I would love to see him try out. The problem with age is the body's ability to heal fast, and lack of nutrients the body retains.


He could do it, but after a year, he would be shot.

Just to much healing he would have to overcome.

He wasn't that great as a pro when he was younger.

Well I always told people give me one year to work out Marino, and I could get him to come play for two years like a beast and win the SB.

My brother could whip him into shape, and he would be so buff, people would be like damn Marino, go get it.

Yep I am pissed that Marino wouldnt give up one solid year to train consistantly and put into a so much better shape, than he was while playing sh.t man he would dominate.

yeah, no kidding!

This is like when Jim Brown declared he was going to come back, but only with the Raiders.

Only, Jim Brown had a history of being great in his prime. All Hershel did was end up on the ass-end of one of the biggest steals in trade history.

Yes, I could never figure why this great athlete didn't do better in the NFL. Was it the team or him?

I'm a huge MMA follower and this guy is a joke of a fighter (don't get me wrong, he could probably kick my ass all over the place). For his age he does well but his fights are side-show attraction type stuff and i'm sure this statement was made to generate some press for Strikeforce, can't see him making a serious come-back in the NFL after being out all this time.

Warner did this when he went to St. Louis. No doubt 40 somethings can still stay in fighting form with the right nutrition and training.

It's just with older folks, it requires, alot more strict dieting, and hefty hefty hefty work outs, low impact, and very intense, with alot of conditioning, and rehabing the body after the work out.

Most people are like f,ck that dude Im good, and Im one of them lol....

However if Marino wanted it bad enough, he could do it, the panzy!!
