September 7, 200619 yr Topic: in context of the no-hitter, who do you blame for the Marlins' low attendance? :plain Plaschke: Stadium isn't covered, ownership keeps gutting the team, there's no continuity. DON'T BLAME THE FANS. Mariotti: Stadium is terrible, needs to be downtown. MacMullan: Beinfest is doing a great job putting these teams together when they trade everyone, once people see how the kids play, they should be coming.
September 7, 200619 yr Kind of lame, really. Why not talk about playoff chances/expectations, but stadium issues? What, this is somehow new when someone pitches a no-hitter? It's still a no-hitter anyways.
September 7, 200619 yr Author On PTI: "Does Florida deserve the Marlins?" Kornheiser and Whitlock are slurping on Beinfest/baseball staff. Kornheiser's like, "Someone in this organization knows what they are doing as far as scouting players, making trades..." Whitlock says, "Can these guys come to Kansas City? I'm stuck with the Royals and Le Batard gets the Marlins, who do something incredible every season??"
September 7, 200619 yr what'd you expect? them to mention they were 3 games out of the wild card lol not
September 7, 200619 yr Author I really liked Whitlock's comment about doing "something amazing every year." For the most part lately, that's been true, hasn't it?
September 7, 200619 yr the state of florida. I don't see why loria gets so much hatred. the guy's lost millions of dollars and he's willing to put forth the most money ever towards a stadium, wtf else do you want from the guy? florida won't pay for practically any of it. that's the problem
September 8, 200619 yr Last night on BBTN Karl Ravich called it a "CRIME" that there were only 6k people there.
September 8, 200619 yr there was an article in the local paper making comments about how no one was in attendance to watch the no hitter one of the first things my wife commented on when she saw the game last night was that no one was in the stadium first thing I heard on ESPN radio this morning was cowherd discussing why there are no fans the local radio guys were commenting on it as well it's great that the marlins are getting more attention and I have heard a lot of positives - that is awesome - but with the attention skeletons will be revealed as well and face it - marlins attendance is terrible
