May 23, 200818 yr Everyone on the show seemed to agree the Marlins were for real. But they said that the Marlins would likely win division by default because everyone else in the NL East has proven not to be reliable.
May 23, 200818 yr You know what is funny. The New York media is still in denial. I was at home for lunch today and I happened to come across the Mike and the MadDog show on YES. They were talking about the Mets and the NL East. They not only discounted the Marlins completely from contention but said that the MEts still should only be worried about Atlanta and Philly. They did mention the DBacks getting swept by the Fish but used that to discredit the Dbacks by saying that thier hitting is worse that hey thought and right now the NL is wide open. Those guys really really hate the Marlins.
May 23, 200818 yr People in Chicago say the same thing about the Marlins. I think they are just bitter from 2003

I hope we beat the hell out of MadDog's Giants this weekend

May 23, 200818 yr Tim Kirkjian was just saying this morning the Marlins have "no right" to be where they are and something about it being fraudulent or a fraud or something akin to that.
May 23, 200818 yr Tim Kirkjian is an idiot. If you win baseball games, I think you have a right to be in first place. Its funny how mad everyone is at the Marlins for winning but talked good about them and their young talent when they are losing.
May 23, 200818 yr Tim Kirkjian was just saying this morning the Marlins have "no right" to be where they are and something about it being fraudulent or a fraud or something akin to that. He's another idiot. Give these chumps a couple of more weeks and they'll start jumping on the band wagon. If it ain't The Mets, Yankees, or Boston, it ain't news to them
May 23, 200818 yr I've heard Buster Olney give us a good amount of credit. Didn't he say a week or two ago that we are the real deal and will be in the race come September?
May 23, 200818 yr When you're proving the experts wrong, most of them find it easier to discount what you're doing or chalk it up to luck than to give the team credit.
May 23, 200818 yr Tim Kirkjian was just saying this morning the Marlins have "no right" to be where they are and something about it being fraudulent or a fraud or something akin to that. Tim Kirkjian was also the one in 2003 who said up until the end that the Marlins would not win the Wild Card. The guy is a tool with a capital T.
May 23, 200818 yr To be honest, I would prefer these talking heads to stay off our jock. The last thing they need is a bunch of blow hards jumping on the bandwagon.
May 23, 200818 yr Last night I was watching Sportscenter and although they had a decent amount of highlights and talked about how well Miller pitched, they had to follow it with: "The Marlins, are winning but fans still aren't showing up. Only 13,000 showed up last night which means the stadium was 60% empty." Bunch of douche bags.
May 23, 200818 yr People in Chicago say the same thing about the Marlins. I think they are just bitter from 2003 People hate us cause we're heartbreakers. People only love ya if you've got a notable star or two. Sadly, when you're perceived as a bunch of nobodies, lots of critics take that and run with it.

Those guys really really hate the Marlins. Right now the only team the Mutts should be worrying about is the Nationals... they're probably closer to them at this point :lol Tim Kirkjian was just saying this morning the Marlins have "no right" to be where they are and something about it being fraudulent or a fraud or something akin to that. If he actually used the words "no right" with any semblance of credbility or assuredness... I will find Kurkjian and punch him in the face... I've heard Buster Olney give us a good amount of credit. Didn't he say a week or two ago that we are the real deal and will be in the race come September? Peter Gammons.... (But he likes claiming the "weaker" teams can surprise all the time)
May 23, 200818 yr If he actually used the words "no right" with any semblance of credbility or assuredness... I will find Kurkjian and punch him in the face... I think it was "no business"
May 23, 200818 yr Tim Kirkjian was just saying this morning the Marlins have "no right" to be where they are and something about it being fraudulent or a fraud or something akin to that. Man, last night Kirkjian was giving us, and more so Miller, some love. How things change in 12 hours.
May 23, 200818 yr Man, last night Kirkjian was giving us, and more so Miller, some love. How things change in 12 hours. He still said, in that segment, that we had 'no business' being where we were. The only guy that gave us unconditional love was Orestes.

People only love ya if you've got a notable star or two. Sadly, when you're perceived as a bunch of nobodies, lots of critics take that and run with it. Because Hanley Ramirez isn't a notable star.

Man, last night Kirkjian was giving us, and more so Miller, some love. How things change in 12 hours. I don't think Kurkjian saying we had "no business" being there was meant as a slam....I saw him on BBTN last night, and really, he was very complimentary. When he said that, he meant that no one could've seen this coming and no one was expecting it, and looking at our roster, it's hard to believe we're there.
