I can't believe how rude and disrespecting most of you posters are being. It's absolutely discouraging and something that this site is not known for. I'm absolutely disgusted by how most of you are going around displaying your opinion. It's disgusting and I'm ashamed to read threads like these especially from marlinbaseball.com. We're 5-2 with a team put together by Beinfest of prospects. Beinfest has built this team that you're cheering for and he has brought in some GREAT band-aid closers who have won big in free agency the season after. He's bound to miss on a closer sooner or later. He's made one mistake and it's only been 7 f***ing games. He's built a great team, a GREAT team out of NOTHING. Florida is THIRD in the MLB in Runs scored, SECOND in hits and FIRST in RBI's. Who the hell has put together this unbelievable young team? Beinfest. This team is absolutely killing the ball out there and instead of celebrating the fact that we're making contact and scoring runs, we're calling for the head of our GM and Coach? You guys are being f***ing ridiculous and I'm disgusted and hope severe punishment is thrown out towards the people who made those statements. I'm absolutely disgusted and ashamed.

Baseball. Florida Marlins baseball. Damn I miss it, let's get it on..

Ballin is probablly the worst song in the world. All rap is just trash at this point. If people can write a song about putting sneakers on then we might as well make a song about rally caps in the 7th inning. Ignorance is Bliss.

Congrats CabreraFan.. During the No-No we should have tried harder to get your sign on the jumbotron Glad you had a good time..

I'd like to apologize, I was pretty anxious and couldn't keep the camera straight then I lost my mind and forgot I had the camera in my hand. After the out I was toooooo excited to hold it still..

Uhm, I got excited and kinda missed the out.. but you can get the gist of the crowd with the noise. I had great seats thanks again TSwift. 2,000 fans sound like 40,000 :thumbup edit: kinda forgot to post the link

I have yet to go to a game this season, but I had bought tickets a month or so ago to catch a game with my parents. My mom was diagnosed with Neuro-Cardiogenic Syncope and was hospitalized and we were unable to go to the game. She has been hospitilized on 3 different occasion with the least amount of time spent at the hospital being 5 days. She is doing much better now, they're regulating her blood levels(She got a blood clot after complications from a prior surgery 2 months ago) and she's on a heart monitor. She started going back to work and I'd like to relieve her stress a bit by sitting back and enjoying our Florida Marlins compete in the Wild Card race.. ^Not a lucky story, just a sentimental one.

The Pimp > Gagne.. Then watching Sportscenter and have them show that game first, before anything, with no music just the highlights.

Sadly, I recieved the exact email response..

Why do people on these forums keep insulting another member of the board because of the difference in opinion.. Attack the post not the poster..

The more I think about how young we'll be the more I'm anticipating if these players will pan out in any way they've been projected to, this team is going to be EXCITING. Hopefully if this organization can get a stadium locked up they can finally dish out long term contracts that might actually expire with the organization. Lock up Willis and Cabrera 2008.

Yes.. I'm young enough to have only followed the Florida Marlins and if they were to relocate I'd cheer and root for that organization that filled my baseball void for my 17 years. This is the case, unless, another team is brought to South Florida.

Maybe the Marlins at the time were in talks to bring in a stud CF in another trade?

Every thread on these forums since Spike has started posting has an unneeded insult and he claims his Oracle type powers to predict Willingham wont start next season. Please, stay on topic and just stop starting debates that have no direction or overall interest for the site. To get back on topic, bring this speedster in. I'm excited about a young team with alot of upside. Question is do we keep Dookey and Castillo to help anchor all these young players or do we trade away those veterans and throw all the rookies in with the lions, sit back and enjoy the show. No Matter what next season is going to be exciting and interesting.

We're going to be fielding nearly the same team outside, Delgado will be here next season. Stop jumping the gun, sit back and let what happens happen. This team, even if shopping Delgado, will field a competive team because we have two Ace pitchers and Miguel Cabrera. If it wasn't for some players have career lows last season the Marlins would have been in the postseason.

Well I actually didn't catch it. I moreso picked it up after it bounced off two people's hands, off a chair, off a fan's chest behind a seat and rolled up to my feet. But god damnit I got the ball. :lol

I was at my first Marlin's game of the year on Monday. I caught my first foul ball. It was off of Ramirez into section 155. I can now die happy... ...Actually once this offense starts scoring some runs, I can die happy. :lol

Some of you guys on here are really getting annoying with your insults on spelling and grammar... Just because you don't see eye to eye with someone else's opinion doesn't mean you need to lash out and give personal attacks on the poster. Also, if you're going to go out your way just to post in a thread to insult another poster, please, please, please, become more creative. These close games we're losing will come back to haunt us. If Lowell isn't producing then he shouldn't be playing at the moment, simple. According to most of you we have a bunch of 'studs' in the minors why not let them come up and start getting AB in for Lowell's inability to get consistant and see what we get. We know what we have with our Bench. If not we should start our fan favorite 'Mr. Marlin' in for Lowell.

Or let's drop him in the line up since he's hitting so well he can hit without protection. Change it up for a few other guys maybe get their bats hot. The series is lost, so why not try to get something going for the next series instead of playing the same dead beat lineup as of late.

And we've lost both games since friday. Swell.

