I think this is the first time I actually agree with what Mariotti said.

Whats so racist about it, because it has slanty eyes? Is the message racist? I dont get it... Mariners fans never made anything like that for Ichiro, Kenji,or Kaz... Maybe that's a good thing...

You folks are living in an alternate reality if you can't see the derogatory take of that t-shirt. It's not necessary to be Asian to see the pushing ofstereotypes here. What's the mystery?

In my opinion, Mariners fans that actually go to games or cheer for the team are a little more diverse than those of Cubs fans. If I'm wrongthen I am sorry, but since the Kingdome was 1 to 2 blocks removed from our International Disctrict (China Town) there is/was a much closer relationship betweenthe team and the Asian community.

I don't find it that offensive but I can see how someone would be offended tho.. Whatever..
