About 3 weeks ago when they got to .500 there was a path to still winning 90 games ...DerekJohnson said:
Wait... About a week ago you said they could win 90 games?Tequilla said:Until the Mariners make a change in ownership, it doesn't matter
Since that point they've proven that TSIO ... which I said last week.
By the end of next weekend with Houston coming into Seattle and winning at minimum another 2 out of 3 ... this season will be over for more and more people. -
Mariners ALCS and World Series trophy case:HFNY said:Pressing.
Lou Pinella and Pat Gillick won in Seattle and annual payroll is bigger now. A good GM and skipper can do it again.TierbsHsotBoobs said:Tequilla said:Until the Mariners make a change in city, it doesn't matter

You're an idiot Boobs ...
Aubbie moves the goalposts in large part because he can't stand being accountable for what he says ... he's the kind of the "I was right IF this, that, and everything else happened" line of thinking.
On the other hand, someone like me will make a prediction, own the prediction, yet be willing to update their prediction if/when there is further evidence that provides reason to reconsider.
Everybody fucks something up from time to time. The biggest mistake isn't the original fuck up ... it's continuing to insist that either you didn't fuck up or blaming other things for causing the fuck up. -

You are still a dumbass for failing to know that the season was over in March though.

I believe I've also said that I want to kick myself square in the nuts for being an optimist for what was put together and not trusting my better intuition of knowing how fucktarded the Mariners are as an organization.TierbsHsotBoobs said:

Until the Mariners are sold and the organization is completely cleaned out from top to bottom of all the losers that reside within it. It's rotten to its core. -
Selling would be nice but Howard Lincoln is the chief problem and he's approaching 80. Get rid of him, get rid of JZ, replace them with good baseball people, and the M's could compete for the division again.

I think Lincoln just reps Nintendo who are the majority owners. Nintendo doesn't give a shit about the Mariners, they are just some random asset that makes them a relative small amount of money. Once Lincoln goes, Nintendo will just hire some random stooge to replace him and the cycle goes on.HFNY said:Selling would be nice but Howard Lincoln is the chief problem and he's approaching 80.

True, but a random stooge is going to be an upgrade from Howie.SteveInShelton said:

The Mariners are 7 games under .500 with the 3rd worst run differential in the AL and you are talking about a back up catcher?HFNY said:I'm thinking the M's should trade for this guy to catch 2 games a week and work with Zunino on his game:

I was happy to see Weeks DFA'ed.
