The Miami Dolphins already have a slew of celebrity owners. Only now are the Phins becoming glamorous.As in, G-L-A-M O-R O-U-S. Glamorous. Glamorous, glamorous. You get the point.
Fergie -- female vocalist for the Black Eyed Peas -- is set to become the franchise's latest celebrity part-owner. It's music to the ears of the legions of hip pop/dance fans -- a genre I just made up -- in South Florida.
Owner Stephen Ross is compiling a roster of talent off the field that may have already eclipsed the goods on the team. Ross hopes the celebrities will create enough buzz to keep fans in the seats even if the wildcat loses its charm.
In addition to Fergie, the Dolphins have Marc Anthony, Jimmy Buffett, Gloria Estefan, Jennifer Lopez, and the Williams sisters on board. You know what that means, one killer conga line. Conga!

I love Fergie, I truly do, and if she can afford to buy into the Dolphins, then God bless her. But don't use the excuse that Rush Limbaugh would put the NFL in a bad light, when a recovering meth addict and a woman who wet her pants onstage was just approved to buy into the Miami Dolphins.

WILDCAT isn't a gimmick. If you go back 50 years you'll see it was wildly used by all teams. If you go back in time and tell them that every play had a QB, they'd call that a gimmick. Jerk.
