I think it is now official. We are fans of one of the worst organizations in baseball.

Anybody that thinks this team is finishing anywhere but last in 2007 is fooling themselves.

We could sign Zito tomorrow and that would not change a thing.

I loved this part on the Soriano-Ramirez trade:

Bavasi should be sued for malpractice after this one.

I liked that also.

Even the dumbest Mariners fans quickly figured out that was a stupid, stupid trade.

The "it's like taking candy from a baby" on rotoworld refering to the highway robbery that the Braves committed, is the one that cuts the deepest for me.

This has been on the website for a few days now but thought I would post it to point out the stupididy invoved. Apparently the Bavasi's completely irrational moves made sense to somebody.... I found this quite comical. To think fans are this stupid is unimaginable.

From Seattle Mariners Website

Title : Mariners' Meetings Tally: big bat, starting duo

"A power-hitting outfielder? Check. A pair of starting pitchers for the rotation? Ditto. The Mariners made huge strides at this year's Winter Meetings in Florida with the acquistions of slugger Jose Guillen and pitchers Horacio Ramirez and Sean White."

To try and turn the back the clocks to 2001, and the success that we enjoyed, maybe we should concentrate on signing guys that were good in 2001.

Batista would be a step in the right direction.

I disagree. John Q Mariner fan is not a very bright fellow.

Considering the way this team has performed these last few years and the payroll that the team has been doling out, management and the fans are a perfect match.
