The consensus seems to be that Marlins Ballpark's home run celebration machine is tacky, over-the-top, nonsensical and just plain awful. All of those adjectives are accurate, except for "awful", which should be replaced with "awesome."

"Did you hear that? They called you exotic- which is just people-speak for 'awesome!'"
"Those cocksuckers asking me if I thought we were gonna go up there and try to work his fuckin’ pitch count ‘cause he’s on three fuckin’ days rest…you know what I told those cocksuckers? He pitch ball, ball cross plate, we gonna knock the shit out of it."

Agreed.
Had they stopped short of how far over the top they went, I would have thought it was awful. Instead they went to a degree of camp I find incredible.

I find it incredible as well.
As in, I cannot believe somebody would actually build that in a major league baseball stadium.
Anger logic's so great I kinda forget what we saw in regular logic in the first place.

It's an enormous troll face in center field to piss of the opposition.
I approve.

I can't wait until the Astros are in the AL West:
What I thought at that point is, could Houston potentially have a below-average defensive player at every spot on the field in 2012?
C Chris Snyder (-3 DRS)
1B Brett Wallace (-3.5 UZR)
2B Jose Altuve (-2.9 UZR)
SS Jed Lowrie (-4.9 UZR)
3B Jimmy Paredes (-2.3 UZR)
LF Carlos Lee (-10 UZR)
CF Jordan Schafer (-2.1 UZR)
RF Jack Cust (-7.7 UZR)
HNNNNNNGGGGG
What happened to their catcher that was supposed to be a badass?
And I didn’t know Cust signed with them. Wow, Astros.

at least they have one player in Wallace who I would like to have
Go Rice Owls!
Would be a Matt Harrison fan, but I only like superstars
I don't know if Oakland has a single position player who I want

that dude has a massive lower half.
