Education

Ex-Dolphins Quarterback Becomes 'Dr. Dan' (Marino) at Pittsburgh

June 06, 2008 05:17 PM ET | Alison Go | Permanent Link | Print

Arguably the University of Pittsburgh's most famous alumnus, Dan Marino told grads at commencement to have an impact on their community and to live their lives in ways that cannot be regretted.

"You want to look back and say that I did the best I could; I gave it my best shot; that I worked hard and followed my dreams; that I made a difference in people's lives," he said. "If you can do that...you will have peace of mind, no matter where life takes you."

A nice sentiment, coming from a madly successful, record-breaking NFL Hall of Fame quarterback. I guess that's what he tells himself when he thinks about the Super Bowl Championship that never was.
