Marlins Fans Getting A Little Big For Their Britches . . .

“beat the mets beat the mets step right up and beat the mets” (7/23/08)

This from a team that owes its glory to Wayne Huizinga’s fortune. This from a team that draws 4,000 fewer spectators than the Pirates, lending a literal definition to “fair weather fan” (would you want to watch a day game in Miami in the middle of August?). How about an attendance of 375 last September?

This does not mean that Billy Wagner doesn’t have some serious explaining to do, by the way.
