I Give Up
David Cameron describes the state of the roster far more simply and eloquently than I ever could.
For several months I've been feeling that the quality of this blog has declined greatly. At first blogging the Mariners was therapeutic and fun; now I'm beaten, I'm tired, and I have little to say that I haven't already said. The current management has taken away the joy. I hate that so many of us in the blogosphere were right.
With the callup of Santiago, I think I've had it. I am still a Mariners fan; that part stays. But if I'm going to enjoy the team I've got to put a bit more distance between myself and the current management debacles. And it's not as if I'm leaving a huge void in Mariners coverage.
I'm not going to give up blogging, but I can't be as intense about the Mariners as I've been. I'll probably blog occasionally about other teams or about baseball in general.
I'll talk about the Mariners again when I think there's something new to say. Or maybe when Corey (the Mariner Optimist) comes back - that might do it for me as well.
If you don't add me to your Favorites and link to my posts, I'll shoot this dog.
Same thing for commenters. More comments or Fido gets it (and it won't be pretty).
