Full Transcript of Mariners President Kevin Mather’s Remarks to Bellevue Breakfast Rotary Club
There is...a lot to eventually unpack here, but for now, here’s the raw material for anyone who wasn’t able to watch/hear the video

Look we know franchises game the system and use it to top benefit and also suppress player service time. Kelenic should be a Met, but that roster has young and emerging core....the issue is you can't be dismissing asian and latin foreigners that make up portions of many rosters and intl fan interest.
Without resignation, manfred should have called thia guy and say this is unacceptable conduct to our league you are banned for an indefinite period of time.
Nintendo was previously a majority stake owner in this franchise not so far ago.
This is stupid. But if we’re going to be stupid, let’s be stupid all around. Yankee fans should be appalled at Domingo German coming back as a yankee. Fans should boycott, not attend games, not buy merchandise, and cancel the Yes Network off their plan. No second chances for anyone. Forgiveness is a thing of the past. Degrade anyone and it’s one and done.

Our society is condtioned to accept and tolerate DV. Was he technically punished, indeed he was. Pro athletics is a privilege not a right.
Say your direct supervisor held an industry brain storming conference call and shared negative thoughts about you not because of the work you produce but jabs based on your gender, cultural background, you would feel fine about it?
How about this, say the head of Roc Nation Sports is speaking with industry associates and refers to Kim Miale as the T & A queen, that would be perfectly acceptable conduct in early 2021?
Dumb hypothetical, that doesn't happen.
No idea what you're talking about. I don't know who Kim Miale or T & A Queen is.
I don't understand the logic of feeling Mathers needed to be gone, but this person can regain the priviledge of making millions. Say something bad and you're permanently gone from our organization. Beat a woman, suspended for a year and you can make your millions again.
Well these are certainly stupid, irrelevant questions.
A better scenario would be if you moved to China and your boss told others that you are doing a good job but your Chinese isn't very good. Should be ZERO offense taken. NONE. ZIP. ZILCH. NADA.
I was raised with the understanding that actions speak louder than words. It seems woke society has completely turned that around. Now words speak louder than actions. Very sad.
Exactly. If I moved to France and someone said my French wasn't good, I'd laugh and say no kidding! People need to stop being offended by stuff that isn't offensive.
On Mather, this isnt about going to work in China or France as a relocation...
Teams typically have translators for Japanese/Korean players and SSLA players.
My overall care to this is not so much what he had to say about prospects and service time it was particular remarks regarding Japanese and Latin players and their particular language barrier needs. No need to self comedic relief as a slight to these people.
He is a front facing executive of a franchise and shu09 feels everything was great here.
Observing this from the outside there can be a reasonable inference made that this style and thought agenda against Asians and Latins is welcomed and accepted in the organizaton.
Again, this is the same person who also made 2 women go away some years back with NDA for workplace/sexual harrassment misconduct.
When people show you who they are the first time, believe them.

Exactly, Mr. Non-partisan, never answer a question phony.
Pretty lengthy answer. How did you ever have the time to put this answer together?
I know your intent, it is far more simplistic than the other subject matter, but you knew that already.
Of course I did, people who can't take a joke shouldn't be allowed to dish it out. If we could all laugh at ourselves, we'd all be better off.
Uhm, what is this guy resigning for? I am sorry, I don't get it. He said someone doesn't speak English well. I'm sorry but there must be other reasons this guy resigned. It can't be for this interview.
He’s in Seattle where stupid things like this are super important to many people. This may impact sales.
