What my diffenbachia thinks about the M's

Yeah! We're only one game out of the wildcard! In August! We should hoist Bill Bavasi and John McLaren on our leaves and march them around Seattle to honor their glorious achievement! Who would have thought that could be done with only 4 years and an enormous payroll? All Hail Bavasi!

Whoo hoo! Seattle isn't in last place!! Or even third!!! We're on target for a winning season! It doesn't get any better than this.

Now if we all keep thinking positive thoughts, pray to our beloved Mariners superstars (like Rick White) faithfully, and close our eyes REAL tight, I bet we'll even be able to WIN IT ALL!!!! Plus, we'll all get ponies for Christmas this year!! (Finally, some organic fertilizer!)

I'm so proud to be a fan of such a well-run, successful franchise. Who could be luckier than we few?

And shame on all those nasty bloggers and mean old fans with all their STATS and NEGATIVE VIBES when they dare to criticize our heroes! John McLaren is awesome! After all, if we just lost six in a row, then surely we MUST have a six-game winning streak coming up! Then all will be right with the world.

Yeah team!

Hey, why don't we play Bloomie more often?
