MIAMI — Dan Marino and Kim Bokamper don’t often discuss dementia or brain-related ailments when they get together with former Miami Dolphins teammates, such as they did Wednesday at the Don Strock Diabetes Golf Classic at Miccosukee Golf & Country Club.
“I don’t talk about it much. … We’ll all go through it at some point sooner or later,” Marino said. “You don’t want it to be sooner.”
Even though such topics don’t make for popular conversation, many ex-Dolphins are aware of situations such as Hall of Fame linebacker Nick Buoniconti’s, which was documented by Sports Illustrated this week.
