The question every Seattle sports fan was asking after the Mariners' brutal loss last Monday in Toronto was simple. Was that the most devastating loss in Seattle sports history? More devastating even than the Seahawks' Super Bowl XLIX loss to the New England Patriots?
Both games hurt, and both games probably led to a lot of nightmares and bad dreams in the following weeks. But which was worse?
The short answer is that, yes, for now, the Mariners' ALCS Game 7 loss is the worst in Seattle history. The long answer is that it's complicated, and won't be settled for years.
