a rough time to be a seattle sports fan

For those who missed it, The Times ran an article this week about the sad plight of Seattle sports: our baseball and footballs teams stink, our basketball team skipped town, and even the local college teams are a mess.  As my cabbie ironically put it yesterday: "The only thing in Seattle to be excited about it the UW Women's Cross-Country Team."  Pardon me for not being delighted.

 

The Mariners did try to improve the outlook this week by announcing the new manager, Don Wakamatsu.  I have to admit that I was disappointed; I was hoping that Willie Randolph would come out on top.  But hopefully Wakamatsu has what it takes to turn the team around and not be yet another in a long line of 1 or 2 year failures.  Speaking of which, I think my season ticket deposit is due . . .

But... cross-country is an amazing sport.
