New Stadium Questions

May 15th, 2008 @ 12:10:59 AM

Are they going to demolish some houses to make room for parking?

What about traffic flow? Anyone who has been the OB for a Hurricanes game has enjoyed the fun scenario of paying someone to park in their house weed patch only to get blocked in.

The Orange Bowl was perfect for college games during its time, but man those ramps when they got wet, and any Va Tech, WVA, or FSU game meant never ending wall to wall ‘people slushing’ to get anywhere in that stadium. I’m more than happy to say goodbye, but a Pro stadium in that neighborhood? Its not exactly “in the city.”

I guess beggars can’t be choosers. The Florida Marlins have wanted, no needed, this stadium since day 1. Finally they will get it as its been approved. The name of the team will change to the Miami Marlins. I like the name better. It might actually draw more fans if you can believe it since its more niche.

Olsen Arrested, But Plays On

Marlins have no choice, but to let the kid play. Their pitching staff is weak and very thin. They are caught between a rock and a hard place.

Mets Put the Marlins On the Hook

Crushed.

Again.

Everywhere from the standings to the spirit.

For the second cruel night in a row, the Marlins walked off the field with heads hung as the jubilant Mets won in the final at-bat, all but extinguishing what was left of Florida’s season. If the Marlins win all 10 remaining games, a virtual impossibility given that this team hasn’t won a series since June, it would still need the surging Astros to go 6-4 to tie them.

Then Dan Le Batard, continues with:

That would mean starting over, which nobody in South Florida wants to hear, but you are going to care only enough to complain? It isn’t like there were swaying, paying thousands at the ballpark all season rewarding Marlins management for again doing all it could to give us a season’s worth of contending.

Frankly, we don’t deserve Delgado, A.J. Burnett nor this team that keeps giving us September and October thrills. Last in the league in attendance? There isn’t another baseball town in North America, not one, that would draw this poorly for pennant-race games.
