Okay, I call my love of the Marlins an "issue". It controls my life.

 

So, does anyone in your family have a Marlins "issue" (other than you)... parents, brother, sister etc?.

 

 

My parents both have Marlins "issues" :lol . Whenever the Marlins do something good my mom will call me and say "CANTUUU", "Did you see ____?", etc.

My girlfriend and I both have Marlins issues!

my uncle has issues. not issues, but problems. me and my uncle got marlins problems. well, other people call it problems. we call it love GO MARLINS!!!!

well lets see...i have a cousin that plays for the braves organization and a family full of red sox fans...clearly they have issues!

My dad's a Yankee fan, but he rarely misses Marlins games.

I wish I knew someone that had a "marlin issue." I am the only one...

 

They think I'm nuts/retarded/whatever else... :confused

me wife have marlin issue

Me, Dad, Mom, and grandma are all die hardMarlin fans in my household...but my family up in Boston where almost all live there.....yup bosox fans! I can't wait because the week I go to Boston the Marlins have the series there! expect to see me there!!! reppin Marlins in the middle of all the red!

My wife says my son and I have Marlins issues. It's hard to dispute it.

Im by far the die hard in my family butt dad watches alot of games . One of my aunts is a huge Yankee fan and is still mad about 03. The only issue I have is I think my dads seat on the couch is lucky for the fish when I sit in it and when he kicks me out I pace.

I was born in New York and my parents and sister spent most of their lives their, so they are all *silence* Mets fans :thumbdown

I got marlins issues so does my family just after we beat the mets i got two calls with ppl screaming cantu !! lol

me and my uncle too! go marlins!

Living in KY I don't ever see Marlins fans. This is my only opportunity to talk to some.

My parents and onf of my best friends have Marlins issues, and the rest of my friends and family totally accept mine.

Right? Today my faceboob status said "baseball makes life worth living"

Thank you very much, Captain Obvious! :cool

I kid, I kid.

Baseball is amazing.

 

As for the thread, my Dad, Mom, younger Sister, and Grandpa are all obsessed. We text during and talk after every game, unless it's an ugly loss or something. Great family bonding.

 

Erick - I think being raised by a Yankee fan explains the

They don't really bother me personally, but I couldn't not take that wide-open opportunity. :thumbup

you motor-boatin son-of-a-gun

Also, any tips on how to get a somewhat-receptive fiancee interested? She sat and watched the 9th inning with me today of her own accord, so that was very nice but I want MORE. :whistle

Yea, what is funny/ironic is that I grew up in Miami, the home of the luckiest (I mean best) baseball franchise in MLB history, but I only discovered how awesome baseball was my senior year of college (long after both 1997 and 2003). Everyone else was lining up their job and planning out the rest of their lives, and all of a sudden I realized that spending 3 hours at the stadium watching an admittedly slow-paced sport with an endless supply of beer and peanuts is the definition of awesome.

I'm planning to go to law school in a year.............maybe there's some sort of correlation here :cool

It may be slow-paced, but it's beautiful. There, I said it. And I won't even qualify it with a "no-homo". Clearly, you could not have gotten into law school unless you were intelligent enough to appreciate baseball for how amazing it is. If ever I'd believe in the generosity of a supreme being, it would be in the form of baseball as god's gift to mankind.

its just so damn discrete. as a fan of all sport, I am reluctant to crown any as the clear champion. that being said, as an American, there really is something about baseball that just plain jibes with our capitalist ideology. pitcher v. batter is about as directly confrontational as sport can get. except, maybe, for cage fighting.

 

I can't believe Cole Hamels gave up 11 hits tonight.
