09/17: Former Dolphin Marlin Briscoe Highlighted in Nike Commercial
Posted by: Patrick
From Dave Hyde: They don't ask if his life of being the NFL's first black quarterback, then quickly its first black ex-quarterback, then quickly a star receiver and just as quickly forgotten and on the streets -- no one asks if that life is real or if it's why he's on TV. "Is there really a Marlin Briscoe High School?" is what the kids he works with at the Boys' and Girls' Club in Long Beach, Calif ., ask. By now, Briscoe didn't think anyone remembered him besides the likes of Joe Namath, who never calls him by name when they meet. "The Quarterback," Namath calls him, showing he remembers. But Nike remembering? You can watch the commercial at YouTube.
