A time bomb

I promise to stop posting sports-related stuff soon, but recently Brian put up a post that included this line "I would like to see Peyton Manning continue his career as the Dan Marino of his generation." This sentiment was most famously and hilariously put out there by former Bengals quarterback Boomer Esiason, who said essentially the same thing while Marino was on the set with him, a scant two chairs away. Marino seems to take it in good humor at the beginning, but by after about twenty seconds he levels a withering glare on Boomer that would have killed a lesser man.

Oh, and for the record, Boomer Esiason lost both Super Bowls he appeared in.

UPDATE: After a bit more research (and by research I mean clicking on a few more links on youtube) it seems Danny boy has an explosive temper when he is in the TV studio. Watch this great reaction to the flub of his line while trying to tape a segment, and note the reaction of people around him. I looks like they have come to expect and fear this type of behavior from the time bomb that is Marino. Awesome. I wonder if Dan got TV etiquette lessons from Robert Novak?

Also, now that I think about it, doesn't Marino look a lot like Tom Jones?
Alas, now that I've made that mental connection, I can't stop singing "Time bomb" to the tune of "Sex Bomb". Good luck getting that out of my head in the next day or two.
