Lowell To Buffett

Jeff Miller of the Miami Herald pays homage to Mike Lowell as a team player, and disparages Jimmy Buffett as a traitor:


No kidding. Mr. Margaritaville, the man who wrote a song entitled Floridays, who called one of his albums A1A, who is a Heat season-ticket holder, wore a Cubs jersey while singing Take Me Out To The Ballgame during the seventh-inning stretch.

''I'm not gonna sell too many albums in Florida this week,'' Buffett joked, before explaining that he has been a long-time follower of this enemy franchise.

So, instead of being one of South Florida's most popular citizens, turns out Buffett is just another guy from South Florida who doesn't care about the Marlins.

Funny thing, though. Based on the way these guys are playing, the way they seem to be sticking all the baseball's face in it, they probably don't care much about Buffett, either.

Let him be a Cubs fans. It's his own damn fault.
