Irvin already stirring the pot down here in Miami

[burmafrd]

Marino might be the greatest QB to never win a championship. Miami never really had the team to win it all; they were always lacking something. It was like Denver with Elway for so many years; they always got their butts handed to them in the SB. It was not until they got Terrel Davis and a solid D that they won the big one.

Not true in TEAM SPORTS.
You have football confused with Golf, Tennis, etc.

THIS.

I see this from people on this board all the time but here is my challenge to you. Go back and look at the offensive stats on the teams he has been on and then come back here and tell me how bad he was. At least 4 times that I can think of, his teams have been in the top 5 of the NFL. Yes, he had a noodle arm when he got here but that doesn't detract from how good he was while flying under the radar for his entire career.

I'm too young for the 80's, but off the top of my head Kareem Abdul Jabar and Jon Avery come to mind.

...Oh wait, you said great RB. He had none. Abdul Jabar was the ONLY Marino runningback to rush for over 1,000 yards.

He didn't call him great, he called him a superstar. And please don't tell me that Dan wasn't a superstar or I will have to lose all creditability for your opinions....:laugh2:

Andra Franklin..Mark Higgs! LOL

I remember stories being told of Jimmy wanting a more run-oriented offense, but Marino would have none of it. Of course, the Dolphins had a hard time getting a good running back to augment an aging Marino.

If then was now when good running backs are a dime a dozen, Marino might have gotten his ring.

On any given day, have you ever noticed that, at the conclusion of conversations with friends or co-workers, they (for whatever reason) rest their face in the palm of their hand..? Or experience seizures..? Or try running over you with their vehicle..?

I think Irvin might be one of the worst talk radio hosts of all time. He doesnt know anything about any sport but football. Maybe he has a better chance of success in Florida where he won't have to compete against the Ticket.

Ahh, I don't think his listeners are tuning in for his analogy on baseball or hockey...

Obviously not. All I'm saying is he is a one trick pony which over the long haul doesn't work in sports talk radio.