Mota blew the game. It was tied. Ump call aside the game was going on.? Should we just throw in the towel everytime an ump makes a bad call?? Later in the year we'll get a couple calls and it will even out,it always does. But we did get the game tied and into the 9th. And Mota showed his inability to handle th 9th inning, again. Jones won't see a lead in the 8th for a while, most likely. Its not new that the people on here hang it on something than the players. Yesterday some people sympathized for Josh, even though he mis-played a couple of the balls himself, and then went on to bash Bill Robinson again. No, what's not new here is that you just come on here and try to pick a fight like the f***ing little prick you are. Maybe, just maybe, you should actually feel something if you give a f*** about what the team does. However, since you aren't a real fan you just pose as one so you can start a f***ing problem with whoever is more pissed at the moment, you don't care when they lose and you don't get happy when they win. You're single point here is too be a less intelligent version of SorianoFan. f***, at least he wasn't a wolf in sheep's clothing. Stay away from the f***ing Marlins board, we'd like it if people who actually cared about the team or fans of other teams that didn't start a damn fight were the only ones that posted here. 744678[/snapback] Very well said. :owned 744762[/snapback] I am not the one who makes these things personal. Look back at this thread, I made a post, not replying to anyone, and you Juanky immediately respond with name calling. What kind of civility or intelligence does that show? I post the facts and truth and correct people where they are wrong. If they make it personal, that is their own faults. It is not my fault they can't take that they have mis-spoken or been wrong. Take your friend Accord here. He still has provided no proof of where Ramon Castro pleaded guilt, even though he said explicitly he did. He also explicitly said no innocent man has ever pleaded no contest and I promptly found proof refuting that, and he hasn't found proof to back up his own statements. Yet he is okay with lashing out in personal attacks. What kind of civility or intelligence does that show? I think some of you need to look in the mirror and get off your high horses. I don't provoke this stuff, I post facts, usually backed up, and you guys flip out because it is in contrast to what you say or believe. Or you all just attack first, like you did here. 744835[/snapback] I don't think you realize how many people on here think you're annoying and flat out hate you. You get involved on a daily basis in these absurd arguments that last 10 hours, it is totally ridiculous. Everyday someone proves you wrong and you can't handle it, so you change the subject and start arguing over stupid things like symantics. Every single thread you post in is immediately ruined and you turn it into a gratuitous argument that spans a countless number of pages that nobody even reads or cares about. You spent your entire Friday night at home in a 7 or 8 hour argument over mindless garbage that nobody even cares about. This began at around 7pm going all the way to ~2am and you'll most likely be doing the exact same thing tonight, which also happens to be a Saturday night. That is sad. 744863[/snapback] If they want to hate me, thats fine. Life is not all about people throwing themselves at your feet and praising you. Everyday people prove me wrong? How about some evidence? Have you proved me wrong? Have you showed me where Castro pleaded guilty yet? Or have you proven where no innocent man has ever pleaded no contest, because I have proven they have. This thread was not ruined until Juanky decided to shoot back with an attack. Look back, who provoked who? I can't stop people who decide to jump on top of me. If no one reads or cares about it, then no one would post replys. What I find sad is people will make a statement, that is a flat out lie, and then can't admit they were wrong because they were (A) just out to lie or (B) too lazy to check their facts. Because it speaks alot about what kind of person they are. 744866[/snapback] Your answer to everything is another question, you obviously do it to just prolong an argument. You don't care what the subject is or what you're arguing, you just argue for the sake of arguing because you have nothing better to do. In your own twisted way, you somehow take pride in annoying an entire community. Arguing with you is like rubbing your finger nails on a chalk board, grinding is the only word to descrive it. Enjoy your Saturday night out on the town... oh wait. I'm done with you and like Juanky I will not be making another reply to you. 744876[/snapback] I ask the questions to show that people like you can't answer them because they are the ones looking to prlonging the argument. It is simple, where did Castro say he pleaded guilty? If you could answer that, that arguement would be over in a snap, but you press on to other topics, forcing me to ask the same question over and over. I offer and end to an arguement because I am asking a question, generally people won't answer them because they realize the true answer is in conflict to something they originally said and rather drag on with pointless comments without answering the questions. Look, you and Juanky still haven't answered who provoked who in this thread. Why not? Because it might show you two how baseless your arugements are? Learn to embrace the truth its simple. Like I said, your ability to lie and then not acknowledge it when you are proven wrong speaks alot about the person you are. 744885[/snapback] Why has this Thread gone so off track?? This forum is slowly turning into a personal vent of steam toward other posters. Phisphan has a point, everyone is calling for someone's head instead of just looking at the players and acknowleding they're underperforming and being unconsistent. On the other hand, maybe getting rid of Bill Robinson will help the Bats if someone can come in and make a difference. But, the question is who will replace Robinson? The Marlins should have never been in the situation they where in the top of the 9th. The Umpires didn't ruin the game, our relief pitching did.

I'd like to see a Line Up consisting of Pierre Lo Duca Cabrera Delgado Encarnacion Gonzalez Conine Castillo Burnett Give Lowell some time to regroup and find himself. Give Conine a start and move Dookey up there after Pierre.

By the time the new Stadium is built, the area around it will have been bought out and rebuilt with new houses with People who have the MONEY to buy tickets. The fact is Miami will always be a Football town. If two championships in 6 seasons isn't enough, then nothing is. The marlins still have a young organization that not many people grew up watching, like Dolphins. Unless the Dolphins become a low-tier team for years to come the Marlins are going to have to wait until atleast one generation grows up watching baseball in Miami.
