| subject | Marlins Trade Idea | ||
I am a big Marlins fan. I want nothing more than the Marlins to win. Therefore, I have an idea that could help the team. Trade Hanley Ramirez for the Cincinnati Reds' Great American Ball Park scoreboard. I love Hanley and he is a great player, but nothing helps winning like a great scoreboard. And this is a high tech HD scoreboard! Cincinnati can also send one of their 4 mascots to Florida as well. I vote Gapper. If necessary, maybe the Reds could send a minor league player as well. This benefits both teams. Florida gets a scoreboard for free, a sweet mascot to get the fans fired up, and a player to help them. The Reds get a young shortstop. The Marlins can later move this scoreboard to the new stadium. A win/win/win situation!
Please let you know what you think of my idea. Although I have never been GM of a MLB World Series Champion, I have led "The PEN15 Club" and "Andy likes to Pettitte" to fantasy baseball championships.
I look forward to hearing from you.

Dear Sasha:
Thank you for taking the time to offer your ideas. Sounds like you would do well in In-game Entertainment with your novel ideas.
Your scoreboard idea should go to Sun Life Stadium Operations; the Marlins are not part of that organization. As for the Mascot, we like Billy.
Thank you again so much and enjoy the baseball season !!

Ms. Filbert,
I am sorry. I mistook your words as an offer of employment. However, I will need to ask that you return the following to me: Scoreboard night, Nickelback Demolition night, Tiger Woods night. Please return them by 4pm today.

I agree that Billy is a great mascot, but math says another mascot will help the Marlins. The Reds have 4 mascots and have won 5 World Series championships. The Marlins have one mascot and have only won 2 World Series championships. Meanwhile, the Cubs have no mascot and haven't won a World Series in 101 years. Therefore, math says more mascots = more World Series championships. This is why the Dolphins had to find Snowflake before the Super Bowl. Same principles!
Just off the top of my head, in addition to acquiring the Reds' scoreboard, Gapper mascot, and a minor league player, I have come up with a couple other ideas:
1. Scoreboard night - Come to the Ballpark and check out our new HD scoreboard. Fans get their picture taken when they enter and then their faces are put on funny pictures like guys faces on girls in bikinis or a picture of Dick Cheney giving a fan the business.
2. Nickelback Demolition Night - Inspired by the Disco demolition night, fans will be encouraged to destroy their Nickelback albums following the game.
3. Tiger Woods Night - Fans bringing their mistress will receive the second ticket for half price. Free if they also bring their wife!
Please let me know what you think of these ideas and when you would like me to start full-time.
Sasha
