He was busy pimping Leadhead Ned for Manager of the Year.

LOL @ the Marlins.

****in' Loria is just the worst kind of scumbag. He got his ballpark and just sodomized the taxpayers/fans in Miami in return.

The Marlins got $409M in public funding (on false pretense) that will cost the city $2.4 BILLION to pay off. #jail #fraud

Just another example of why it is absolutely insane and borderline criminal for local tax payers to provide stadium funding for pro teams.

I am the opposite of a big government guy, but Congress really should look deeper into these situations.

Or the voters could just tell these teams to go get ****ed.

Hopefully this will begin happening soon. There's got to be a tipping point eventually; maybe this is the one.

You honestly think Reyes and company are stuck living in Toronto in the offseason? LOL

That will never happen because most voters are stupid and truly believe the teams will leave town.

Wow is this true?

Holy crap. I'm stoked.

I live in T.O. And haven't seen a competitive team in years. If this trade comes through they have a really good chance to compete next year. I think this trade addresses a good majority of their team needs.

But now you have to refer to your team as the Toronto Marlins.

So, Marlins get all that public money go build new ballpark, then sell off the entire club, bit by bit. Nice management team.


**** the Taxpayer

Yeah, that shit needs to be outlawed.. I would give Obama a pass, if he decided to pass some ridiculous law that took away franchises from owners that took taxpayer money for stadiums and are not fielding a competitive team and reaping in money from others and gave the team to the city/board to run ala Green Bay for baseball and football..

I am sure it will be ****ed up, but not as bad as it is now for some owners..

Reyes
Bonafacio
Bautista
Encarnacion
Lawrie
Rasmus
Lind
Arencibia
Gose

Johnson
Morrow
Beuhrle
Romero
Happ

Call them the Maricons, they're light years better than any team the Jays have fielded in the last decade

The Jays still need to add a bat if they want to be as good as the 2008 team. Lind and Gose are black holes that need to be improved upon (or at least platooned).
