we need that in a meme.

This was very revealing as a lifelong fan as well. I've never understood this team, but this makes much more sense

If anything, I would see this as a huge positive from a Mariner fans perspective because this man singlehandedly blew up their entire strategy as an organization. Now, with the magnifying glass on them, they can’t risk manipulating the young prospects in the farm who are big league ready, unless they want to deal with multiple grievances from the players which they will win easily. So all in all, now Mariners fans get to see their prized prospects start to come up and help turn this their team around.

@@Sportsdude2251 If only.

Same .Love our Ms but hate the higher ups

I'd be organizing a boycott, even still, if I was a Mariners fan.

I’d assume they all think like this, but I doubt they even say it unless they’re in a super private meeting

which is why this is going to make collective bargaining next year insane

He wanted to shout it on top of a mountain, but he didn't have a mountain, he had a internet zoom session.

I would assume so as well, but that's what sets the Mariners apart. Their ownership is dumb enough to publicly say it

“If you’re gonna be a dick, be a dick quietly” ...maybe he should listen to what he says?

Is it even just the foot at this point?

So many shots, he must have reloaded at some point

He didn’t shoot himself in the foot , people just freaking out over absolutely nothing lol

i'm surprised the pr team didn't bust down his door and shut him up

He is now footless.

Brilliant comment

I'm sorry man

No time is a good time to be a Mariners fan

Me too man :( me too :(

To be honest we are used to this every year Mariners great at beginning of season by end we last place...

im a mariners fan as well

@Fizzgig Fizzgig The way I see it under the current system it all comes out in the wash; because as you can tell from this little episode of verbal diarrhea this guy just presented with; the players spend so many years being underpaid while they're young and are actually performing at a high level that by the time they are older and their production has slid and they are blasted as being overpaid it doesn't matter in the aggregate.

Lol that was so random

@Fizzgig Fizzgig he is but Seags has given a lot to Seattle and for ownership to disrespect him like that is way out of line

@Fizzgig Fizzgig Like hell. There was one year where Seager was overpaid. There have been many more years where he has provided way more value in excess of his salary to make up for it, including the last two. He's been paid $83 million by the Mariners, and he's delivered nearly $250 million dollars in on-field value.

Slander, plain and simple

I’m a mariner fan and the browns have given me the slightest hope

What sad is if this was another American business he’d be lauded as a smart business owner by other rich folk. The rich get richer in America and we support it.

I doubt this is really an isolated incident and that he is not the only person in this position who thinks and acts this way.

So, him coming out as being so cheap definitely fits why I stopped being a season ticket holder. When Mather took over, in 2018 I think. I recieved my renewal paperwork with a letter from Kevin Mather, discussing that Season ticket and regular ticket prices would be going up this year. This didn't bother me much, it's expected over time prices will rise. But what bothered me was his explanation in the letter. He continued to add that, "For years Seattle Mariners season tickets have been priced at some the lowest priced in the MLB, with this increase we will still be in the middle of the pack and still be offering great benefits." This dug at me, nothing about using the extra money to pay staff, player or anything specific, just raising prices because they are one of cheapest currently. And I'm a Mariners fan win or lose, but when you haven't been in the playoffs in 15+ years, you can't expect to be "in the middle of the pack" with prices. It was an obvious "only about the money" move. Jerk. Glad he's gone.

As a seattle born Mariners fan. I am depressed on how stupid our president is

I completely agree with you on this, but this question is made in good faith so don’t assume there is some sinister intent behind it: if an American player has been in Japan for 7+ years do you still expect him to not learn Japanese? I’ve always wondered about that.

This feels like the most plausible explanation.

Second, I recognize this and was looking for this comment.

Exactly!!! Most in the comments, and even Jomboy himself are taking it the complete wrong way. There has to be much more to this story, no way does an executive self sabotage this many times in a row unintentionally. How can so many people watch this and just assume the guy is dense??? Not too impressed with this breakdown tbh, it is obvious something fishy is going on. The follow up with the background would be so much more juicier than "Oh, isn't this guy bad, he said bad thing".

Or maybe he's telling the Truth

Thank you. I was like he sounds a bit, er, medicated like he is in legal drug chill mode right now.

Why do you sound like a woman

SNN Funny you'd say that because that's what a woman would say

This is honestly among the stupidest things to ever come out of baseball. And for it to come out of seattle mariners, a joke of a team in mlb, is just pure poetry.

I think he's high as fuck and just spilling all the tea. Look at that split lip, he hittin some kind of hot ass pipe lol

I doubt this is a rotary club.

Honestly, the hero of the story is whoever at the Rotary Club released this.

Even monetarily. Dude just revealed that his TV deal was more than he deserved. Imagine future negotiations with TV people knowing this. Grade A Moron.

This is fascinating. It somehow reminds me of that viral clip of the lawyer with the cat filter on, and he can't turn it off. This guy just watched Jim Carrey in Liar Liar and had his honesty filter on, and he couldn't turn it off....bizarre, to say the least.

@@matthowie6979 Baseball has something like that. I think it is called the rule 4 draft. But it's pretty limited. I think the player has to have a certain level of service time.

@@Sphere723 rule 5 draft. If a player signs at 18 or younger they have 5 years and if they are 19 or older they have four years. But if they are on the 40 man roster they cannot be drafted.

In all honesty, I've given up on Sportscenter. I get my scoops from Jomboy, Fuzzy, UrinatingTree, Five Point Vids, and other channels like those.

@@MaxShinGun urinatingtree is so funny

@Andrew Tobin back in the 90s and early 00s it was pretty simple. They just showed daily highlights from every game played that day. It was a tight hour, and that was it. When ESPN started broadcasting games, they couldn't show as many highlights from competing networks. The show gradually devolved into 24 hour news style nonsense, where the hosts just needlessly argue their "hot takes" instead of just covering the days games. They flat out ignore the majority of games these days. I think it was the Ray Rice stuff that made me completely give up on it. How many times do I have to hear the same story in a single month? I mean, covering the Ray Rice story is essentially 5 minutes of coverage. I get it, it's a big story, but for real, what happened in the Cardinals game yesterday?

@@DreamMorpheus42 Not only that ESPN exclusively focuses on sports that they have big money TV deals on. This is why you'll hear baseball for 5 minutes, hockey for 1 minute a year and 24 hours a day on NFL and NBA. Hell, you hear more about Women's basketball which has the same amount of fans in the stands pre and post pandemic. This is why they have those douchebags that milk LeBron vs Jordan useless debates because the NBA playoffs is almost always anticlimactic.

@@MaxShinGun I don’t recommend Fuzzy, he doesn’t fact check his content and he’s super biased

Nobody needed this, but us Mariner semi-faithful and player supporters have known this was a thing for... a long time.
