4. That's ancient history
lets focus on the present...and currently the Pirates are but 12 losses away from setting an all time mark for consecutive losing seasons.

History is about to be made.

The bums haven't had a winning season since Bonds was there.

12. "Two World Championship banners"
and still nobody shows up. The last year the Marlins didn't finish at the bottom of MLB in attendance was 2005.

That's just outright pathetic. At least Pittsburgh has an excuse for their anemic attendance, as they're perennial losers...what's the Marlins excuse?

15. When attendance is all you have as a weapon it's time to back out of the debate.
