Miami fans are absolutely angry. They just bought the Marlins an expensive stadium. The team slashed the payroll to nearly the lowest in the league. They built in Little Havana which irritated the majority of their fan base. They did this in1997 as well when they had the world series parade there as well.

Lastly there is nothing wrong with Joe Robbie Stadium aka Su n Life Stadium Aka Landshark Stadium aka Pro Player stadium. It is still a very modern stadium.

I understand the need for improvements, but Ross is worth more than $4 BILLION! If he cannot find funding for his property, then his property deserves to deteriorate.

Where? I was born and raised in SW Miami. Can't picture where a stadium could be built.

The whole idea of taxpayer money being used for a private stadium really pisses me off.
The average guy can't afford an afternoon at a game. Yet he helps pay for it?
I was in DC last weekend, took in a couple Nationals games. A couple and 2 kids could spend $200 easily.
