Marlins announcers need a new slogan

by Giants15 on Jul 24, 2010 8:31 PM EDT

I have now witnessed maybe the most annoying slogan in the world. Dan Uggla goes yard and then it happens. " His name is Dan Uggla" It makes no sense to me at all. Here is a link for those who haven't heard it.

Its like saying if he doesn't hit a homer his name is Luis Castillo. i'd love to hear some creative people come up with a new slogan that we can give to these guys

It makes no sense to you because you don't know its origin.

Marlins fans do.

Dude, don't come over to our site and make ignorant posts.

It is a well loved saying, rich in history.

HIS NAME IS DAN UGGLA

Slogan

That specific saying was brought to life by the fact that in Dan Uggla’s first season w/ the marlins no one knew his name or said it wrong. So the announcers started to call out his name everytime he hit a home run so that there would be no confusion in how to say his name. It has become a well known saying to true marlins fans for the last three years and hopefully for a few more years to come.

Confession

One of my favorite things about being a Marlins fan is saying it with Hutton…..AND HIS NAME IS DAN UGGLA! Sign him! Han, Dan, LoMo, Gaby and Big Mike….and a new stadium too! I can’t wait to see the Miami Marlins unis……
