Fish and Their Few Fans Having Fun

Steve Silver checks out the Marlins clubhouse, their manager, and what keeps the fans away. He also gives this little bit of info that I didn't know about...

"Playing in Dolphin Stadium, the Marlins receive a minimal revenue stream from concessions, parking and advertising because the stadium is controlled by the Miami Dolphins' owners as a result of a deal struck with the late Joe Robbie."

Looking beyond the fact that the living Joe Robbie was already the Dolphins' owner, I thought it was a neat trick that the late Joe Robbie is still making deals. Maybe I'll attempt one myself, although I don't know how soon he'll return my phone calls. (WashingtonTimes)
