Legendary quarterback Dan Marino fathered a secret lovechild with a junior network employee and paid her millions of dollars to keep it quiet, it emerged today.

The former Miami Dolphins star cheated on Claire, his wife of 28 years, with Donna Savattere, a production assistant at CBS Sports.

She’s cute, but Dan’s wife looks great too.
Mrs. Marino is definitely not a Mrs. Petraeus.

Re:

Yeah, Bendy... Dan knocked me up, too!

See... my Marino Lovebot... has the same birthmark--

Guilty... on both counts!

Get a clue, Dan... Use protection!

What difference does it make? Dan... still needs 11 million Latino nannies to get a path to citizenship and membership in AARP!

Well, to be strictly CBS fair and balanced, you cannot help... but agree with Hillary--

That is so true, Bob... and besides pardoning Dan, I've issued an Executive Order making all criticism of Hillary unlawful.

Come along, Bend, you and your hookbot... have displeased the Masser.

My rule of thumb is that if it’s good enough for Eddard Stark, it’s good enough for Hemingway’s Ghost.

I like your style.

His wife is much better looking than the other woman.

That has been the case with 99.999% of the guys I know who have cheated. I get a look at the other woman and think "HER??? Dude, your wife is WAY better looking!"

[jch10]

There is a child involved that will be hurt by this article. Couldn’t they just have kept quiet?

[Buckeye McFrog]

Mrs. Marino’s brother is a morning drive disc jockey in Pittsburgh. He drops his brother-in-law’s name at every station break if he can manage it. Kinda creepy to realize now he must have known about this for eight years.

Eddard Stark himself raised his own bastard son Jon Snow at Winterfell, in his own household.

In the real world, I believe that Benjamin Franklin and his wife raised a bastard son that Franklin had fathered.

Men stray, people sin - not really anything new. :-)

That’s only news if Marino is a registered Republican.

[Hemingway's Ghost]

My first foray into the fantasy genre, this George R. R. Martin "Game of Thrones" series. I'm on A Feast for Crows right now and loving every second of it.

HBO's Game of Thrones is outstanding, too. But as a non-subscriber, I have to catch it on Netflix . . . I cannot wait to see how they did season 2 . . .

Well that oughta make the pregame show marathon more interesting.

Marino’s sister (I think his youngest one) is married to Larry Richert. Claire Marino (I forget her maiden name) was from the South Hills. I grew up in S. Oakland...and though this doesn’t phase me (he supported the child—no abortion), I’m suprised that it’s a “big”’story. I knew the family well (my mom was very good friends with his maternal grandma, Jul. FWIW, Claire and Dan adopted two little girls (from China I believe) after their bio kids (one autistic) got older.

Well, Danno always DID have a “quick release”...

I guess he didn’t use the “gloves” on ALL appendages. :-)

More like Reproduction Assistant.

I see we have a coordinated media attack on the NFL now! They are working overtime to demonize everything NFL!

Who cares? Eddard Stark himself raised his own bastard son Jon Snow at Winterfell, in his own household. My rule of thumb is that if it’s good enough for Eddard Stark, it’s good enough for Hemingway’s Ghost.

Well done sir. Well done.

[NormsRevenge]

woof woof.. all men are dogs yaknow.. at least he ain’t gay.

[angcat]

Someone must have introduced ol Dan to the little blue pill.

[FDNYRHEROES]

It bought him eight years or so.

When was he voted into the NFL Hall of Fame? Maybe that had something to do with it...???

[FDNYRHEROES]

The birth also came two months before Marino was inducted into the Hall of Fame

Yep, answered my own question. Millions given to protect his hall of fame induction...
