Dan Marino: Breast Man?

by Dan Fogarty | 11:51 am, November 29th, 2011

Poor Dan Marino. He had to be the guy shown on camera, possibly staring at the breasts of an impossibly gorgeous lingerie model on Sunday’s NFL Today. But while much has been made of Marino’s possible peekaboo tactics while Lily Aldridge (there to promote the Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show) presented her football picks, the former Dolphin may have also tried to cover it up: at one point, he gestured toward her notes and made a joke, as if to say, “This is what I’ve been staring at for the last 30 seconds, America. Don’t judge me.”

So: was Dan Marino looking at her notes, or was he merely trying to distract viewers from what he was really looking at? Was this an earnest attempt at small talk from a CBS studio analyst, or wily maneuvering by a nine-time Pro Bowler? Completely innocuous, or a case of the hungry eyes? You be the judge. Marino’s wandering begins at the 1:52 mark.

Yes, he’s staring at her boobs. No, I don’t blame him. In fact, EVERYONE is staring at her boobs and that’s great since that’s her job and she’s very good at her job.

You can be a leg or ass man but no matter what we all appreciate a nice pair of breasts

This is perhaps one of the most logical arguments I have ever heard in my life.

What’s the point of putting something on display if no one is going to look at it? Chris V. is right, even as a woman, my eyes go straight to the boobs.

It kinda looks like he’s looking at her sheet on the desk. You can’t really tell, but I can’t imagine he’d be that blatant.

Think my favorite part is at 2:01 where he does the “I’ll just take one more quick look”. Blink and you might miss it.

I’m Dan Marino, bitch. Enjoy yourself

She’d probably go for Marino. Don’t think she’s interested in a ring.

This is kind of ridiculous. Has anyone here ever been on camera? He’s obviously looking at her notes and setting up the stupid joke. He’s been doing television for years and can’t imagine he’d get caught staring like an idiot at some chick’s boobs.

I don’t get the feeling that Lily Aldridge is there to advertise the football expertise that’s imparted by Victoria’s Secret bras.

Then you don’t know Dan Marino, my friend.

That joke can be seen in it’s original form on Deadspin comment boards.

After Marino’s “Crying Game” scene in Ace Ventura, this might be surprising.
