The Mariners lost A-Rod, Randy Johnson, and finally Griffey Jr. before the 2001 season, in which they came out and one 116 games. There's no movie or hardly a mention about it now.

Then the A's took them out with their 20 game winning streak from the movie in 2002. There should be a movie about the M's too but it would point out that it was done by garnishing a star from Japan and having a 2B-man on steroids...as well as Moneyball. It was Moneyball +2, but done one year earlier.

Still, it was 116 games. Before going on a huge losing streak for the next decade.

Now both teams suck. In the end, you do it with big $, or prospects gained after sucking for many years because you're paying A-Rod too much when you're not the Yankees.
