And another (rumored) one bites the dust. Hall of Famer and former Dolphins QB Dan Marino, who made a tabloid's list of alleged Dancing with the Stars Season 7 cast members, will not be tackling the parquet. "[Marino would go] chipping and putting with [the stars,] maybe. But not dancing with them," a spokesperson for the Dolphins organization tells the South Florida Sun-Sentinel.

The Dancing team actually has been angling to draft Marino "every year, from the inception of the show," says Marino's manager, "and he's never done it. It's not a time commitment he's willing to make."

The actual legit Dancing with the Stars celeb cast will be revealed Aug. 25, on ABC's Good Morning America. - Matt Mitovich
