  1. I am going to the Saturday game. I will be at Ferg's across the street from the Trop by 2PM to watch the USA vs England World Cup game. Let's all meet at Ferg's. For those that don't have tickets yet, we can walk over to the stadium and get seats in the same area. BTW, I am driving down from Jville.
  2. I actually printed out my tickets. You can't beat the convenience. As for people who have questions in regard to the ballpark and area. It is an awesome little ballpark. Excellent concessions and sitelines. It is most likely the best AA facility out there. For those out of towners that make the trip here and need to get a hotel, look into staying at the beach. Better area than downtown with more to do. Only a 20 minute srive at most to the stadium.
  3. Looks a bit Pittsburghy but it is quite nice. The old uniforms were a bit too bright when pitching in Road to the Show mode in MLB 09! Those caps will be big sellers here in Jville. We have the largest group of Steeler Fans outside of Pittsburgh, and they will most likely buy them in droves
  4. I just bought 4 tickets. I ponied up for best available and got 4 in section D1. $32.50 per ticket for something this close to the action can't be beaten anywhere. Is it Spring Training Yet?
  5. I will be there on Saturday. The concert should be pretty cool too.
  6. Brawls at baseball games are not a good thing for attendence. Baseball is billed as a family friendly event. Lowest ticket prices in all major league sports, Sunday theme events that cater to kids such as running around the bases. Often there are give aways for fans under a certain age. Miami locals need to save their brawling skills for when the hated Jets visit down there. Us North Florida fans will keep our end of the bargain when the vile Steelers and their lowlife fans show up here in Jax.
  7. The Yankees constantly create conflicts within baseball. Their 200 million payroll is not getting them WS championships. They lost 5 of 6 to the Nats and Fish, but of course it is never their own fault. Their fans are the most arrogant in the sport. It is always a lame excuse. Now their fans will claim this game did not exist. I really don't think the game would be replayed because normally one game does not make a difference in the standings. You never know though if the Yanks or Marlins for that matter are 1 game back in say late August.
  8. I usually come down for about 4-5 games a year. I decided though I would rather come down for a less popular series than this one. I go to see my Fish play and not the team they are playing. I despise NY Fans of both teams. I would rather attened when my ticket purchase makes a little more of an attendence difference, it is easier to park, and the beer / bathroom lines are short and sweet. Just my take on this series. But to all my Black and Teal Breathen going this weekend. Represent us well and Go Marlins!
  9. Mets fans are worse than Phillies fans by far. Like em or hate em Philly fans are true to their city. I am not from there but have worked with a lot of people from there who are die hard sports fans and support all of the teams from their city. Mets fans are a combination of an arrogant NYer with a little brother complex becuase their big brother Yankees are always first and foremost in their media outlets. Throw in the Jets with that mix and that is one disgruntled fan, a Jet / Met fan that is.
  10. It has just been announced there will be a AA vs. AAA affiliate game up here in Jax on Thursday April 2,2009. It will also be a thirsty Thursday throwdown which normally means $1 Buds. I definitely plan to go to this one. Let's pack the first game in the Baseball Grounds with NE Florida Marlins fans.
  11. yeah I hate that too, I'm stuck with the 95 Comcast offers. I've sent so many emails to Comcast to pick up the extra Sun-Sports games, guess there's not enough support for it. I am hoping now the Suns are a Marlins affiliate there will be more interest in the parent club up here.
  12. You know it's big news when Cape makes an appearance. Who is he and how did he get over 24,000 posts? :o I'm a Marlins fan that used to have more time to post, but has grown so busy that I rarely do anymore. I posted this because many old timers on this board joined a campaign I ran to get the Fish on TV around Florida. This was our last major hurdle and it has been toppled. Cape, Thanks for all your work on this. I have a question regarding AT&T U-Verse in Jacksonville. Do you know if they get the 150 games or just the 95 like Comcast does up here? Their rates with internet seem so much better than DirecTV. The deal breaker though is the extra Marlins games. I will never leave DirecTV for a service that only offers the 95 games.
  13. I love going to Suns games now. Great stadium, good food / beer prices. Now I will be going to even more games. That would be awesome to see an exibition game or two with the big boys. Maybe the Marlins could move one series a year to Jax. Next year's series against the Padres would be a good fit or maybe the Astros or Pirates series would be a better boost. I will go to any Marlins game played here.
  14. Maybe so, but I'd say UM fans have a little more room to work with compared to UF's new wealth. All of a sudden they're the "real U" - so says some fool on the Gators - and the best team the state of Florida has ever seen. Pff. We are a "real U" because our university actually sees the big picture. Not only do we sink money into our football program, but we also put money into non revinue sports such as gymnastics so the Gator Nation can have pride everywhere. Also, we have our own stadium on campus and don't have to lease one from an NFL team like some so called "U" does. :mischief
  15. I like Florida over Miami by 20 which means not a close one but Florida does not cover. Go Gators!
  16. Teal is a difficult color to match. The Marlins, Jaguars, Dolphins, and Mariners all use shades of it, but when you examine them close, the colors are very different.
  17. lol it was a joke, u think i would spend 90 buxon that, lol i got a hanley ramirez jersey for that. but a custom made 10 bux t shirt would be nice :thumbup I gotcha, here is a site for designing T-Shirts. http://www.zazzle.com/ The best thing about it, 100% unofficial so the Mutts get nothing from it.
  18. Sun-Sentinel article a few bits: How could the same front office that dumped Miguel Cabrera, in part, because of a perceived poor influence on Hanley Ramirez have sat Manny at the head of the table? ... Will Manny outproduce Hermida the rest of the way? Probably so, but there's more to this game than raw individual statistics. For starters, who would have played right field? Certainly not Manny, who hasn't played there since his Cleveland days. Josh Willingham? He and Luis Gonzalez might have shared right field, which would have made a weak defense even more suspect. How about the loss of Hermida's left-handed thump in a lineup that already lacks balance? That would have left Mike Jacobs as the only regular threat from that side. Not to mention next season when Manny goes and signs somewhere else it was a complete loss for us. We can win this division with the team we have. Manny or no Manny we will most likely not win it all this year.
  19. No offense dude, but I would rather spend my $ on Marlins gear. Buying any type of Mets jersey adds to their sale numbers.
  20. Yahoo Sports is a joke. It is where hack writers go to die. On the football side they have the ever so talented Michael Silver who was fired from SI. On the baseball side they have this hack.
  21. I think last night was a rough loss for them, and they will come out hung over tonight. Let's get to Pedro early; their bull pen is soft.
  22. Over at the Mets board, theyre all talking about Tommy. What kind of comments did he make? I was at the game, so couldnt watch the broadcast obvously Tommy referred to them as "front running New York fans who are all heading for the exits". The exact quote just replayed was "Lookie Lookie the Mets fand are all goin home." I think it was funny.
  23. Here's one since the Mutts fans are now whining that their kids were picked on for wearing Wight jerseys: FLORIDA MOMS, DON'T LET YOUR BABIES GROW UP TO BE METS FANS!
  24. If you are good with graphics, a large marlin spearing that lame Mr. Met mascot.
  25. If we are going to get Molina, then we need to make a move ASAP. Jorge Posada is going to need season ending surgery so there is a good chance the Yankees might be interested in him as well.
