And just like that, we had ourselves a mini-discourse. Did the Mariners tank? Boy do people have opinions!

Unfortunately, too much of what resulted was the most annoying kind of discourse where people are talking past each other because it all depends on what someone means by a word, and a pretty loaded one at that.
