things you would like to forget

Featured Replies

OK last year was full of memories. Most of these where great, the comeback against the Cubbies, Conines throw to gun down Snow, Beckett pitching a complete game in game 6 when nobody thought Trader Jack made the right more, and many many more. Sadly though some things are best to be forgotten. What do you wish you could forget about, but you just can't? Be it on the message boards, the field, or the press...

 

 

I have two:

 

1: When I lost faith after the Marlins lost 2 games back to back against the Yankees.

2: The nightly post game make-out sessions between Pudge and Urbina. :banghead

Against the Cubs, I almost had a fit when I saw Wood hit the home run in game 7. I was yelling that if the Cubs got past the Marlins, I wouldn't be able to eat for days out of disgust.

 

Luckily for me, I have not had a broken pattern in my eating habits.

Probably when we were hit with all those pitching injuries. (Burnett, Beckett, Redman, Penny.)

 

Tell you the truth I never loss faith in the Marlins during the playoffs. I believed in the them all the way, you knew they had the magic, you just knew.

i really dont want to forget anything. all the bad stuff that happened, the horrible start, aj going down, the rotation getting torn apart, the blowout in boston, etc all contributed to making the eventual outcome so much sweeter to me.

"D-train de railed in game 4 vs Cubs"

 

in the NLCs game 4 vs. the cubbies and Willis pitching...giving up i dont know how many home runs. Thought it was over right at that point.

Losing the 20 inning game made me feel sick to my stomach.

 

Especially since I left in the top of the 9th . . .

Things I'd like to forget? Nothing. It all worked out in the end.

 

There were a few things that at the time looked horrible. The bad start, the awful game in Boston, being down 3-1 to the Cubs. But in the end it all worked out.

 

And thank God for these bad things. If the Marlins were around the .500 mark after 50-60 games, Jack McKeon probably would never have seen the Marlins dugout and we probably wouldn't be talking about the Fish defending this year. We would be talking about how the Marlins could improve on their 81-81 record. Attendance would have remained flat and there would be even less support for a new stadium.

 

Coming back 3-1 against the Cubs probably gave the Marlins more confidence against the Yankees than probably sweeping the Cubs or beating them 4 games to 2 would have.

 

As long as things work out in the end, maybe those things we think we'd like to forget weren't so bad after all.

That's a good point, same with what marlins02 said.

The three for me:

 

Game 4 of the NLCS...I felt so sick after that I couldn't describe it.

 

NOT BEATING THE PIRATES, lol.

 

and finally: Pudge's comments after leaving. I had a lot of respect for the guy, until then, and it's a shame to have to hate one of the "heroes" from the post-season...

i was sitting at pro player wathcing aramis' grand slam go over the fence, i can't remember feeling much worse than that during the season

probably the worse feeling i had was sitting in the stands during game 4 behind these arrogant cub fan and his annoying ass girl friend who was a cub fan but would cheer for pudge because he is "a hottie" i believe was the term used. they were so f***ing annoying during the game, including their friends and at the end of the game after the blowout the guy was taunting and everything.

 

but after game 7 i thought about them, and i wanted to be next to them real bad so i can laugh, and laugh, and laugh, and laugh.... and laugh... you get the idea.

 

 

the losing streak out west in august was bad to, it just felt like we'll never win another game. it was horrible.

 

but at the end it all worked out

at the end of game 5, there were these cub fans wliking down the ramp, and i was trying to be nice to them and i was like: Well, at least you won't have to face Josh Beckett again.

 

And then they were like: the marlins suck i hate you. We're gonna kill you in game 6 with prior.

 

They made an argument over a comment that i was trying to be friendly with.

 

Then when beckett came in in game 7, all i could think about was them.

i was sitting at pro player wathcing aramis' grand slam go over the fence, i can't remember feeling much worse than that during the season

yup, me too...

AJ down for the season, the Boston Massacre, and the 20 inning loss

 

thats about it

i think they are all the same...

 

in no order

 

-Boston Blowout

-not beating the pirates was just frustrating

-AJ going down for the season

-Getting to my seat in game 4 against the cubs only to find out that Aramis just hit a Grand Slam

-Trading Adrian Gonzalez and Denny Bautista (but it paid off)

-Penny getting suspended after hitting Vlad in ST .... nice beanball though

-Pitching Staff injuries (AJ, Beckett, Redman)

-Todd Hollandsworth

 

 

thers probably more .... but im burnt :rasta

2: The nightly post game make-out sessions between Pudge and Urbina. :banghead

and can you tell me why is that wrong? ... i think you are just jealous because you wont see it this year.

 

 

i think thats one the things that im gonna miss most.... actually yeah it is
