January 10, 200917 yr I do not get the 97,03,09 you do the math one... I have done the math, am I stupid. 93-97 is 5 years 97-03 is 7 years or 98-03 is 6 years 03-09 is 7 years or 04-09 is 6 years... it doesn't work I must be missing something, because I do not see any math that says "they should win in 09" Unless we are doing 5, 6, 7 then 2010 would be the year....
January 10, 200917 yr Author 97...98,99,00,01,02 03...04,05,06,07,08 09 Bold=Championship years ok, but getting to 97 since the teams founding we would have 93...94,95,96 97...98,99,00,01,02 03...04,05,06,07,08 09 I guess the theory is ignore the first 4 years and go from there..? Fair enough, hopefully that doesn't win =/
January 10, 200917 yr Yeah, it has nothing to do with the years before 1997. Basically what they're saying is we win a title every 6th year
January 10, 200917 yr Author Yeah, it has nothing to do with the years before 1997. Basically what they're saying is we win a title every 6th year Still isn't right. Techinally they just won 2 titles in 6 years, or they won 2 in 10 years. Which would of made more sense for every 5, but that was blown in 07/08 depending on how you count. Oh well :confused
January 11, 200917 yr That slogan blows anyway. I agree. I dislike it heavily. Im in agreement also. Originally I thought it was alright but IMO there is another slogan which is perfect for the upcoming season, and it looks like several think the same way I do
January 11, 200917 yr FTR I don't think we should be discussing these - wasn't that the purpose of Admin locking the poll thread? But I guess I'm wrong if he hasn't removed this thread?

No harm in simply making a few general comments on some of the slogans. It would be a different matter if people were 'ganging up' to elimanate certain slogans however as that wouldnt be fair

Most of these comments aren't too harmful; there are certain people on this board who IMO could say certain things to sway the vote, but this thread isn't too bad.

January 12, 200917 yr All I'm saying is that all the cool kids are voting for "Fishing for October"...
January 12, 200917 yr All I'm saying is that all the cool kids are voting for "Fishing for October"... Dammit i'm not cool. DO the Math!, Do the Math!, Do the Math!
January 12, 200917 yr Author All I'm saying is that all the cool kids are voting for "Fishing for October"... Dammit i'm not cool. DO the Math!, Do the Math!, Do the Math! this is why Florida kids are failing the FCAT test huh? The math hardly makes any sense. :banghead

January 12, 200917 yr The Math one makes sense. Anyone care to explain "A Groundbreaking Season". How does that slogan represents the Marlins? Or better yet is there another meaning behind it that I don't know of?
January 12, 200917 yr The Math one makes sense. Anyone care to explain "A Groundbreaking Season". How does that slogan represents the Marlins? Or better yet is there another meaning behind it that I don't know of? Groundbreaking --> breaking ground on the new stadium. I guess the only positive "groundbreaking" achievement possible is winning the division, since we've already won 2 WS's. But that's enough to make it legit IMO
January 12, 200917 yr FWIW, I think it'd be cool to have the nominators of each slogan make their respective pitches. If not now, maybe when we get down to some designated number, like top 3 or top 5 or something.
January 13, 200917 yr The groundbreaking season one is horrible because it has nothing to do with the 2009 Florida Marlins
