"Why, Why, Why?"

I was born in Miami in 1979. While growing up I always watched sports with my dad and brother. And the only team that ever won in Miami besides the great Hurricane teams, are the Florida Marlins. The Dolphins always found a way to disappoint us, year in and year out. The Dolphins would start the season 6-0 and find a way to miss or barely make the playoffs. But these Marlins always kept it interesting. There first championship shocked the country, and there second stopped the world. A team of young hungry kids going up against the "Evil Empire" Yankees. How are we going to allow them to leave our state? I know that spending money on entertainment looks bad in a time when hurricanes come and go like the snowbirds. But this city needs a team that can win. We have already given up almost all of our wonderful pitchers, but let's not give up this team. It will take a few years, but with the new prospects coming in, and the excellent front office that we have, we can come back from this. This team belongs in Miami and we owe them our loyalty. The city, team and state need to come together to keep this team in Miami. It will be a sad day when I have to watch the San Antonio Marlins.
