July 29, 200323 yr lol, yeah okay you called me on that one.... i get excited about spring training the same way. However, you don't see 5 billion calls talking about marlins spring training until you want to puke. At the same time, you don't see Marlin jerseys popping up all over stores when spring training approaches, but I can't stop seeing teal and orange in any sports store, in spite of the fact that the Marlins are, what?, did I hear correctly?, 1 game out of the Wild Card? Oooh, okay - yeah definitely - NFL Training Camp is more important. because this is a football town. the dolphins have been around for 38 years now and have established great tradition (i know, not to the packers level in case phlub reads this) while the Marlins have been around for only 11 years, 10 losing seasons, a strike, and a horrible break up after '97. i would love for the Marlins to get that type of attention, i love the Marlins, but you cant expect them to get "dolphin" type attention. they have to be a consistent winner year in and year out and have to get a new stadium before that can happen.
