As if the world needed another reason to dislike the Miami Dolphins, team owner Stephen Ross, a New York real estate billionaire who bought the team in January, just added Marc Anthony as a minority owner. Yes, you read that correctly.''I'm not doing this as a singer; I'm not doing this as an actor,'' Anthony said. ''(It's) just because I love football. Steve and I, our visions are in sync, and this is a great, once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to be a part of Steve's vision."I doubt Anthony has any cogent thoughts about Pat White, Chad Pennington or the Wildcat formation. He's probably only qualified to judge whether or not Bill Parcells' ego can go toe-to-toe with Jenny from the Block's. Inexplicably, Anthony joins Gloria and Emilio Estefan in the team's rapidly expanding, star-studded roster of minority owners. Earlier this year, after entering into a partnership with Jimmy Buffet, the mayor of Douchebagville, er, Margaritaville, Ross renamed the Dolphins' stadium Land Shark Stadium in recognition of Buffet's eponymous beer, the apparent centerpiece of his Margaritaville enterprise, and catnip for Parrot Heads everywhere.
It's going to be tough to beat former owner Wayne Huizenga's era of ineptitude, but Ross is already off to a solid start.
