May 25, 201115 yr Read that title again, I'm serious. I just signed the contracts and we are now officially affiliated with Fox Sports. The fantastic articles written by the MarlinsBaseball.com writing staff will now be syndicated by the Fox Sports network. This is a tremendous announcement that is made possibly by the tireless efforts of the writing staff here. I'm appreciative of their work and I hope more of you join the fold in the months ahead so we can continue to grow and improve. In case you're wondering, I remain 100% owner of the site and nothing is changing design wise.
May 25, 201115 yr Out of curiosity, do you make money from this site? Through both these affiliates and other methods? Also, what unbelievable news. Even as a Brit i know how big Fox and its sports coverages are.
May 25, 201115 yr Author Out of curiosity, do you make money from this site? Through both these affiliates and other methods? Nope, I do it because I enjoy it but I lose money on it. Thanks to a few members who support the site via donations I come close to breaking even some months but others I fall short.
May 25, 201115 yr Wow, i like the dedication. I know its not cheap to run a site. Gratitude and praise to you.

I will also be offering up lapdances in exchange for votes in the "Other Sports" category.
May 25, 201115 yr Coming from someone who formerly independently wrote and was thrilled whenever I actually got the opportunity to write for a major company, I know how exciting news like this is. Awesome stuff.
May 25, 201115 yr Congrats Admin! Very very cool! Fox Sports made a good decision..the articles on this site are great. Props to all the writers here!
May 29, 201115 yr Very exciting news for Admin, the writers and this site. Admin, will this site (the front page and board) always stay up? I know the site has been around since 2002 going by your join date. Does the team know about this board?
May 29, 201115 yr Author Admin, will this site (the front page and board) always stay up? I know the site has been around since 2002 going by your join date. Does the team know about this board? MarlinsBaseball.com has been around as a domain name since 1999 actually, we used a different forum software prior to 2002. Actual site started in 1993 as a one page site on my ISP account. I have absolutely no plans of stopping it anytime soon. Yes, the team is aware of the site. I've spoke with several prominent members of the front office about it actually. It was once also featured on the front page of the Miami Herald in a story about me and I did a live on-air interview with Craig Minervini about the site specifically back in 2004.
May 29, 201115 yr Congrats! School is almost out so I'll be free to contribute a few articles soon. I'll try to get a sample to you ASAP!
May 29, 201115 yr THIS IS GREAT!!!! I can't believe I didn't see this until now. I am so proud of all the contributors, especially our main man Admin!!!!!!!!!!!
May 30, 201115 yr Amazing! Great job, Admin! So what does this mean for the exposure the articles get? Will they appear anywhere else :o
May 30, 201115 yr Author iSo what does this mean for the exposure the articles get? Will they appear anywhere else :o Yes, your articles will be linked from any of the network sites owned by Fox including the Marlins page on FoxSports.com on some occasions. Several articles written the past week have been linked on the FoxSports.com Marlins page already. If for some reason your piece fits it, I was told your articles will be linked on TMZ.com as well since Fox has a content exchange going there.
June 15, 201115 yr Admin announced this link-up on the same day as the Cousins/Posey incident. As we all know, since then the Marlins have absolutely SUCKED. Sorry to say this Admin, but tell FoxSports and their national exposure to stick it! They are cursing us.
