I need some links to research on how things were in the 80's and 90's to see if I could make a correlation from present time to past time.

I would like to thank everyone for voting for this profile to win. There wasn't really anything special to it. Just two simple colors, a picture and a dunk over a seven foot two white guy. Maybe its the network.

Once again its that time for the NFL's Combine. It should be called the over thinking of any draft prospect that has a glorified practice session. This is about as bad as Pro Bowl. The question should be can the guy play football or not. Not the discrimination of the size, height and speed. You're not going to find a perfect player, so stop trying to think that the this is going to make your decision any easier. The World Series of Poker has the same amount of chances of finding a gem or bust as the Combine does. For every Moneymaker that wins the World Series, there is a guy like Raymer that can actually make a good career out of it. For every Akili Smith, there is a Tom Brady. What is the difference of this event? Not a damn thing.

Dave Niehaus has been the only play-by-play guy this franchise has ever known in its full history. He finally got the call for the Ford Frick award, sending him into the hall of fame. This has been long overdue for a while now. He never has been that guy to make too much attention to himself. There isn't the annoying gimmicks that the White Sox play by play announcers does. You wont see him on the four letter network making a fool of himself. Then I got to thinking, Seattle has been very blessed with announcers here.

Seahawks: Raible since 1976
Sonics: Collabro since the 80's i think
Mariners: Neihaus since 1977

The M's today named Erik Bedard their OPENING DAY STARTER. I would have like to see Felix and Bedard at least have a battle for this job. I think they could push each other to having a solid seasons this year. This could be a crossroads type of a year for Seattle. Most of the team is signed through 2010, but yet again the ML team is aging quickly on offense. We had that problem before and it never seems to get fixed since the 2000-2001 season. Bavasi, we have the youthful pitching, go out and get younger on offense for the sake of the fans or step off the train.

In the funniest of turns, supposedly confident Brian Billick thought he was coming back in 2008. So much that for that theory as he got canned today out of nowhere. Maybe next time, Billick will actually not get too secure and beat the lowly Dolphins. Now about the Dolphins, What should they do with Cam Cameron, give him another chance or look elsewhere? Also should they ask Zach Thomas to retire before he ends up being a shell altogether? This NFL offseason should be very interesting to say the least.

I keep hearing about the Mariners making a big splash for a SP or two. Yet the only guy we signed was a middle of the rotation starter in Carlos Silva. Bavasi knows hes on the hot seat. Why can't he pull the trigger on anyone? If we have to sacrifice some of the future to get a guy like Haren, Bedard or Santana, DO IT. All of Seattle knows we have money and resources to get some people here. I just don't think that Bavasi is the guy to get us over the hump that is the LA Angels.

Well now see. That makes it tough. Because Elisha (not Manning) is way hot. So now it's really up for debate.

I respectfully disagree.

The beginning of the whole parody was priceless.

The part with Ano asking why Hiro just doesn't stop the Holocaust or the Kennedy assassination (plus the comic book detailing EVERYTHING), was pretty funny.
