All these injuries and speculation of how long players will be out got me thinking I don't know why it popped into my head, but if anyone is familiar with Phil Hendrie ( and if you're not you're missing out on comedy gold- comedic genius).
The guy is a talk show host who can do many voices & back in his days in Miami he used to have a fake bookie as a weekly guest, and the day after the game in which Marino got injured (most just initially thought is was some sort of leg strain) he went into this whole ruse about how doctors we're going to have to remove his foot with a long bs explanation and the station got flooded with calls by people in disbelief including one caller driving with his kid when hearing the news broke into tears.
The description doesn't do the man's talents justice as the whole point of the show is a parody of news talk and he would have on fake guests that would take more and more absurd positions and unwittingly callers who were duped would often call in irate even as things would reach such a nonsensical point.
