canada-marlin24 Posted August 1, 2012 Share Posted August 1, 2012 Did anybody listen to those guys this afternoon? Just slamming the marlins saying that it's "fire sale #3" and that "the pitcher", which is Eovaldi, will never see a big league mound. And some idiot caller called in saying that also. These hosts make so many factual errors. Why are they even allowed to have shows? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miami_Marlins_fan Posted August 1, 2012 Share Posted August 1, 2012 What's new? Most of the sports radio stations in the area have been bashing us. It is far easier to bash us than to actually analyse the trades and be objective. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

canada-marlin24 Posted August 1, 2012 Author Share Posted August 1, 2012 If the marlins had their way it would have been firesale 3 with bell Buck and lee gone. Not that I would blame them or be against moving those turds. How do you expect the fanbase to feel? Also this board has over hyped eovaldi. I don't think ur giving Eovaldi enough credit for what he's done so far and is only 22. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fiasco518 Posted August 1, 2012 Share Posted August 1, 2012 The people who cry fire sale and are pissed off and cant understand these trades were never really real fans to begin with. It was cool to be a Marlins fan in the offseason and they started claiming it and buying the hats and acting like they had knowledge of the team. Then we started sucking and they were looking for a reason to dump the team and this is their out. I wish they would become Yankee fans.

Then we started sucking and they were looking for a reason to dump the team and this is their out. I wish they would become Yankee fans. This isn't fair at all. The marlins added stars to the team. There were real expectations from new fans, casuals, and diehards. A little over half way they have traded Hanley who's been around for a long time. Same with Anibal. Infante was one of those casual fan favorites. Then casuals and new fans hear they are trying to trade away more players. What do you expect them to think? Aldo this whole diehards vs new and casuals is dumb. As a diehard you should be happy new fans have sprung up. Bandwagon or not you should want more fans for your team. I do want more fans for the team, I have no problem with them, but I do want them to actually be fans of the team and not just because its the cool thing to do. Id like them to actually educate themselves about the trades and realize why they happened and that they were made to improve our team and not just scream fire sale. They need to realize that we arent and never will be like the Yankees and dont just keep throwing money around and trade away our farm when things dont go well.

LordMagnus Posted August 1, 2012 Share Posted August 1, 2012 These people have no idea what a fire sale is. The Marlins sucked and got rid of players. It's not like they were breaking up a World Series team. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They need to realize that we arent and never will be like the Yankees and dont just keep throwing money around and trade away our farm when things dont go well.How do you think good fans are made? They start because its cool to be a fan. Then they get into it and learn. Its a process. Some people that became fans this season will stick. Most wont. Its a process. Its been a long time since the team has been competitive. At this point I think people can be frustrated and pissed. The amount of failed prospects, failed contracts....its not good. A new perspective in the fo is needed. Its never really been cool to be a Marlins fan until this past off season lol. I would hope people become fans because they actually like baseball. I imagine thats how most Marlins fans before this season became fans. Its just annoying that the new ones who are abandoning the team already dont even realize why these moves happened, they just think theyre doing the same thing as the other 2 times. Be frustrated, be pissed all you want, but be pissed that we suck not because we traded some players and made moves that were needed. I dunno thats just my opinion, obviously ours differ. I do agree that a change in the FO is def needed though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marlins Posted August 1, 2012 Share Posted August 1, 2012 The Marlins left 560 for 790, I am sure the jackholes at WQAM loved that Yeah, but I'd bet they're putting down the Marlins on 790 also. I could check but I really don't feel like listening to a radio talk show about the Marlins. Reading & posting about it on a public message board is ok though.

FishFan88 Posted August 1, 2012 Share Posted August 1, 2012 It's probably a bad thing that a failed season, dirt cheap tickets, and empty seats around me at te park brings an odd sense of comfortable familiarity. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eovaldi has played in the big leagues, which is more credit that WQAM doesn't even figure to give. WQAM is filled with sloppy bitches though, what else could we expect. Atleast on 790 they make it seem like it's part of their job to be informed on all the teams even if they are talking about movies and monster dongs.

No. He's going to be a #3 which is good. He's really tough to project at this point. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gianroido Posted August 2, 2012 Share Posted August 2, 2012 i cant remember one time the tommy and rich disagreed with the FO. they disagree with on the field stuff all the time. it wasnt until the past few years that tommy even started "venting".

Because it's impossible to actually believe that this was not a fire sale or that these are actually good baseball deals? Well I don't consider it a fire sale and I actually think the Malins did well in these deals....and I believe those things while also not being a Beinfest fan.

Right, because 790 has never slammed the Marlins before because it's the Marlins' channel. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Marlins get ripped by 790 all the time, especially by all the Mets fan jackholes they have on there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
