IF marlins win the WS. . . Seeming more and more prophetic, Well, the Marlins did it. THEY WON.

then you'll have some interesting numbers, 2 WS in 12 years with LOTS and LOTS of very very bad Baseball.

as a fan, would you rather watch your team go thru 10 years of bad baseball and 2 years of Superb baseball or

watch a team like the braves, 12 years of VERY VERY good baseball but only 1 World Series win.
 
I don't care. I want my Red Sox to finally win it and beat the s**t out of the Yankees along the way.
 
I was a marlins fan when I was younger, remember their inaugural season... and if I were still a big baseball fan I'd have to say I'd want 12 years of good baseball.
 
As a Braves fan, I found myself defending them one day, saying how "at least they're always in it", and "they win the division every year" and "they are the most consistent".

Then, as and ACC and more importantly, an NC State fan, I realized the unthinkable......I sounded like a UNC fan during the Dean Smith era.

Think about it......Dean Smith coached at UNC over 30 years.....and won only 2 titles.
But UNC fans point at the # of Final Fours, total wins, ACC crowns.....blah, blah, blah......show me the RINGS. Got more than twice as many McDonalds' All Americas as the next closest team, and only 2 titles.

Braves=MLB's version of UNC.

I damn well would trade 2-3 years of those 12 straight division titles for 3 more World Series titles.

I just want the Sox to win it so I don't have to hear about that stupid curse or choke any longer... GOD help them.
 
If the Marlins win the WS this year, they would have won 2 WS in 6 years. That's pretty good. I'd take two WS champion years + 4 crappy years over 6 years of doing good but not winning the WS.

If you make it 12/1 or 12/2 (years/WS victories), then I'm not sure...it would kind of suck to have to go through 10 years of complete and utter mediocrity.
 
I don't know which I'd rather have, as a fan. All I know is that a Marlins vs. Yankees world series is gonna be almost as much fun as the subway series was.

You KIDDING ME?? the Marlins beating the Yankees would be HUGE, well, not as big as a Red Sux / Blubbies WS, but still would be FUN.
 
At least the Marlins didn't buy this trip the series. However, yet again, the Yankees buy their tickets and participate yet again.

I love it how everyone is discounting the marlins chances. IMHO the Marlins will win the WS.

And hopefully the current owner won't have a firesale and get rid of all his good players right after the World Series like that Huizenga guy did in '97
