Heh! Miami's been owned since the beginning! (Hey, I'm a West-Coast guy! I moved to Florida, again, not by choice).
I don't get it, though. Dol-Fans as far north as Daytona would go queer for Dan Marino!
I saw a group of men at Publix in Boynton Beach, FL, all wearing either Marino jerseys, or Marino-related paraphernalia, and they must have stocked up for the game because it was the very first time I had ever seen a cereal called Marin-Os. Three shopping carts full. This was shortly after Katrina struck Florida as a tropical storm/minimal hurricane. Instead of buying water, they bought Marin-Os.
I'll bet that sales of Papa John's Pizza in Florida south of Orlando must have sky-rocketed after seeing Dan marino on their commercials.
