 Note Loria's remarks about the current payroll

It's a function of revenues, and we were not really able to derive any revenues out of this facility, as we get closer to the (new) stadium, those things will change. We need to be in that facility."

At the end of 2008, the Marlins have received about $200 million   in revenue sharing

http://www.hardballtimes.com/main/article/the-loria-and-short-of-it/

"It depends what the deal looks like. In cities where the public has fully built the stadium, I can understand the expectations for the payroll to be high. In a community where right now we've offered the fourth-largest contribution in the history of new stadiums, there is certainly a correlation between that contribution and what the payroll can be. So if we have to go even higher to get a deal done here, it will impact our payroll."  Loria said.

...in 2007 the Marlins were valued at $244,000,000 an increase of $100,500,000...

Forbes estimates that the value of the club can expect to jump at least $40 million in value in the new stadium's first year of operation

 Loria and Samson have consistently refused to open their books to public scrutiny

Therefore, using these few numbers without selling a ticket or hot dog, yet alone receiving national TV money, local TV and radio revenue, or a nickel for MLB*AM over eight freaking years do you think they're starving in South Florida? These numbers aren't hard and fast obviously, but they do demonstrate that Loria and Samson have been made incredibly wealthy by simply owning the team.
