November 14, 201114 yr Loria's flinging the old Florida Marlins cap into the audience just before he unveiled the new Miami Marlins logo was blasphemy. Hopefully, he hasn't placed a century-long hex on the team, previously one of the all-time most blessed organizations in sports history, by tossing a cherished historical object into the crowd as if he was saying good riddance to years of forgettable baseball in Miami. The Florida Marlins had an exceptional, brief history and Loria's action was poor symbolically and karmically. If the revolting new colors and logo that he picked out don't curse us in the new stadium during the twenty-first century, maybe his disrespect to the Baseball Gods for 1993, 1997, 2003 and numerous other games and moments will.
November 14, 201114 yr I thought it was stupid, but I'm over it. I was more taken by my discovery of there being no human being less charismatic than Jeffrey Loria. That hat toss seemed more awkward than blasphemous.
November 14, 201114 yr I thought the Hat toss was not only in bad taste but it was lame.... what was he trying to say by tossing the hat? It meant something...
November 14, 201114 yr People always find away to bitch about something.... WHO CARES! Sure he could have found a better way to show "in with the new, out with the old" but its not like he took a sh*t on the cap or something...
November 14, 201114 yr I actually agree. I thought it was in poor taste, and when it happened I was a little upset by it. Not so much so I needed to start a thread, but I understand why you did.
November 15, 201114 yr Bad taste, history means something , even though it was mostly bad years it gave the team 2 rings.
November 15, 201114 yr People always find away to bitch about something.... WHO CARES! Sure he could have found a better way to show "in with the new, out with the old" but its not like he took a sh*t on the cap or something... he took one IN the hat before tossing it
