Never To Return

Dan Marino is in the news, but for the wrong reason. He admitted to fathering a child back in 2005 while married with six children. This is a personal affair for him and should not be part of the Super Bowl coverage, but the media vultures like to circle overhead.

If they want to talk about Marino, they should focus on his career. He was part of the illustrious QB class of 1983. He lead the Miami Dolphins to the Super Bowl in his second season. The sky was the limit for him back then.

Unfortunately, he played another 15 seasons and never made it back to the big game. He was elected to the Hall of Fame, but never hoisted the Lombardi Trophy. He wasn't the first player not to do so and won't be the last.

Some of the greatest players never get a chance to play for the losing team. Just look at Tony Gonzalez.
