Dont get me wrong, the Mariners have been one of my favorite teams for a very long time (when I was a kid I liked them because Nintendo owned them, and when I grew up that liking just kind of stuck) and I think it's awesome that Ichiro beat the record. He is by far one of the best (and probably the best) hitter in a long time. He has proven that by breaking a record that no one else could, even with the 8 extra games.
I was just pointing out that our athaletes dont seem to be as good as they were back in the day.
