Dan Marino Sues the NFL Over Concussions. Just Kidding, He Didn't Mean It.

NESN -  Dan Marino made headlines on Monday when it was revealed that he was one of 14 former NFL players to file a lawsuit against the league over concussion-related issues. It turns out that Marino’s actions may have been a bit premature, as the Hall of Fame quarterback quickly backtracked from his actions on Tuesday. According to a source, Marino filed the suit by accident and plans to withdraw the lawsuit that was filed with the U.S. District Court in Philadelphia last week. “It was never Marino’s intention to initiate litigation in this case, but to ensure that in the event he had adverse health consequences down the road, he would be covered with health benefits,” the source told the Sun-Sentinel. “They are working to correct the error.”

This is so wacky that it has to be concussion related. You don't file a lawsuit by accident. I'm pretty sure you have to go to an attorney's office and explain to him that you want to file a lawsuit. I see a couple of scenarios here:

Scenario number 1: "Laces Out" Dan blacked out from post concussion syndrome and wrote his own lawsuit and mailed it in to Roger. When he awoke from his blacked out state, someone told him what he did and he immediately retracted the statement. 

Scenario number 2: He actually did file the statement, fully knowing what he was doing and Roger mailed him a fat check to keep him quiet.

Personally, I'm gonna go with number 2 because that's how our world works today. People getting shut up by the big wigs and nothing gets solved. Maybe Dan can convince Jim Carrey to make a third Ace Ventura with the money and that way we all benefit.
