    Great day today in the Puget Sound!! 90 degrees and sunny. I went on a long bike ride, grilled up the most excellent steak, drank a lot of beer, and the Mariners WON!!!

    Not too shabby! :D

    Our Mariners are a dismal 5-15 so far for the month of May.

    Who is to blame for this stink-fest we are producing?

    Do we call for Bavasi's head or McLaren's head?

    “I look at it, and I just don’t understand it. I really don’t. The only scenario that could be worse than what’s going on right now is if we didn’t prepare and we didn’t play hard. If that was the case, it would be unbearable.”
    -John McLaren

    I really hope they keep "preparing" and "playing hard". We're 13 games under .500 and this weekend...well, yeah. I really hope we don't get swept.

    McLaren's head will roll first, but does it really put us in a better position this season? I'm not so sure.

    Yeah all that preparation, hard work, and a payroll that is in the top ten sure does seem like a recipe for losing!!! :rolleyes:

    This wouldn't suck so much if in spring training I didn't think we had a shot at anything. But i was fooled too, I thought we looked really good and poised to take the AL West....boy, was I mistaken.

    “Playing on this team and seeing what is happening around me, I feel that something is beginning to fall apart. But, if I was not in this situation, and I was objectively watching what just happened this week, I would probably be drinking a lot of beers and booing.” -Ichiro

    From the video description.

    "I was watching the score to see who won the hockey game (damn you Detroit for winning the Stanley Cup) and I turned to the score when they shown highlights from the Angels and Mariners game when I saw the manager flip out when talking to the press. I watched the score for about a hour just to get this on video and it was worth it. He flips out because of the position the Mariners are in right now as I don't really care about baseball but this was amazing to watch."

    I AGREE, this is just absurd, especially after how promising they looked in spring training

    You know it. That is why this SUCKS so much - because we looked so damn good in spring training. Fucking Bedard was supposed to be our saviour. That sure hasn't panned out the way we all thought.
