MarvinisaLunatic Posted October 16, 2003 Report Posted October 16, 2003 the only bright spot about a Yankees Marlins WS is that the Marlins might be able to win it and I'd enjoy the thought of the Yankees losing their last 2 world Series to recent expansion teams..
Guest Dmann2000 Posted October 16, 2003 Report Posted October 16, 2003 Ah well- 2004- YEAR OF THE REDS
the pinjockey Posted October 16, 2003 Report Posted October 16, 2003 It will be forgotton by the simple fact that they have assembled enough young talent for a dynasty (dare I say, Braves style at least) and at the very least a new stadium. This is going to revive baseball in Miami. Getting ahead of yourself much? Has this owner shown where he is going to be willing to spend the millions of dollars to keep Castillo, Lowell, Urbina and Pudge?
Matt Young Posted October 16, 2003 Report Posted October 16, 2003 Fuck. I am mainly a White Sox and Cardinals fan (and to a lesser extent, the Yankees) but the Cubs are one of my hometown teams and I've watched more of their agmes than anyone's over the years since my dad's side of the family loves the team. After being so excited over the greatest MLB playoffs I have ever seen (watched since '96), my enthusiasm has been sapped. I like the Yanks and Marlins, but I so wanted to see a Cubs/BoSox series... but it is not to be. I was also hoping to maybe go to a Series game in Chicago... also not to be. Over in Springfield, my grandpa is probably having his 3rd heart attack. The one and only positive is that we have a good chance of seeing Mike Wilbon go legitimately fucking nuts on PTI tomorrow.
Guest Choken One Posted October 16, 2003 Report Posted October 16, 2003 Ah well- 2004- YEAR OF THE REDS sure why not...better then Florida.
Mik Posted October 16, 2003 Report Posted October 16, 2003 He spent the money to get them, didn't he? He added payroll during the season. Pudge wants to stay. Castillo will stay. I have faith that they won't fuck it up again. They know better this time around, they HAVE to.
Mik Posted October 16, 2003 Report Posted October 16, 2003 Pudge is the MVP! I would have gone with Beckett but a fine choice nonetheless.
Your Paragon of Virtue Posted October 16, 2003 Report Posted October 16, 2003 Pardon my ignorance, but can you guys give me a full explanation as to how Florida raped the game, I mean, was it basically them buying a bunch of players for a World Series ring than disbanding them a year later? It's still amazing that those guys had enough chemistry even though they had never played together before.
A Happy Medium Posted October 16, 2003 Report Posted October 16, 2003 Wilbon may jump the table and beat the fuck out of Tony..lol.. Marlins are a good team...but fuck it, this sucks.
Guest Choken One Posted October 16, 2003 Report Posted October 16, 2003 It ended the innocence that baseball was great for, It showed that baseball was truely a game for corporation profit seeking assholes, who didn't care about the game or fans...just their pockets... The 1997 marlins basically said FUCK YOU to the fans of the game.
Guest Dmann2000 Posted October 16, 2003 Report Posted October 16, 2003 Ah well- 2004- YEAR OF THE REDS sure why not...better then Florida. They kept Larkin, that's a glimmer- though they gave up Boone I remmember '90- Shut out the A's 4-0 I want that feeling again.
JangoFett4Hire Posted October 16, 2003 Report Posted October 16, 2003 What's this Yankees/Marlins crap? AL still has one game left. REMEMBER? You all wrote the Sox off by the 5th inning tonight. So, let's wait to see who's doing what before you send off any wedding invitations.
Mik Posted October 16, 2003 Report Posted October 16, 2003 Alright gentlemen, I have to peace out for the night, I have a problem set due tomorrow morning that I haven't even started yet. GO MARLINS BABY!!!
A Happy Medium Posted October 16, 2003 Report Posted October 16, 2003 So jessy, how do u like thesmartmarks?
iliketurtles Posted October 16, 2003 Report Posted October 16, 2003 Oh my god is that depressing. All those fans are still sitting there just gazing into nothing.
Downhome Posted October 16, 2003 Report Posted October 16, 2003 It will be forgotton by the simple fact that they have assembled enough young talent for a dynasty (dare I say, Braves style at least) and at the very least a new stadium. This is going to revive baseball in Miami. Like it did in 1997?
Fökai Posted October 16, 2003 Report Posted October 16, 2003 Only bright spot of Marlins/Yankees... Pudge has the chance to get a ring. ... ... ... Seriously...that's it.
Your Paragon of Virtue Posted October 16, 2003 Report Posted October 16, 2003 So was it the buying of the players, or the letting go?
Guest Choken One Posted October 16, 2003 Report Posted October 16, 2003 What's this Yankees/Marlins crap? AL still has one game left. REMEMBER? You all wrote the Sox off by the 5th inning tonight. So, let's wait to see who's doing what before you send off any wedding invitations. we dont' want the sox now, the appeal is dead. Might as well fully insert the knife.
Matt Young Posted October 16, 2003 Report Posted October 16, 2003 I just have to note that I recently quit smoking cigarettes (although I only started in late March) but I'm puffing away now since I got so worked up over this game.
JangoFett4Hire Posted October 16, 2003 Report Posted October 16, 2003 Hmmm, the Red Sox in the series... nope, the appeal isn't lost on me.
Guest Choken One Posted October 16, 2003 Report Posted October 16, 2003 So was it the buying of the players, or the letting go? The letting go...No one minds buying the players but letting them go just to make a profit raped the game.
iliketurtles Posted October 16, 2003 Report Posted October 16, 2003 <----I've been waiting 17 years for the Sox to win the Series, since I was born. My grandfather who passed away eariler this summer at the age of 76 never saw the Sox win. Come on Boston.
