"What was that?"

Yeah, Ken, remember that commercial?

Whether or not you remember doesn't matter. Here's the link, thanks to You Tube:

If you're looking to do something pointless, but funny, here's the answer.

Thanks to the Mariners' website for the commercials.

Number 10

Congrats, Edgar! Your amazing career continues on my masterpiece.

Who will open the Safe's roof? We know the answer.

And in this commercial: open or closed?

"We'll be playing outside today!"

Number 9

When Ichiro comes out, there seems no way to stop him. So evolved the "Ichiro Shift."

The infielders all move between first and second base, the outfielders play between second and third, and the bullpen plays outfield.

Ichiro gets past them all!

Number 8

"Sometimes five, sometimes eight!"

Watch as the "Us" go through their normal work day, and come to the game.

Number 7

"Oh, you weren't."

http://seattle.mariners.mlb.com/media/player/mp_tpl_3_1.jsp?w=/2007/open/teams07/sea/video/031307_sea_serious_heat_400.wmv&pid=gen_video&vid=7786&cid=mlb&v=2

Felix Hernandez really throws the heat, as a Kansas City Royals hitter learns the hard way.

Number 6: So, You're New To The Mariners

"You might hear train noises, but don't worry, that's just Earl!"

http://seattle.mariners.mlb.com/media/player/mp_tpl_3_1.jsp?w=/2008/open/teams08/sea/video/031108_sea_slide_show_400.wmv&pid=gen_video&vid=7786&cid=mlb&v=2

Raul Ibanez introduces newcomers Carlos Silva and Erik Bedard to the Mariners using a slideshow.

Number 5

Ichiro wins games for the Mariners, and suits for himself, when the Ms introduce a new contest.

Number 4

J.J. Putz shows Ray a new pitcher with a devastating, accurate, fastball. Who could it be?

http://seattle.mariners.mlb.com/media/player/mp_tpl_3_1.jsp?w=/2007/open/teams07/sea/video/031307_sea_the_zone_400.wmv&pid=gen_video&vid=7786&cid=mlb&v=2

Number 3

Display_image

"And another strikeout for Felix!"

http://seattle.mariners.mlb.com/media/player/mp_tpl_3_1.jsp?w=2006/open/teams06/sea/video/add_kollectors.wmv&pid=gen_video&cid=sea&v=2

Seattleites got creative when finding "Ks" for all the strikeouts Felix Hernandez racks up.

Number 2: The Epidemic

Display_image

Ichiro's stance starts spreading throughout Seattle. From the barbershop to the car wash, everybody is getting into the Ichiro spirit.

http://seattle.mariners.mlb.com/media/player/mp_tpl_3_1.jsp?w=2006/open/teams06/sea/video/add_epidemic.wmv&pid=gen_video&cid=sea&v=2

And Number 1: Clap On, (clap, clap,) Clap Off, (clap, clap!)

Display_image

To make night practices easier, Edgar and his buddies install "Clappers" in the stadium's lights, but it comes at a price...

http://seattle.mariners.mlb.com/media/player/mp_tpl_3_1.jsp?w=2004/open/teams04/sea/video/edgar_clapper_350.wmv&pid=gen_video&cid=sea&v=2
