Two more years until Marino can apply to be in the Hall of Fame. Do you guys think he'll make it in his first year?

I don't know dude...I think Ryan Leaf might be eligible that year too

If he doesn't, the Hall of Fame selection commitee should be used as tackling dummies by the Miami Dolphins.

No doubt about it. I mean he is going to be the premier HOF introduction of that year, as Elway is this year. Leaf technically would not be eligible for atleast 3 more years I think. Wasn't his last year in the league in 2000. He was in training camp yes, but he was in the NFL. Asshole of the League award should go to him for that attitude that resulted in ****.

Huh?? How can you mention Leaf in the same breadth as Marino or HOF? He doesn't rate any kind of award good or bad.

The day Dan quit football he was basically already in the HOF .

Now he just needs the bust and the ceremony.

Nothing will ever beat the Kelly-Marino days....funnest games to watch, and great respect on both sides

And the fact that they were both friends was usually nice to see..

Even if it was just the two .

thanks for the heads up. I had a friend tape it for me when it came out or soon after, but it didn't come out well. I put it on tape with the retiring Dan's number game. :)
