After the M's loss this afternoon, John McLaren evidently blew his top.
Tom Glasgow of the KOMO post game show said we'd hear the audio once they edited it, and then you heard a voice in the background saying "there's no way to edit it."
Says Glasgow: "I don't think you're going to hear any audio. This is, after all, a family program."
Look for lots of [bleeps] in tomorrow's papers.
UPDATE: Tom Glasgow says this is the most profane comments he's ever heard from a Seattle manager. "An eruption of Mt. St. Helens proportion," he says.

My quick transcription...
"We're going to do this a little bit different. I'll say a couple of things and that's it. We're playing our ass off every day and got nothing to show for it. I'm tired of f***ing losing, I'm tired fo getting my ass beat and so are those guys. We gotta change this f***ing s**t around and get after it and only we can do it. The fans are pissed off and I'm pissed off and the players are pissed off and that's the way it is. There's no f***ing easy way out of this. We can't feel sorry for ourselves. We gotta f***ing buckle it up and get after it. I'm tired of g**damned losing this f***ing game every night. We bust our ass. It's gotta be a total team-f***ing effort to turn this thing around and that's it."
Just heard it--KJR managed to edit it...that sounds about right, although I'm not sure exactly what it means. Everyone's pissed off...so....
King 5 has the video and... yeah, he's swearing, but he doesn't really sound that angry. Maybe Piniella, Lee Elia, and Jim Leyland have desensitized me. Mac says "I'm tired of effing losing," but it just looks like he's tired.
Here's a link to video of the "tirade." I agree with Brad -- it sounds more tired than angry.
