February 6, 201214 yr Feel weird about Conine...1993 seen him walking around Broward mall. I was 13 my brother 11 we asked him for an autograph he got real mad and says in mean voice " can u say please" . He is mr marlin but not good on tv.... As for Floyd herd him a bunch if times on radio and has a live and good personality. Don't know about Preston but I think I remember him having fun as a Marlin. Fair enough...nothing wrong with showing some manners. People will definitely be nicer to you when you do.
February 6, 201214 yr My wife will miss Conine, as she always says he's so handsome. For me, meh, he was boring with a very dry sense of humor that I think got lost on TV. Cliff and Preston will be interesting, and I hope they have done some audience testing for them 1st, and not just throw them on TV and hope it works. I am guessing Allison, Minervini, Forte, Tommy and Rich will all be back ?
February 6, 201214 yr I am guessing Allison, Minervini, Forte, Tommy and Rich will all be back ? Minervini, Forte, Tommy and Rich definitely are. Not sure about Allison.
February 6, 201214 yr I'm sure she will be. She's almost part of the trio with Minervini and Forte now.
February 6, 201214 yr Allison Williams has been working for ESPN recently. I can't say that she doesn't have a contract with multiple networks, but it wouldn't surprise me if she's gone.

Understand what u saying but give a kid some love!

February 8, 201214 yr Allison stills works the panthers games for fsn so I would assume shed be back. As for Conine I'm surprised theres a consensus on the board about his lack of tv skills. I like it when hes on, I thought he brought good insight. I know he works for the team, so maybe hes more involved with that.
February 8, 201214 yr Yeah, Allison is still working for FSFlorida. I don't think she's good at her job, but she'll probably be back, too.
February 8, 201214 yr I think I read somewhere that Floyd talked bad about the Marlins. This true? After we traded him. And I believe again during the '03 Series. Something about him and CJ watching it together and rooting against us. I remember in '02 he really wanted to stick with the Marlins and tried pushing for a long-term deal here, even for a small discount, but they shipped him out mid-season when we were out of the chase. Oh well, water under the bridge. I think you are right about that. And he did have a fan base here. I wasn't one, but whatever. So the bad mouthing could very well have been because his feelings were hurt about being traded. But you are right, the past is the past.

In his defense, I think he played for three teams in a month that year... I'd be pissed too lol.

February 9, 201214 yr What will happen is all home pregame shows will be on site at Marlins Park and Jeff Conine will be the analyst. For all road games, the pregame show will originate from a studio and that is where Preston Wilson and Cliff Floyd will be the analysts.

I am not positive, but it is what I have heard. The Rays today officially announced that their road pregame shows will come from a studio in Ft. Lauderdale. I also know officially that Conine is still a part of the broadcast team.
February 9, 201214 yr Won't watch until Reggie Abercrombie joins the crew. "And we'll be right back with analysis from Julian Tavarez" "Let's go to our Asian correspondent, Byung-Hyun Kim, with a closer look at the Marlins clubhouse before the first pitch." "Here's the catching report with Mike Piazza." Erection. And the weather from Dontrelle Willis "IT'S RAINING" Thanks Willy (Family Guy)
February 9, 201214 yr now if Allison Williams is removed and never does another one of her broadcasts then all will be well
February 10, 201214 yr now if Allison Williams is removed and never does another one of her broadcasts then all will be well Breaking News: Marlins hire Billy Lindsay and Steve Goldstein to replace Tommy and Rich respectively. Enjoy, assholes.

February 10, 201214 yr Niner is the man. He could do nothing but eat bologna on the air, and he'd still be the man. Oh well.. Cliff and Preston will be cool
February 10, 201214 yr Niner is the man. He could do nothing but eat bologna on the air, and he'd still be the man. Oh well.. Cliff and Preston will be cool Say what you will about PDub, he was a class act. It's like he grew up knowing what it takes to be a star (always dressed nicely, even when teammates were in t-shirts & sweats) and giving of his time to fans. As a CF, I always thought he made the easy plays look hard - his speed allowed him to compensate for lack of ball judgement and positioning. He would've been better as a corner OF (if the Marlins had anyone else to patrol center in 1998-2001). I did meet him and Cliffy at a preseason event (before the general public was let in). You could tell they were buds and would work together again someday. I think their show will be fun.
February 11, 201214 yr The Marlins website has now added both Conine and Allison Williams to their list of 2012 broadcasters. http://mlb.mlb.com/team/broadcasters.jsp?c_id=mia
