Even Die-Hard M's Fans Have Thrown in the Towel

I mean, I guess it's good to know that I am not alone in my frustrations about this, but it's kind of sad, too.

What this really means is that fewer and fewer people will be willing to be vocal enough to keep up the pressure on ownership to do what is right for the baseball fans of this city. Declining attendance and support will mean that Seattle is likely to become Kansas City in truth, rather than just in spirit. Decreased revenues will lead to decreased payrolls, which will lead to an even worse team on the field, which will lead to an even more vicious cycle than the one that "we" are in now.

Angry or apathetic? Apathy is ALWAYS bad, anger not necessarily so, if approached rationally (I know, that is an oxymoron, but it is true).

Be angry enough to keep letting Howard Lincoln and those above him that what has gone on for the last three years is unacceptable. Send e-mails to the fan feedback e-mail. Keep making your blog posts and posts in the fan forums. You might just be surprised who reads them. Keep making those calls to KJR and the other sports talk shows. You might be surprised who is listening to them.

Don't give up. All that will do is bring back the pre-1995 days. Don't let Seattle become Kansas City or Tampa Bay.
