very serious Dol-fans start screaming at me...i'm just having fun. No therapist were called or paid during this post. But seriously, i could live without his commercials.:D
 
It's all about the benjamins baby! I'd dress up like a hotdog (ask me about my wiener!!!) if they paid me enough money.
 
Because he is getting paid big bucks to do so. I am sure that he is not breaking the bank as an anouncer so he probably needs a few extra dollars in the bank.
 
He should stick to movies. Maybe he and Ton-Loc should get together and do one of them cop/buddy films...
 
tell your bronco lover that nothing can get worse than elways superbowl commercial a few years ago. i think it was win a trip to hwaii and watch the superbowl with elway. the commercial just showed a pathetic elway with no friends waiting for his phone to ring.....
 
I don't like that meal plan commercial, with that sleazy guy talking about his sex life being "awesome." Its in bad taste, and beneath him. Phrases like "improve your love life" or "boost your libido" is okay, and weight loss products are fine....but that guy being a slime ball should be edited out.

How about the Papa Johns commercial "And now a bigger pan"!

HAHA!!! :sidelol: :sidelol: :sidelol:

Papa John: Hey look! DAN MARINO!

Dan shows up and plays football with the PJ crew then talks about the pizza. Man, I love it!
 
Dans appearance in this third rate commercial Ad, being made out to be the product spokesman, and the primary selling pitch essentially "10 dollars worth of free food", would be an appalling disgrace to subject any Hall of Famer.

As for Marino, it's shamefully beneath him.
 
Here in VA he's also doing ads for a new home development on the James River, which we commonly refer to as 'swamp land'....
