Are these guys frustrating or what? They finally get a decent starting rotation and now their bullpen sucks, they cant field and they cant hit worth a darn. Will they ever get it together?

They've become like a bad poker hand. Throw'em all away, except Suzuki the ace, and start over.
2 games ago - bases loaded and walked in 2 runs.
Last night - 4 errors

They have no life, no passion, no focus, no guts, no leadership, no concentration, NO TEAM. Just a bunch of guys running around out there.

Just like old times.
Pretty soon we'll be able to get free front row seats again like back in the 80's.
Maybe if they quit charging $12 for a cup of beer and $30 for a hotdog, people will start going to games again.

Howard Lincoln sucks. Therefore his team sucks. Sucky leadership begets sucky players, sucky managers. Even the hot dog vendors suck. Willie Bloomquist would be the suckiest player in the history of suckitude if Cairo didn't suck even worse. Geez, life really sucks.

Mariners who? Seats are already empty. If they bring Griffey back, that won't do squat for them on the field.
Thank god NFL training camps start in less then two months. Go Hawks!

Maybe if they quit charging $12 for a cup of beer and $30 for a hotdog, people will start going to games again. The price of concessions has nothing to do with attendance. Seattle is a "winning-friendly" city. If you win, Seattlites will attend the games and will love you. If you lose, Seattle could give a rats butt about you. Like the Sonics. Put them in the playoffs the last 5 years and they would still be here with no hint of ever leaving. Put them in losing seasons the last 5 years and Seattle can't kick them out the door fast enough. M's better put together some winning seasons by the time Safeco falls apart and they ask for a new stadium. As long as Mr. Allen owns the Seahawks, they are safe. He's got money and will BUY a good team. I like Paul!

Seattle fans go to the Safe in droves DESPITE the fact the team doesn't win.
The enigma is they are a weakling if one measures things by winning and losing. Yet, they are one of the most profitable sports franchises in the land.
The leadership is genius when it comes to marketing. But, they are mental midgets when it comes to fielding a winner.
