eh– when she was with KOMO, and Fox would play the postgame remarks, you’d hear her asking questions then …

Fox didn’t fire her.

I think the telescoping center portion can be separated into 3 sections ….

OK, so I guess it’s possible perhaps to extend the roof out to the homeplate side and then retract it in that direction, creating the illusion of a broken roof.

I’ve driven by the Safe a million times with the roof both retracted and extended and I’ve never seen it like that before…

…or maybe the loss to the 9ers hit me harder than I thought it did.

I have been out of touch lately but I just drove by the Safe and it looked like the roof was broken. It was extended but there was a hole where it should connect in the outfield. Am I somehow tricked by an optical illusion I think you may have been tricked by something you're smoking. If there was any major failure at Safeco you would've heard about it. It looked fine to me yesterday when I drove by sometime during the Seahawks game. The only part that "connects" with the outfield are the tracks the roof runs on (and even then the connection is only in appearance -- the roof together with its guideway and supports is essentially an entirely separate structure that just happens to fit around and over the field). Though never fear, once the parking structure bonds are paid off in 2011 the PFD (ie, us taxpayers) will still be paying to fix things at Safeco, including things (like heaters for the bullpen) that the team left out of the original build to save their own expenses.

On the postgame show, KOMO is playing audio of Riggs. The person interviewing him? Shannon Drayer.
Classy KOMO, real classy.

When the M’s went to the 5-infielder set, they put Ichiro behind second base as #5.

That left Reed and Feet of Concrete as our 2-man outfield.

Why not Raul to 1B, Cairo behind 2B?

The M’s need only 9 more losses to reach the magical 100 loss mark for the season!

Obviously Roy Corcoran didn’t pitch to his defense…

Sheesh.
