April 30, 200620 yr With this season going how it's going...what will you be doing to soften the blow of these losses, our errors, our lack of runs, our bullpen, etc... Me, I'm still going to watch as many games as I can w/ MLB.tv...but I will be rooting for other teams as well. My two other teams...the Dodgers (I live in Cali) and the Blue Jays (I like their hats, the "J"...plus my name starts with a J) Also, I will be trying to watch the Heat...but the last two games, they have me feeling like the Marlins have had me feeling, lol What will YOU DO?

Ive been following the Dodgers a lot this year too. I was born in Northridge. When I hear Vin Scully I feel like Im back in the womb.
April 30, 200620 yr I am getting used to these losses. Its not that I dont care but I try to let them not get to me. Right now I am watching the Braves/Mets game and dreaming of what it will be like for our team to win.
April 30, 200620 yr it really doesnt hurt that much yea, its frustrating... but we have a couple of potential studs on our hands here they are gonna be real good in another year or two
April 30, 200620 yr but we have a couple of potential studs on our hands here they are gonna be real good in another year or two :blink: I agree with Ramp. I agree but we do have some duds on our team too. Once we weed all those duds out things will get better. (CF, Bullpen, Starting Rotation-Moe)

April 30, 200620 yr Just enjoy the game for the little things that go well, and don't expect too much. Lower expectations = fewer ulcers.
April 30, 200620 yr Author I guess what's most difficult, is that we've been 'good' for a while (3 years) and now, doing the 180 thing, is difficult! but I enjoy this team more than 2005s...cause I used to get PISSED when they lost, cause I expected them to win, make it to the playoffs, and who knows... but ANYTHING positive is worth so much more than it was last year to me! Even with this, though, the losses are difficult...so I'll try to distract myself with other things!

Meh, I was ok losing to the Rox, I put money on them this season to in the west. This season I am more focused on the Rox and the Brewers for the NL side and for the AL side, I am paying close attention to the Jays and Tigers.
April 30, 200620 yr Author Lower expectations = fewer ulcers. lmfao! That's so true...thats a 'philosophy' I live by...don't expect sh*t, so that when something positive does happen, it's worth soo much more! :thumbup lol! :mischief :lol Meh, I was ok losing to the Rox, I put money on them this season to in the west. This season I am more focused on the Rox and the Brewers for the NL side and for the AL side, I am paying close attention to the Jays and Tigers. The Reds are also owning in the NL Central! I'm such a bastard though...cause ANY team that our old (2005) Marlins are on, I don't want to win :plain lol...especially the Mets or the Cubs :plain I'm cool w/ the Jays though! :thumbup

My girlfriend was born in Van Nuys, and also lived in Northridge! :thumbup Luckily my family had already moved before 94'. :angel I think the Dodgers have a real shot this year to take down the division. It will be fun following my #2 team.
April 30, 200620 yr I'm just glad I didn't spend money on mlb.tv this year...I'm broke as it is, can't really afford to drop $75 for a team that's gonna lose 110 games.
April 30, 200620 yr What pain? Before the season started Admin Beinfest said, "What's the difference if we loss 95 or 105 games this year?" He knows what he's got. And he's right. This is not a year to look at wins and losses. We have the most loaded team in MLB in terms of future potential from young players. It's interesting to see them make progress.
April 30, 200620 yr it really doesnt hurt that much yea, its frustrating... but we have a couple of potential studs on our hands here they are gonna be real good in another year or two :thumbup What do I do? Think about the loss for a few... Come on MB.com, read some stuff about baseball today and marlins post game wrap, then say... AHHHHHHHHH F*CK it, We'll get them tomorrow! Go Fish!

Usually when I read the players comments I feel better. I can't wait for tomorrows game.
May 1, 200620 yr Bright House doesn't carry FSN so I don't see any Marlins games here in Lake Mary which is a blessing in disguise this year. :plain
May 1, 200620 yr seeing as we are in most of these games and my buddies cubs have gotten OWNED by the brew crew my spirits aren't to far down.
May 1, 200620 yr I cope by having a life outside of Florida Marlins baseball. Sure you do :mischief2 Oh I do... its called LSU sports. Only our baseball team this year is garbage! I still try to go to as many games as I can. But our football team is in shape to possibly win the SEC this year. I also have somewhat of a love affair with the D Rays. So that and the idea of the Marlins getting a stadium helps me over. We could lose every game this year, but as long as we get that stadium I will view this year as one of Florida's best!!!

Yes....it is fun to follow your college team while you're in college. When I went to UF I went to probably 10 games a year. No charge. Had a great time just watching baseball. Don't have a clue how good or bad the team was. They were competitive, but not in the top 10. And college football games when you're a student are fantastic. LSU has a chance....they are in the SEC, and anybody can theoretically win. Very tough team at home. Hopefully you're taking advantage of the many other things to do in college besides watching sports. :cool
May 1, 200620 yr Just enjoy the game for the little things that go well, and don't expect too much. Lower expectations = fewer ulcers. That's the key.
