"They do all they can to alienate the fanbase and then wonder why nobody comes to the ballpark. I mean, if Jeffrey Loria and David Samson were the pilot and copilot of the Enola Gay they'd drop the A-bomb, land the plane in downtown Hiroshima, look around, scratch their heads and wonder 'Where did everybody go?'" (HardballTimes)
ANOTHER CHOP: "Your payroll is $20 million lower than the second-lowest team in the majors! It's not even $15 million! The Marlins received $27 million in revenue sharing in 2005. Nice going. The Collective Bargaining Agreement is set to expire, and you're going to be whining and simpering that you need more revenue sharing, yet your payroll isn't even 60% of the subsidies you received last year. Do you think the players' union isn't going to point at you as the number one reason that revenue sharing doesn't work? (Are you still paying attention San Antonio and Portland?)"
MORE: Mike Berardino reports that the Players Union is definitely interested. (SunSentinel)
