jonnylons Posted February 27, 2004 Share Posted February 27, 2004 C'mon guys! There has got to be something we can do! I have a friend who is a US Marshall in Illinois, and we are currently drawing up a team to infiltrate the festivities and liberate the ball - escorting it back to Miami for Opening Day. Well...it would be funny if that happened, huh? Cant believe how much press this is getting, totally awesome. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
geemoney Posted February 27, 2004 Share Posted February 27, 2004 Too bad the "Bartman Ball" incident completely overshadowed the Marlins winning. I mean, it's almost a week into S.T., and more people are talking about the ball than the reigning world champs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jonnylons Posted February 27, 2004 Author Share Posted February 27, 2004 It doesnt stop there - the whole media has pretty much overlooked us. From A-Rod to Maddux, to Fudge a Tiger, there has been very little recognition that the Marlins are the champs. But you know what - that is a good thing. This team shouldnt be sitting on accolades. So we won 1 World Series (2 since '97). Lets go out and put up good numbers and get some wins and go after it again. This team is best when it is the underdog. We do it again this year, then people will start to notice. Screw 'em I say... Besides, blowing up that ball isnt going to help the Cubs. They are built to choke.

RossInfoMan Posted February 27, 2004 Share Posted February 27, 2004 It will also be on MSNBC live. Absolutely ridiculous the attention this is getting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rferry Posted February 27, 2004 Share Posted February 27, 2004 They should show it on ESPN or ESPN2. Just because two games are boring. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark3611 Posted February 27, 2004 Share Posted February 27, 2004 The cubs are being counter productive. Doesn't killing something mean it will come back to haunt you as a ghost? Now not only will they have the curse of the goat, but also the curse of the baseball. What a bunch of tards. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beinfest4Prez Posted February 27, 2004 Share Posted February 27, 2004 You know it will come back to haunt in Marlins vs. Cubs NLCS round 2. *Ding* Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest marlins02 Posted February 27, 2004 Share Posted February 27, 2004 these people are f***ing idiots. why dont they go and destroy the ball that went through the 1st basemans legs back in '84, or just slaughter all the goats in illinois, or just blow up wrigley field?

Mabdul Doobakus Posted February 27, 2004 Share Posted February 27, 2004 This is a little off-topic, but I didn't feel it deserved it's own thread. But...what the crap? We don't play the Cubs til September? What a**hole derived this stupid schedule? I really wanted to be there for DLee's return to the Pro, but September? I don't know where the hell I'll be in September... Grumble... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FreshFish Posted February 27, 2004 Share Posted February 27, 2004 The Cubs are such pathetic looser that they rather blame a ball and curses than to accept they got beat. Bottom line, they had another chance on game 7 and they didn't deliver. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Prime Time Posted February 27, 2004 Share Posted February 27, 2004 Honestly..it isn't that people are not recognizing the Marlins won the WS, it is just that noone wants to believe it. Marlins, a low budget team beat Barry Bonds and his Giants Then come back in a tough series and beat the Cubs. Then they BEAT the NY Yankees. Noone wants to believe that a young/low budget team could beat all these experienced/expensive teams. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jonnylons Posted February 27, 2004 Author Share Posted February 27, 2004 I am still waiting to get tix for Marlins/Cubs. MLB's websites suck - they must have the smallest servers in the world. I got on earlier, waited, and got through but then when i went to purchase the tix, there was an error and I had to keep re-placing the order because their server had too much traffic. WTF! So here I am, doing it all over again...and Sept. 11th is already sold out... :confused Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marlins Posted February 27, 2004 Share Posted February 27, 2004 I can't believe a lot of people thought that we won because of the Bartman situation... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
