The Marlins are a good team. They just have no tradition and no mystic, and appeal to a minimal audience.

They appeal to me and that's good enough for me.

Perhaps you are right, but who were the Miami Dolphins in 1972? They were a six year old team with no tradition, no history, yet they made their own history with a perfect season. The Marlins went from nothing, to World Series champion, tore back down to nothing and built back to the World Series- all in the span of ten years. I don't think that they should be blamed for not getting out of the way of the Cubbies. You got to earn your way in.
