So far, so good. But what in the world did the kids do to deserve this:
team president David Samson will be acting as "Principal for the Morning." Among his tasks will be reading the morning announcements on the in-house TV channel.
Then, accompanied by administrators, Samson will tour the school and visit the designated classes where Marlins employees will be teaching.
I guess the upside to this is that, while Samson is scarring the poor children for life, he won't be alienating any local politicians and messing up any potential stadium deal.
