Leonard Williams, Seahawks DE sits down with Ian and discusses why he chose to resign with the Seahawks, what he expects from Mike Macdonald and relives last year's game against the Jets. He also delves into the leadership in the lockerroom and the time it takes to develop in the trenches coming from college into the NFL, especially when it comes to expectations for Byron Murphy. Hugh Millen joins Ian to discuss the difference in the Seahawks this year as compared to last, as well as what he saw in the very first day of training camp. Hugh remains with Ian to look at Byron Murphy's upcoming season and where we might see him grow in his second year. Bill Simmons and Zach Lowe discussed the latest developments from the NBA owners meetings in regard to expansion. They think due to revenue sharing, it almost might be more likely to see a relocation - with all eyes on New Orleans. Eno Sarris, The Athletic joins Ian for some MLB talk and begins sharing his impressions of Ichiro as he heads to the Hall of Fame. Ichiro had such a unique approach at the plate and although he's a different, he sees the same style in Shohei Ohtani. He breaks down the series loss to the Brewers and the poor offensive showing. We get back to the NBA expansion conversation and why relocation might look more likely for Seattle, and that would take a while as well. Ian just keeps seeing the can kicked down the road. Corbin Smith, Emerald City Spectrum is most excited to talk about Elijah Arroyo right now and tells you why. He breaks down the strengths in Sam Darnold's game and why Klint Kubiak could work for him. Charles Cross and Abe Lucas look great, but we'll have to see more once they're in pads.
