Posted in: Mariners seek to end infighting over Ichiro See in context
difficult situation for the Mariners You can't win with Ichiro but he is one of the best players. What to do? Can they sell tickets if Ichiro is not there? Would Seattle be better with Manny?

Posted in: Would you like to see Taro Aso replaced as Japan's prime minister, and if so, who do you think would do a better job? See in context
Replacing him with another LDP member would probably not make much of a difference. I think Japan should look for someone that has been successful in another area. Perhaps a former baseball manager or a University president. Just my 2 yens worth

Asashoryu is bringing excitement to the sport. Better get rid of him before Sumo becomes popular with a younger audience.

I think rickyso has got the right idea. If Japan and China work together the sky is the limit. It may be important for the next President to keep them squabbling. I expect Obama to be friendlier to China than the Maverick. Just my 2 yens worth
