I'd love to see where blizz said that too.
MM might be stronger than BM in very short crit burst output (< 10 sec fights), but anything sustained BM comes out way on top.
And especially after the pet buffs we've received during TBC, even as a raiding MM hunter I have no problems with keeping my pet alive on just about any boss fight in ssc/tk/mh/bt, BM hunters should have even less so.

My issue has been with the current 31 pt talents. BM gets this insanely powerful stacking+scaling group buff which works for *all* damage (spelldamage included). Surv gets a raid buff (expose weakness) which gets stronger the higher your AGI is, but is not stackable.
MM gets... TSA. which doesn't stack. and doesn't scale. and doesn't increase in any way. And when it comes to utility.. it is pretty lacking in group/raid utility, and to add to the insult, even Silencing Shot (the "glorious" 41 pt talent) doesn't work on raid bosses nor most caster trash in bt/sunwell. yay?
