Mariners fan here- all of them need to be tossed over the wall. First the Manager then the players. They were one win away from the World Series last year…. But just after Raleigh broke the record… he disappeared. Gone. This year- he walks around like he doesn’t give a shit whether he plays or not.
My old coach would say - show up and give it your all every play, every inning every game. We slacked off one game (after a lot of underage drink fest) My coach looked at all of the players on the bench that were actively watching the game…. Called them up- and pulled every single starter and backup. Put in the 3rd string reserves. 7 players played -we lost. He was still mad the following game. Same 7 played. Lost.
Never made it to State.
Never ever forget that it’s a privilege to play. Toss em all.
Go Hawks!!!
