- ok, I really don't see the big deal, to be honest. -- nm - groiny Feb 22, 07:14 5
  - It was basically, I’m tired of paying for translators so non-English people should learn English to play for the Mariners. - spamlet Feb 22, 07:23 4
    - Plus he pissed off the team captain and best player by calling him overpaid and said he won’t be wearing a Mariners uniform next year. - spamlet Feb 22, 07:25 3
      - well, to be honest, Seager is overpaid. -- nm - groiny Feb 22, 07:27 2
        
        Eh, they signed him his rookie year because they thought they were screwing him. I'm not sad that he came out on top. -- nm - spamlet Feb 22, 07:58 1
        
        he had a couple miserable years in there, bounced back a bit last year -- nm - groiny Feb 22, 07:59
He made a couple poor comments about two particular foreign players and their inability to speak english. -- nm - Volnelk Feb 22, 06:59 3
- As well as openly admitting to manipulating or planning to manipulate player's service time. -- nm - Krusty Feb 22, 07:01 2
  - everyone does this, why is it a big deal to say it? -- nm - groiny Feb 22, 07:12 1
    - Yeah, I don't see that part as a huge deal. - Volnelk Feb 22, 07:15
