Peter King On Marino Being Let Go From "Inside the NFL"

As per the thread title:

"But I think CBS made a major mistake in not including

Dan Marino in the cast. As someone who worked with

Marino for six years on the HBO "Inside the NFL'' show, I

saw the magnetism he brought to the show every week,

and I saw when we went in the field how much the public

worshipped the guy. I listened with respect to the opinions

he voiced on offensive football and quarterback play that

were right on the money; he's been railing, correctly, over

the years, about Donovan McNabb not being in the

shotgun, and how much it has hurt the Eagle offense, and

he's so right. I do understand the reticence to have the two

-white-quarterbacks-on-the-set thing, but Marino is

synonymous with the show, and I think the public will miss

him greatly on Showtime."
