Marino the reason you became a fan?

Mercury Morris, Larry Csonka, and Jim Kiick made me a Dolphins fan.

Nope. I became a fan when Marino was loading up his diaper.

'1970'
 
Christmas day game against KC. And (since I live in the Buffalo area) 0 for the 1970's!!!!

To top it off, once I was old enough to truly understand football, I just hated to watch Joe Ferguson for the Bills. He was a total loser.
 
I became a fan when they drafted some QB from Purdue, named Bob something or other.

I don't think anyone was watch him because everyone was busy paying attention to OJ Simpson making everybody miss.

Ferguson was the classic good athlete with no heart. He was the opposite of Bob Griese. He symbolized the loser mentality of the Bill in that era.
 
As a child of the 80s I can safely say that Marino was the main reason I became a Dolphins fan.

It was just so exciting to watch that offense rack up points. Hope we can recapture some of that magic this year.
