MERGED: Dan the Man visits Dolphins Practice/Marino visits Dolphis pratice

[arnoldu]

Why doesn't Dan become the QB coach? I'm serious, that would be awesome

 

[King Madison II]

did you hear that guy "...that won't wash off will it?"

he said that while marino was signing a marino jersey that the guy was wearing. come on man, is he for real?

I think i know it was , it was mercury 40 or jimi .

 

[IAFINFAN]

What Marino had cant be taught!

That is very true. Marino has probably forgotten more QB knowledge than than these guys will ever pick up. He might not be able to teach them to be more like him but he could be huge in bouncing ideas off and learning what to look for in certain situations. They call Dan the Man for a reason.

Rats, I thought Dan was coming out of retirement to play one more year!!

Because great players normally don't make great coaches.It would be hard for Marino to teach because it was just natural to him

 

[PHINZONER]

anyone think marino will rejoin the dolphins front office in some aspect in the next few years?

YES!!! Now that the moron is gone. They told Dan to go on vacation for 5 weeks after the senior bowl. That way he would not be around for the draft. He liked Rivers before the wagon did. He wanted him in Miami. Wanny and co did not. If you were the type of guy Dan is you would step aside if you found out that you were a PR figure head too.

 

[PHINZONER]

I would hate to not know the playbook, the defense, every route for every player,blocking schemes and all that goes w/ if you were learning under Dan. You would be drilled like a private in the Marine Corp

Dan could throw a twenty yard out pattern between three defenders for a touchdown... Would you like to see Gus Ferotte try that?

I would start Dan against the Steelers this week if he wanted to play and let Gus and AJ duke it out for back up duty...

Few fries short of a happy meal...too funny. Marino had some zip on the ball, he always throws hard, you could see even as the guy caught it...with "umph" kinda let out by the recieving guy

i was thinking the same thing seriousley:mad:

 

[DeathStar]

i want marino to join the front office somehow. Can be like an advisor so he can get his ring if we win a super bowl.

don shula is vice chairman of the team.

i bet he doesn't do jack crap.

 

[Califin]

Seems if it wasn't for those lost summer sausage legs..

I'd swear that arm still has zip in it, and a mindset that would grasp, compete for, and solidify by weeks end, starting dominance.

:sleep:

Just curious - What is the source of your information ? How do you know they told Dan to go on vacation and that he wanted us to draft Rivers etc.... ?
I would love to know what REALLY went on during the short time that Dan was in the front office last year.....

Just like his throw from the podium at the Hall. Plenty of zip left. If I squinted real hard I could almost see him in pads. If only.......
