True, but the Seattle guys aren't looking at careers here, they're looking and judging by a two year sample size.  What they see is:
Felix becoming an ace while averaging 6.76 innings per start (and 7.0 this past year)
Bedard rolling his eyes at their questions while averaging 5.5 innings per start and Adam Jones is an All Star and the Mariners were terrible in 2008.
To them, the formula is "made me feel awkward + he's not meeting the high expectations + unrevised first impressions that he is a baby and a wuss + big time losing season + other guys in trade becoming stars + scapegoats and negative reports are easier to write/give = Bedard's a jerk."
Again, I'm just being a Devil's advocate here.   I see why some feel the way they do, but strongly disagree.  In real life, I'm with you fellers.  I actually enjoy his interviews.  :)
