I'm Trying To Rationalize This But I Can't.

Fuck you Bill Bavasi.  I've defended move after move, I even tried to see the good in getting Horacio Ramirez for a player clearly more valuable than him.  So what's the deal with trading a player that Bill Bavasi himself said he liked at many a USSM feed?  Jose Vidro is going to be worse than Carl Everett.  Any idiot can see that.  Then again, any idiot wouldn't have signed Carl Everett last year.  Snelling would've been our best hitter this year if he had ful playing time.  What other hitter would hit .280/.380/.450 on this team?  This deal is worst than Varitek/Lowe for Slocumb.  I'm glad I got my Snelling autographed ball before this shit went down.  

When Snelling lights up the NL, you'll regret it Bill.  Have fun finding a job this year, and please, take Howard Lincoln with you.  Jeff Sullivan for CEO!  Jason A. Churchill for GM!  Hell, I'd take my ex-girlfriend's partially retarded sister over Bavasi now.  Congratulations Bill, you just sabotaged a franchise just before leaving it.  

Who wants to go start an anti-Bavasi/Lincoln/Armstrong rally at the Safe right now?  I'll bring the gasoline if you bring the torches!  Seriously.  Let's organize like, a thousand people to go protest this bull shit.

That said, I'd be shocked if this wer ethe end. the next more is going to be trade Ben Broussard to the Orioles for a bag of magic beans. THEN we'll be done.

I think he would have traded Mary and baby Jesus for a 15 year old Donkey, with a history of lameness.

Bavasi/Joeseph quote from the Jerusalem Times "But hey, that Donkey is a veteran. And look...he worked for the conquering Romans. He is a proven winner!"

its either F or "I think you mean Thompson"

I want to blame this on Hargrove, like the Choo trade, but I can't. It's just stupid.

As soon as I get a chance I'm going to Seattle and burning my Johjima jersey and my Mariner hat outside of Safeco field.

What the FUCK?!

We ALL hate this offseason.  Brothers, unite!

Seriously, that's the only thing keeping me a Mariner fan is you people.

"He said he is working hard this offseason to be a second baseman."

" 'I definitely want to play second base and that's where I think I'm going to play.' "

It wouldnt make sense for him to waive his NTC to come to a team where he wont play second base.  Even if the Nats told him he wouldn't be playing second base in Washington, he'd only accept a trade to a team that would allow him to play 2B.

Bye bye Lopez.  Probably getting Tim Hudson and Lopez will replace Giles and become an All-Star.  And thats me being totally hopeful.

oh and is Broussard the full time DH now?

im so lost right now, I know like 5 names on the active roster right now,lol.

See ya at the bottom

My.

God.

That is all.  Just... wow.

They may lose some stupid games and we might kick and scream at the D, but at least they put a freakin winner on the field.  Honestly there going to get a home playoff game and yet I've still complained, NEVER AGAIN!....THANK YOU SEAHAWKS!!!

I porbably could of made this exact same post about the M's in 2001 when the Hawks were sleeping with the fishes,lol.

Which means we traded a good, young, cheap DH for a worse, older, expensive one. But he switch-hits!

A real thinning of the herd going on.

Lopez isn't going anywhere. Broussard's getting dealt for whatever.

I honestly cannot find the right words for this.

I'll hang around the blogs until the start of the season, because it's comforting to have people to empathize with.

But I hate this team.

I'm just curled up in to a little ball and wanting to die.

After:
 

Yeah, they're both clowns, but this had to be done.
