We've Hit Rock Bottom

The Mariners have the worst record in baseball.
The Seahawks are 0-1.

The Huskies are 0-2.

The Sonics are... no longer with us.

The Storm is... a WNBA team.

Simply put, it doesn't get any worse than this for the Seattle Sports Fan. You can argue that a season-ending injury to one of Seattle's star players would make things worse, but don't kid yourself...

There is nothing beyond last place.
Zero wins divided by any number of losses...
...still equates to a 0.00 winning percentage.
Our one legitimate championship is gone.
The Storm is... still a WNBA team.

I think Lloyd Dobler said it best in the Seattle based 80's classic Say Anything.

"You probably got it all figured out, Corey. If you start out depressed everything's kind of a pleasant surprise."

Things may not fair any better in the foreseeable future for the Seattle Sports Fan, but on the bright side, things can't get any worse than they already are. I for one will continue to be depressed by the current state of Seattle sports and maybe, just maybe, the next time I turn on ESPN I might find myself being pleasantly surprised...
