THRILLHO

That's quite a haul you got there.

In years past the entrance for the cardinals was on the complete opposite side of the complex. so you either had to drive over or take a long walk. This year they've revised the layout and everyone is funneled through the entrance on the Marlins side. Closest parking is at the Abacoa skate park.

I went yesterday. The full squad workouts before spring training games begin are the best. Everyone is there. Marlins camp is never too crowded. Its a very nice relaxed environment. I always try to make it out to one or two practices during the week before the first weekend of games. I definitely recommend. I'm not there for autographs. Just excited for the season to begin. A few players may sign when they walk by but most seem to wait until the practice is over. But i never stay that long. Big leaguers came out around 11 am. In years past i've checked out Cardinals practice too but i didn't go over there this time

I sense some fireworks coming up

I’ve watched one game this year.

The theory seems to be they pivoted last minute but I don't buy that. They have a long history of not caring what other people think and just plowing forward with their own ideas. Maybe they thought this was an awesome way to create some buzz, which it was not.

Maybe I have a reading comprehension problem but I was sort of under the assumption they were going to unveil the new city connect uniforms on Saturday only to find out they just announced the first game they'd be wearing said uniform. Massive troll job on the fans. A Marlins specialty.

Fair point. Maybe that should go into the decision making process. What’s a better deal for the company? A tacky logo or no logo? Not all companies are color dependent. Some are. Emirates Airlines have sponsorships all over Europe and they appear in a variety of colors. So they would have more options. also Motorola adopted the padres color scheme for their ad and it looks fine.

At least the colors sort of match. Cincinnati has a blue Kroger patch. Seems like they should have sponsors agree to a color scheme that fits with the uniform

Boca Raton based. Used to be a subsidiary of Tyco

Whenever someone poses the “who do you think of…” question with the original Marlin logo my mind goes to Chuck Carr

Front yard somewhere in the grid to the north of the stadium. Easy access to Dolphin and off you go

According to Nostradamus post on Twitter back in 2019 the Fish are closing in on another title in five years
