Samson didn't appreciate the contract -
I would say it’s the end of the world as we know it. … I am speechless by that contract. … It’s unbelievable. Literally, it will take the sport down, that contract. We’re right back to the ridiculous contracts. It can’t be.
Mariners' GM Bill Bavasi didn't appreciate Samson -
My mother always taught me that if the only thing you have to say is, '[bleep] Dave Samson,’ then don’t say anything at all. So I’m not going to say anything at all. Is my mother the greatest or what?
