Free Fries at McDonald's every time the Mariners score 5 or more runs in a game!... and no, they don't have to win the game for you to WIN! free fries.
If this promotion isn't the epitome of Mariner-ism, I don't know what is. -
I will agree that it is a great representation of Mariner-ism. But I respectfully disagree that it is THE epitome of Mariner-ism. I would have to say that, without a doubt, the epitome of this sickness and loser mentality happened on the final day of the 2014 regular season.sarktastic said:Free Fries at McDonald's every time the Mariners score 5 or more runs in a game!... and no, they don't have to win the game for you to WIN! free fries.

The Mariners were 1 game back of the wild card and needed a win and an Oakland loss to force a 1 game playoff. The Mariners were in the 5th inning of their final game against the Angels when the scoreboard flashed the final score of another game; the Athletics had won, ending the Mariners' wild card hopes in the process. To a normal fan base that cares about winning, you would expect a lot of seats being kicked, f bombs being sprayed and fans immediately starting their long walk to their cars to gain some perspective.
But what did the Marinoors do? After a few seconds of disbelief, the Marinoor fans, in unison, gave an impromptu rousing standing ovation during the middle of an inning to a team that tanked down the stretch and missed the wild card by one game. Frankly, I was surprised that I was surprised because even though I know the average Marinoor fan is a fucktard, the sheer loser mentality of the gesture was beyond embarrassing. I'm sure Rick Rizzs was proud.

I'll be at opening day, stop by section 135 and say hello. I go every year and here's me loving last year's 1st game.

There's no reason that you can't be pissed AND show appreciation.
For many, there were no expectations last year. I got resoundingly skewered at the beginning of the year when I said that they'd win 85+.
They should win 95+ this year. -
The M's seem to be the pick by a lot of experts this year
The season must be over -
This is the Cliff Lee season all over again. The team had overachieved (for the M's) and won 80 something games. Now withRaceBannon said:The M's seem to be the pick by a lot of experts this year
The season must be overCliff LeeNelson Cruz, no reason to think they won't win 90 plus.
M's win 70 games and Jack Z will still have his job. -
They can probably underachieve but still be "in the race." They will be around 500 and 5 games back of the playoffs in the summer and the local media will still obsess over it like they have a chance.RoadDawg55 said:

If the Mariners only win 70 games, Jack Z's couch will be on the market.
