We had some great submissions from last weeks article asking you, dear readers, to come up with a slogan for the 2012 season. I think I've managed to snag the good ones. I didn't use anyone's from the generator and I tried to go with the more positive ones because that's the point of a slogan, but a few may of slipped by the catcher.
I can't guarantee we'll have the slogan displayed, but if we have a good turn out I am going to see if I can finagle David into displaying the slogan somewhere on this site.
The vote will be up for a little over a week, ending Sunday the 12th at 6PM CST. We'll announce the winning slogan on the next podcast which will be recorded on the 12th.
Without further ado here are the five slogans you can vote on. Feel free to vote as often as you want.

That's all we got?
NOTA.

On the overly optimistic side:
Houston Astros, The Bandwagon Starts Now!
or
Houston Astros, Get in on the Ground Floor!
or
NL Houston Astros, Going out with a Bang
Now that I’ve helped the marketing department here’s what I would really like to see.
Houston Astros: Like a car wreck, you just Have to watch!
or
Houston Astros, So Ugly They’re Cute!
or
Houston Astros, Refreshingly McLaneless!

I like the “Going out with a bang” slogan.

Off-Topic
Since the Super Bowl is coming up, here is an article on the use of analytics in football predictions. According to that article, statistical analytics predicts a Patriots win tomorrow.

More Off-Topic....
Have you seen a picture of the Marlins’ HR celebration machine which will be behind CF?
Here.
This is sure to draw a lot of “love” and “hate” views, without much in between. At least, other teams’ fans will have something besides Tal’s HIll or the train at MMP to complain about.
clack - February 4, 2012
I still can’t believe that thing got the “OK”, it’s hideous.
jello44 - February 5, 2012
if anything it creates publicity.
Come see the crap we’ve put in centerfield
Timothy De Block - February 5, 2012
Hah, this is true.
Though, I still think Tal’s Hill is so hilariously bad that it is awesome.
jello44 - February 5, 2012
wtf is that thing?
Oooooooh I get it. I hit one of those swirly things with a baseball, or knock over a flamingo, I get a prize, right? My god that is truly hideous.
HTown80 - February 6, 2012 via mobile
That Marlins thing is horrible.
Also, I may be in the minority, but I like Tal’s Hill.
jmike - February 6, 2012
I agree
I think that if we have a cf that can play it(like the one we traded to atl), it can be a “home field advantage”. it is funny to see opposing cf try and fail to play the hill.

My favorite memory of Tal’s hill is seeing Colby Rasmus chase a ball up Tal’s hill.
Timothy De Block - February 7, 2012
I second or third what both of you have said about Tal’s Hill.
clack - February 6, 2012
I think it's fantastic
It’s so outrageous that a lot of people hate it initially, but it will come to serve as the spirit of Miami when they have a playoff team because every home run will cause the thing to light up in spectacular fashion. The most passionate Miami Marlins fans will eventually come to love it because it will signify the great events that happen inside the park.
