Thread Thief 6/18 GT

Kudos to all of you for sticking with this team. Been another frustrating season for sure. In another thread it talked about how most of the people that attend Mariner games are casual fans. Interesting. I hadn't looked at it like that, but certainly makes sense.

I would agree. When they show Edgar's Cantina in the middle of the game, check out how many people aren't even facing the field? It's a singles bar, people with money that couldn't care less how the game goes are the ones attending games. Ownership doesn't care because they are making $. By the time you buy a ticket and pay to park you've spent plenty, but that doesn't include food or drinks. It's a complete joke, which is why the real fans don't go. Or at least don't go as much.

And I've seen a couple people in that cantina almost get their heads caved in by home run balls. Which is more than one can say about the game against the Phillies last year when Luke Raley's upper-deck bomb drilled a fan in the head and then Justin Turner's grand slam drilled another fan in the head. I mean, that's a record that's even more unbreakable than Johnny Vandermeer's back-to-back no-hitters.

Crochet already off to a lethal start. Moore is not a leadoff hitter anymore. Would rather JP facing Lethal Crochet over Moore anyday!!!!

Again Cal is the only offense we got out there today. Everyone else is gonna be straight Garbage would so love to be wrong!!!!

Welp that might be plenty for Crochet. Mayer can hit wow!!!

Well maybe it won't Garver and Solano being productive today

What I will never get is why don't they just go to a bar. No "cover charge"

Dave Valle peddling the Suites and Sushi during the broadcast. Just a joke.

I watch the other teams' broadcasts too and never see them doing puff pieces like that.

Again, make the company money. The product on the field is third or fourth priority. OK, more likely worse than that even.

It's money, all money, that's like the top ten priorities.

To go along with the "SGNILWAR" imprints on their heads.

100% agree. Aaron Goldsmith making jokes too. You want a joke, how about the Mariners team on that last road trip.

Everything is rainbows and cherries in his world. Annoying. Give me the radio guys over him any day.

What is with Castillo giving up all these home runs?
