Divas aren't supposed to get tongue-tied, are they?

Well that's what happened to the Miami Dolphins' resident diva receiver Brandon Marshall, who tried to give a cliche answer to a loaded question about having a big game against the Buffalo Bills.

What ensued was the mother of all tongue ties that would even cook Porky Pig's bacon.

"As long as we win, tha...," Marshall started before his tongue betrayed him.

It's clear what he really wanted to say was, "I want Chad Henne to throw me the damn ball every play and I have a really cool touchdown celebration planned for the Bills. Oh, and I'm a beast."

But that doesn't really fly down here, even if Bill Parcells isn't calling the shots anymore. So Marshall swung for the cliche "winning is all that matters."

And boy did he miss.

Even Marshall had to laugh at his goof and acknowledged that maybe he wasn't being genuine in his answer.

"I don't know if yall gonna believe that, huh?" he said.
