January 5, 200719 yr When ESPN shows highlight clips of various players they show a disproportionately high number of their successes/failures to be taking place against the Marlins? I first noticed this about a year ago and ever since, without fail, there is always a clip (or more than one) of the player in question (say Roger Clemens) striking out Miguel Cabrera or getting Juan Pierre to ground into a double play. I think one of the guys who puts the highlights together at ESPN is a big Marlins fan. If you haven't noticed it before... you probably will now.

I've noticed this too, but I've never wanted to mention it. It's probably just because we just notice since we are Marlins fans. If we were Rockies fans, we'd notice the same thing.
January 5, 200719 yr I notice it in just about every highlight for Roger Clemens, but thats about it so far. Makes it look like Clemens pitches every night at DS
January 5, 200719 yr I'm 99.9% sure the reason is that Pro Player, being a football stadium, allows for more "unique" camera angles, especially from behind homeplate and dead center.
January 5, 200719 yr i thought they just do those shots against the braves to make us look bad. oh well, to a fan's avail. but seriously, i've seen them do a bunch of shots from dolphin stadium, which is probably from the camera angles they can get from the stadium compared to the other fields, where most of them are just plain. i bet there are also some aesthetics involved, including the half empty stadium (not an insult, stating facts), lighting and a few other factors we don't know about. or it could be that they don't like the marlins or braves. :confused

January 5, 200719 yr Yes, I have noticed this, although it seems to me like the Marlins are mostly shown in negative ways (striking out, giving up HRs).
January 5, 200719 yr What can I say we are just that DAMN GOOD! I love to be hated on, why? THINK ABOUT IT!
