From ESPN:

The verbal sparring continued Friday in the aftermath of comments by Marlins president David Samson objecting to the Seattle Mariners for the five-year, $90 million contract the team awarded to All-Star outfielder Ichiro Suzuki.

Samson said the lucrative contract would ''take the sport down,'' among other thingsl. Mariners president Chuck Armstrong shot back on Thursday, saying, ``It strikes us as bizarre that Samson would go public and make such a statement.''Added Mariners general manager Bill Bavasi on Friday: 'My mother always taught me that if the only thing you have tosay is `[expletive] David Samson,' you shouldn't say anything at all.So I'm not going to say anything at all.''

Samson said Friday he is done discussing the issue.

Don't like the Ichiro contract, but you gotta love the defense.
