Too long, didn't read. Slackers!

Too long, didn't read. At least give your opinion on the topic, which is clear

Yeah, but you guys are saying this in the middle of a 9 game winning streak. Its the point Im trying to make. If I would've asked this 2 weeks ago, there will have been posts saying he should be fired for not handling the bullpen, etc. right. And I saw some of those threads a couple of weeks ag

We Bad News Bears! This was the motto of the 2007 Florida Marlins. Loss after loss piled up, mainly because of bad pitching, which caused pitching coach Rick Kranitz to be let go, and they finished off the year with a 71-91 record. Last place in the NL East, even behind the Washington Nationals. So as anyone in their right mind would guess, the expectations coming into the 2008 season were pretty bad. Some "experts" predicted 60 wins , some 70, but it didn't go any higher than that. The Marlins had the same nucleus from the previous season, so there was no reason to believe that they were going to be any better. What the experts failed to realize, though, was that this was a young roster, and they were going to be 1 year older this year, so they would be more mature. The team also brought in veteran leader Luis Gonzales which helped in giving advice to the young players and by being a "clubhouse prescence". The season started against division rivals New York Mets. Former NBA Player Mark Hendrickson was given the start, and the game did not go well for the Marlins. The Mets won easily. But after that opening series, the Marlins started racking up a lot of wins, and finished off May by leading the NL East by 1/2 game and with a 31-23 record. This was one of the best starts in franchise history, and though some "experts" were saying it was too early to tell if the Marlins were for real, expectations were rising and some fans started thinking playoffs. The Marlins spent the next 2 months battling between 1st and 2nd in the division. And by the end of July, playoffs started looking like a reality. But in the month of August, the Marlins started slumping, blowing leads, not scoring runs, and just losing heartbreaker after heartbreaker. The Marlins went down to .500 for the first time in awhile, and they were about 10 games back in their division, and even farther down in the Wild Card race. Pressure was turning on manager Freddi Gonzales, and many people, including myself, thought that he might be fired at the end of the season for the late season slump. But you know? These are the Marlins! Anything could happen. And in the middle of September, the Marlins started a short winning streak, about 3 games, something they hadn't been able to do in awhile. And to help the cause, the teams they were trailing, the Mets and Brewers started slumping. The Brewers even fired their manager Ned Yost. Unexpectedly, the winning streak started getting stronger, and Marlins fans and players duddenly started "scoreboard watching", and after their opponents kept losing, the Marlins are now 4.5 games back in the wildcard race and 5 games back in the Division. But whatever happens, with this winning streak, Freddi Gonzalez's job has probably been saved. He has brought excitement at this point of the season for the first time since '05 when the Marlins were in the other end of a streak. So unless Freddi Gonzales starts cursing at Jeffrey Loria from the end of the dugout, he will stay, and hopefully bring a championship to Miami this season. What do you guys think?

haha. That's the funniest thing I've heard in awhile. Would he still stay in Baseball Tonight?

Dude, all I could see in the preview on the post was FL Supreme Court rules referendum, so I was like: f***!

And once again, we finish on the road

Havent watched in a while and going to game. How has our lineup looked like lately?

Chris Quinn re-signs. Championship, here we come... Make fun of him all you want, but he was one of our best guys out there last year(hard to do, huh?), and he is a very smart PG with great 3 point shooting, who has some potential if he can pick up some speed. I am hoping for an up tempo style offense this season with Marion coming over from Phoenix, and many young guys. We should have no problem doing that. I am really excited for this upcoming season

In my opinion, this should not happen. In a company, ownership is ussually transferred from father to son. So the current owners, their grandparents funded the nazi's. For some, it might have been their fathers! That's a pretty big deal, considering most people values are those of their parents. So just avoid the situations, especially with the amount of Jewish People in the NY area I'm not saying my parents are racists....but they are atleast bigots. Most older hispanics are, sadly. I, on the other hand, even have a black friend! Yeah, but that's because you have switched environments. Or at least your family has. Would you have had any black friends in your/your family's country? Probably not. But these people are still in Germany

I was in 3rd grade in South America. I had no idea what the WTC was. So people started leaving 1 by 1 since the Israeli embassy ordered it. We did not know what was going on. I remember watching all the images, and I had no clue what was really going on then either. Was the 2nd explosion really shown live? Another question, why didnt they evacuate the 2nd building after the 1st explosions, or did they?

7-9! That sucks. I really need to rebound from this. Last week was a week of obvious scores, and I sort of went on a limb out there with my predictions

I'm glad I moved outta Homestead. Then again, Orlando isn't exactly "safe" from hurricanes. Figured that out with Charley, didn't ya? :mischief I lived in Orlando during Charley. Everyone from Tampa got hotel rooms in Orlando, and the storm ended up hitting Orlando. Moved from Orlando the day after. Was still going to move
