2. It's good to see young Giants fans
carrying on the tradition of tremendous support that the great Giants organization has always received.

No Rockies, Marlins, Pirates, or Dodgers* for these guys....they want the best.

3. If they wanted the best
Why did they pick a team that hasn't won anything in 55 years???

4. Maybe they should have
picked a team that's 29th in attendance...Nobody likes the Marlins, not even, it would appear, South Florida.

5. That's all you got eh Douche?.............
Well maybe us Marlin fans have that distinction of bad attendance--- but I think it's far better than having the distinction of never having a MLB World Championship parade in your home city.----And the way things are looking--- it ain't gonna be this year as well..

Douche

6. Speak for yourself Mr 83%.....
I think the Marlins fans at least have some semblence of an excuse. Over the years that team has traded away Dontrelly Willis and Josh Beckett.

It's kinda hard to keep people coming to the park when the guys the fans hang their hats on keep getting dealt. I doubt many people who show up to games in San Fran if over the course of the next three seasons they dealt Cain, Lindstrom and Sandoval.

It's kind of a punch to the gut.

Fans don't just come to the park to see a winning product. They also go so they can root for somebody.

7. The ratings say otherwise
The Marlins have one of the top 10 ratings in the league. So, they may not go to the games, but they watch them on TV.
