Uneeddis, I see your point (and your sarcasm) but I still don’t agree. Just because I complain doesn’t mean I can do anything about it. I am not a teacher and I am not an elected official. That is what they are voted into office for and that is what they are paid for. I am sure you’re complaining about the price of gas, right? Well, can you do something about it? No, you need gas to get around. Go buy a Prius? Great, but it won’t change the price of gas. Why don’t you send a letter to OPEC or President Dummy and see if they care what you think? Please! It’s easy to say “get off your couch and do something” but another to actually be able to do something. Get off your pedestal. You might be getting a little dizzy all the way up there. And yes, it’s easy to blame Clinton when he did nothing about the Cole. Just like its easy to blame Bush right now when he still has done nothing about Osama. If Bush was president during the Cole, nothing would have been done either. This whole mess is Bush's to own up too, no one else should take blame.

Oh yeah sure it's not your responsibility...just sit back and complain. That is the type of values that we want to teach our kids. (That's sarcasm...to help you out there.) As an American, it is you duty to take responsibility and do something about it. While I don't agree with Braman on this issue...he is doing something about what he believes. Sergio, if think Miami's school system is so bad go down there and help make it better. Remember it takes a village...it's the American thing to do...but maybe you aren't one or even worse a Democrat! (Couldn't resist). Get off you couch, put the remote down and do something. Work with you ELECTED officials to make a difference and stopping waiting and complaining. By the way, I don't blame Clinton for everything... I just blame him for letting a nuisance become a full fledge cancer. When US Cole happen, this whole mess should have been dealt with and finished.

To the first guy:
Typical ignorant comment from a typical uneducated Miami internet tough guy. Your obviously a product of the schools in Miami which could use this money to educate lowlifes like yourself.

And of course, the other guy is a republican. Gee, what a surpise that you blame Clinton for all this. His "non-action had nothing to do with Bush lying about WMD's in Iraq. Like Iraq had nothing to do with 911. And of course, a republican has no problem spending millions of the tax payers money without public approval.

Yes, go Marlins, Go straight to Vegas or San Antonio. Go somewhere where they have the money to waste on baseball.

I am not a elected official and its not my responsibility to do something. Just like it not yours. All we can do is express our opinions like our country allows us too. And I have done something to raise the values. Of my children! They are being raised with the correct values. Where are yours? Let me guess, watching the Marlins in jail?

Sergio, You are right are one thing. Bill Clinton was/is a lying son of a female dog, and his non-actions help cause the death of many American lives. I hope Braman fails, but respect his right to fight this. I wish he better use his resources to help create more jobs, instead of stopping the creation of jobs. Yeah building the stadium will create jobs...and that is what we really need. If you want better schools, go down to the schools and find out where you can help. This is a better solution than sitting back and waiting for the government to fix EVERYTHING. You talk about our values have falling...well what have you done to help raise those values? Probably nothing, because you are waiting for the government to fix everything. Take some responsibility and GO MARLINS!!!!

You are a cocksucker sergio. Get over it.

You are a cocksucker sergio. Get over it.

Ordinarily I would also object to building a stadium for millionaires, but as this is the Marlins, given their payroll there likely aren't going to be many millionaires to profit by it.

I hope this deal falls flat on its face. Braman is our only hope to stop these thieves from stealing the taxpayers money and building this momument to greed. Miami and all of South Florida has alot more pressing issues than building a ballpark for millionaires. I dont care if this money is only suppossed to be used for these types of projects and cant be used for real problems like schools, roads, poverty. They can use it for anything we want if its put to a vote. I would bet anything that if in November we saw a ballot to vote for how to use the money, A.The stadium or B. other issues, the stadium would lose hands down. The mindless few baseball fans that attend these games and write on this blog would be outnumbered easily. If they took money the voters approved to fix the OB and moved it to this project then they could easily take all this money and use it for what is needed. NOT BASEBALL!! Loria and the crooked Miami politicians, with suspicious lifetime season tickets, should not be allowed to get away with it. But since our president can lie and get away with murdering thousands of Americans and Iraqi's, then I am sure they will get away with this. Shows you how far our priorities and values have dropped in this country.

Tearing down the OB was a huge mistake and it will never be forgotten by the long time residents. Your greed is disgusting. I hope the canes and marlins are cursed by this for as many years as the OB stood. 72 YEARS!! Although I doubt the Marlins will be in existence or playing in Miami by then.
