More Reaction To Howard Lincoln's Anti-Media Email

Jason Puckett of 950 KJR writes that Seattle Mariners CEO Howard Lincoln can’t have it both ways when it comes to the team’s relationship with the media. He also reiterates a growing storyline among many observers: accountability for the franchise’s recent failures needs to come from within, not from attacks on the media.

How many managers in the last nine years? How many general managers in the last nine years? How many different players have come and gone in the last nine years? How many CEO’s and president’s in the last nine years?
