Reversing course on what seemed like a done deal with the Braves, Ken Griffey Jr instead opted to return to the Seattle Mariners, signing a one-year deal worth everything in the world to me $2 million, plus incentives.
It’s important that we few Seattle fans celebrate this signing not just with nostalgia, but with spite and vengeance. To wit: IN YOUR FACE ATLANTA!!! What were those assholes trying to do, anyway? Griffey is an oft-injured 39-year-old who’s a liability in the field — he’s not exactly the missing component from a team that needs just one more piece to be a contender. But dammit, he’s SEATTLE’S oft-injured 39-year-old defensive liability. And those Atlanta assholes tried to ruin it.
Man, this really couldn’t have worked out any better. I get to celebrate the return of Junior to an M’s uniform AND I get to hate something new. Suck it, Braves.

wow. I had no idea that male-on-male gang rape could look so young and exciting. They literally fucked his hat off!
Done deal and Atlanta Braves just don’t go together…just ask Rafael Furcal.
This article will set the record for “Most times masturbated to by the poster” in With Leather history. Impressive.
Not just fuck the Braves. Not just fuck the M’s.
BUT….
Fuck baseball. When is this waste of time going to close up shop and go away? I’ve heard the “Baseball is great to go and just drink and watch the game, it’s relaxing.” So is drinking and stuffing money into a stripper’s hooch. I could get behind that as a replacement sport.

The Braves only need one more piece? Wait, what?
/seriously, Frank Wren needs to die before Bobby Cox does
Grimey, I was speaking generally. I’m well aware the Braves did poorly last year.
BRING BACK BOBBY AYALA!!!!
Uh, sweet. So now you get to see your former hero as a hollow shell of himself…um, congrats?
Ah yes, I remember the time when Bob Wolcott mounted me. It was painful and glorious at the same time.
We all live in Ayala submarine
Somewhere, Bone Buhner is smiling while he chews tobacco.
“Get him to sign on the line which is dotted”
You know Griffey called Atlanta right?
NOOOOOO!!! Oh wait…it’s baseball, who gives a shit?
You know, this warms my heart. I remember fondly late night marathons of Ken Griffey Jr. Presents Major League Baseball when I was a wee one. As a result, Griffey in a Mariners uniform was burned into my mind.
