JEFFREY LORIA RUMORS
BASEketball Invades the Marlins Ballpark
Jeffrey Loria, the owner of the MLB’s newly branded Miami Marlins, took risks in the development of his new ballpark. From flashy colors to treating the stadium like a contemporary art gallery, the homerun feature really takes the cake.

Guillen has lived in Florida in the offseasons while managing the Chicago White Sox; he has managed Cuban players who have helped...

Muhammad Ali delivers first pitch in Miami
MIAMI -- Just when the Miami Marlins thought there were no more surprises in store at their new stadium that seems to have everything, a 70-year-old man was escorted into the clubhouse before Wednesday's first game.
It was Muhammad Ali.
"When he walked in here, everybody was sort of staring and then they dropped their jaws," said Marlins owner Jeffrey Loria. "...

You Want To Know Why Jeffrey Loria Is A Giant Asshole? Here’s Why
The legend of Jeffrey Loria being a Grade A asshole are legendary and go back to his days of holding the city of Montreal hostage over a baseball stadium deal.

Marlins Owner Jeffrey Loria is a Quotable Poet
Florida Miami Marlins owner Jeffrey Loria made his fortune in the art dealing business so we shouldn't be surprised that he speaks in a colorful manner.

Miami Marlins owner Jeffrey Loria and Maroon 5 have similar design tastes
Not sure which logo came first, but it wouldn’t be a stretch to assume one designer drew inspiration from the other. Thanks to Sun Sentinel reader Carlos Miller for making us aware of the similarity between the cover art for the Maroon 5 hit single “Moves Like Jagger” and the Miami Marlins new logo. The Maroon 5 ‘M’ lacks the Marlins’ orange and...
