LandShark Stadium it is

Apparently the Marlins had to leave town so all the swells could announce the name change to the stadium.

The Miami Dolphins are renaming their home Landshark Stadium as part of a partnership with singer Jimmy Buffett.

Buffett and new Dolphins owner Stephen Ross are friends. They plan to unveil a new logo for the stadium at a private event Friday, where Buffett will perform a song inspired by the Dolphins.

If you weren't invited to the event, and I am guessing you weren't, and want to see the logo, even before it is unveiled, no problem, Sarah Talalay has it covered.

There is a reason she is considered, at least at FishStripes, the best sports business reporter in the game today.

While there is a warm spot in my heart for Jimmy Buffett, I'm breaking into a Billy Joel song (paraphrasing):  It's still JRS to me.
