What does /lit/ think of Marino?

most overrated qb of all time,
>no rings
give me a break

>>8668155

Fuck off man, just look at the stats.

>>8668155
Joe Namath is more overrated.
50% completion rate.
220 interceptions and 173 TDs
65.5 QB rating
Threw no TDs in super bowl win

Yet was a five time pro bowler and in the hall of fame.

>>8668166
>his only legacy is constantly getting overridden by players much better than him
>he was the last relevant thing to come out of Miami besides the Rock

why haven't dolphins fans just offed themselves yet

>/lit/ - Literature

>>8668168
nobody thinks namath is good though, he was just a playboy who is famous for being part of a great story about the new brash generation defeating the old, somber heroes

Marino is more patrician than 90% of this board.
When was the last time you lost 22 pounds with Nutrisystem?

>>8668212
Some people must have thought he was good to put him in the pro bowl 5 times and induct him to the hall of fame.

>>8668229
he was popular, a fan favorite

>>8667500
I doubt anyone here's even heard of Orlando Innamorato or La Gerusalemme Liberata.

>>8668463
Who did they play for?

>>8668463
I have. Shit, that was taught in school when I was 16.
Marino sounds familiar, we may have mentioned him in passing. Did he write lyric poetry?

>>8668885
Yeah, his most famous work, L'Adone, is composed of over 40000 verses in ottava rima.

>>8669163
I checked my old schoolbook, yes, we read two of his sonnets, and Adonis is mentioned.
That epic isn't lyric poetry tho

>>8668463
I did, studied them too. Because of living in Italy, of course.
