Having a hobby is a good thing.
It keeps people occupied.
Marlins swim toward Miami “out of love”, of course!
Hopefully they can do some good work to rebuild the team and fan support.
It’s sad, that the Marlins have a beautiful new stadium, paid largely by taxpayers from what I hear, yet the team has struggled to gain fan support.
Derek Jeter knows baseball. It will be good to see, how does a hall of fame player make the transition to team owner.
But it’s great to see a great player such as Jeter make this transition to another level of the baseball world. Hope he does well with the Marlins.
Well, good, Yeb! will have something to do now.
He can keep his yap shut about politics.
If it keeps Jeb out of politics for the rest of his life, I’m all for it. Jeb ought to make his La Raza son Jorge P. co-owner of the Marlins to keep him busy too, before Jorge P. tries to con his way into the Texas Governor’s mansion or worse.
Jeter is a big lib. Screw him.
Auction my arse.
MLB is sucking-up to the political class again.
The Marlins need something to get the fans back. Jeter is certainly a winner. Jeb, well, he was a good governor.
