Question is: will that actually happen?

From a fantasy perspective, you probably don't want to play the guy. Hell, before he even started shouting out his strange goals, the Bleacher Report had already listed him as one of their "must bench" players of 2011. But if you don't have him on your team and just want to witness what will happen, here's why we think he won't get kicked out.

While the Sporting News thinks he's an egomaniac, we like to think he's only trying to shoot some life into the struggling Dolphins, who go into Sundays match up staring at an 0-4 hole. Plenty of people were pissed off by what the guy said, but after all, this is a game we're talking about. Sure, the players on the field are making millions of dollars, but they're still just throwing around a pigskin, so why not let them have some fun?

Of course, Dolphins fans just want to see the team win. So they probably wouldn't welcome any of their players being ejected from the game prematurely. While we fully believe what Marshall said at the time, we think that having a few days to think over his comments, he'll probably calm down a bit and try not to get kicked out. Besides, if he were to actually get sent off the field, we imagine it could be the last time he ever suits up in Miami again. And as passionate as he might be, the guy likely also enjoys the paychecks he gets, which is why we don't see him getting kicked out of the Jets game.
