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 . . .
