I can see where Jr.'s coming from. Professionally speaking his stay in Cincinnati has been a bad trip. He's been constantly injured. The team has fallen into its worst dive in 50 years. He's had revolving door managers and GMs. Everybody's frustrated and probably no one more than Ken Griffey Jr.

All things considered it sounds like he's in a situation a lot of folks are in. I imagine most of us would rather have a happy home life and view a well-paid job as a job rather than love our jobs and struggle on the homefront. Winning would probably cure some of that for him.

But Jr.'s been around for almost exclusively bad times and as I'm sure we can all attest, that sort of thing can weigh on you.
