Joanna – To be honest, all that whistle made me think was that a freight train was going to come crashing through the perimeter of the ballpark. Maybe M’s fans’ acceptance of it is like how we Sox fans are used to the idiots banging on the buckets or the guys selling bootleg t-shirts and bottled tap water on the 35th Street bridge.

Pac-10 – I agree wholeheartedly with your last sentence.

Good article about The Safe we call home. It sounds dumb if you don’t live here, but the trainwhistle actually grows on you after a while. It’s like you hear that horn blow and everyone thinks, “Alright, here come the Mariners!” Of course the Mariners usually don’t come around and do much, and we even know this beforehand. I guess that’s the Seattle sense of irony and sports-related sarcasm at work.

I can’t believe you (or ANYONE!) paid good money to watch that piece of crap game. Scott Linebrink personally owes you a refund.

That’s pretty much sums it up. I’ve been here long enough to see some great M’s teams (2000, 2001) and some bad ones (all the rest) and both times people were about the same, only difference between whether they said their “Meh”‘s at Safeco (when the team was good) or at the bar (when they were bad).

But I really think Safeco is the best park in America, and I’ve been to most of them.
