Ian is live from Chambers Bay for a very great reason.  Jake Dickert is on his way to Wake Forest and Ian is both mad and disappointed at the same time. While we know college football is a transient business, we were led to believe Dickert was cut from a different cloth, especially considering what we've heard from him throughout this season. Ian sees this as wrong on a lot of levels. Brandon Funston, The Athletic joins us for a check in on the fantasy football playoffs!

The Seahawks are weathering the storm - literally - this week, but despite that, Ian reflects on how important the win over the 49ers was for the team. Every win matters in the NFL.   Stewart Mandel, The Athletic joins Ian to give a realistic view of the College Football Playoff as we approach the end of the season. Sounds like the Big12 is out for a second bid with the BYU loss. How much does the Julian Lewis commitment tell us about Deion Sanders' longevity at Colorado?

Stewart Mandel, The Athletic CFB Insider joins Ian to discuss the news that John Mateer has seven-figure offers in the NIL, despite not being in the transfer portal. Is the transfer portal leveling the playing field within the power four or across the landscape? Plus the latest on the CFP rankings, who can rise and who will fall? Ian reacts to what Stewart had to say regarding the CFP. Corbin Smith, Seahawks Maven and Locked on Seahawks joins Ian to take a look ahead at the Seahawks game this weekend against the Niners. Corbin has a great update on Abe Lucas, tells us what he thinks about the offensive line right now and finally, discusses the linebacking change we saw earlier this week. Is Geno Smith the problem in Seattle? There ae other issues facing the Seahawks. However, next year's draft class is not one where we expect to find the future at quarterback. Bottom line is, they have very good pieces in place, so we're not looking at a total rebuild in the near future. Brandon Funston, The Athletic Fantasy Expert kicks off the unofficial start of the weekend. He answers all of our fantasy questions - as well as yours.

College athletics are a mess and the fault is on the NCAA. Coaches' roles are changing in the world of the NIL and while we've been seeing it play out in college football this season, we're already hearing the major impacts this could and will have on NCAA basketball. Stewart Mandel, The Athletic joins us to react to the first CFP rankings, which he says weren't that surprising and almost a rehash of the AP Poll. He breaks down the top CFP teams from top to bottom - who will fall and who could rise? Also, what surprises might we see throughout the rest of the season? Stewart takes us through the major headlines around CFB right now. The Seahawks' season has had its ups and downs, but most lately downs. Florida is keeping Billy Napier and this matters locally because there were rumors Jedd Fisch would leave for that spot if it opens up. Corbin Smith, Seahawks Maven and Locked on Seahawks tells Ian the Seahawks are rightfully ranked at the bottom of the NFC West. Why are they regressing in some areas? Corbin gives us a full-blown ranking of Seattle's position groups and who's to blame where things are going wrong. He also says that this team is playing for a top 3 draft pick next year without Geno Smith. If the Seahawks continue to lose, should they commit to a potential *horrid word* rebuild? Jake Dickert spoke with Ian yesterday whether he and the team are hearing noise surrounding the college football playoff. Ian also pressed him on his future at Washington State and Coach hopes Ian isn't the kiss of death like he was last year. The Daily Power Play!  Brandon Funston, The Athletic kicks off the unofficial start of the weekend! He anwers all of the loyal listener fantasy football questions for this week. Listeners line up.

The Seahawks are under the Thursday Night Lights tonight, taking on the Niners and both teams are licking their wounds from last weekend. Ian gives a personnel update  for the game. Greg Cosell, NFL Films joins Ian for an in-depth preview of tonight's game. He tells us what he sees on tape, including exactly what he expects from both teams. How will they change their offense, if at all? And where does DK Metcalf stand right now?

Corbin Smith, Seahawks Maven and Locked on Seahawks joins Ian tp preview tonight's game as the Seahawks host the 49ers. What did we learn from Sunday about each team? Corbin takes a deep dive into the X's and O's. Corbin tells us what adjustments he thinks we'll see tonight. We have a sharp eye on who's active and who's not in tonight's game, and Ian's main focus is that the Seahawks absolutely need Julian Love. Ian doesn't have the same juice he usually does for this 'rivalry' game.The Daily Power Play! Bylsma isn't afraid to make line changes. Brandon Funston, The Athletic joins to get you ready for your fantasy football weekend. We take as many questions as possible from YOU. 

AJ Barner, Seahawks TE joins Ian to talk about his experience getting more involved in the offense over the past few games. As much as it was gratifying to score in Detroit, he has no plans to remain satisfied. He also tells us what a short week means on the body and the mentality for a player. He also previews what he sees happening in the Michigan vs. UW game this weekend.   Stewart Mandel, The Athletic joins Ian to break down what we saw in last weekend in college football, the new realignment of the Pac-12 and who we might see flirting with the newly revamped conference in the near future. Plus, a preview of the 'National Championship Rematch' this weekend between UW and Michigan.   Is the Michigan vs. UW game really a rematch?    Corbin Smith, Seahawks Maven and Locked on Seahawks joins us to talk about the positives we can take away from the first Seahawks loss of the season. Geno Smith is emerging better at this point in his career than we've ever seen from him. Plus, the lacking on the defensive side was most certainly due to those who were out with injury, but even with that, we saw some great strides. Is Ryan Grubb finally the guy knows how to use DK Metcalf?   AJ Hinch made some remarks yesterday after the Tigers took out the Astros and we harken back to whether the Mariners poor play was a catalyst for Detroit's resurgence in the latter part of the season.   The Daily Power Play!   Brandon Funston, The Athletic gives us the unofficial start to the weekend as we prepare for YOUR fantasy performance. Funston graciously answers all the questions you have.

Stewart Mandel, The Athletic joins us to discuss the latest issues facing college football, including the fallout we're seeing at UNLV. Changes are about in the NCAA when it comes to the NIL. What should the Pac-12 have done differently with the Mountain West?   We just learned that the Mariners are officially out of postseason contention and Ian tells you how he really feels.   Softy jumps on to be the angry person, because Ian is exhausted. The house was burning down, and ownership was fine to stand by and watch. We have a proper meltdown.   Corbin Smith, Seahawks Maven and Locked on Seahawks gets us ready for Monday Night Football against the Lions. What's the latest behind the scenes and what should the Seahawks prepare for on the road? We find out.   What we are seeing with the Mariners is a tradition unlike any other. We hear from the fans, who are quite fuming.   Listener reaction has been pouring in about the Mariners, so we leave the airwaves to the fans for a bit.   Brandon Funston, The Athletic Fantasy Expert begins the unofficial start of the weekend. It's week 4 - what's going on in your fantasy league? Funston tells you what you need to know.

The Mariners had to watch the Yankees celebrate a playoff berth on their field in another situation where an opportunity was squandered. Criticizing a player for a boneheaded play doesn't mean we don't like him. Players can do that in Seattle because there's a total lack of accountability.  Stewart Mandel, The Athletic gives his instant reaction to the Cougs win in the Apple Cup and tells us why they're not ranked right now. Could the Pac-12 expand even more? Stewart tells us what Memphis and Tulane would consider if they're a target.  Julio's gaffe was an example of a failure to focus, but there are way more important problems with this organization than what we saw last night.  Corbin Smith, Seahawks Maven and Locked on Seahawks joins to breakdown exactly what happened in the Seahawks game and where he seems room for growth. Could Kenny McIntosh have some success in the run game last weekend? Corbin gives us some thoughts on who's getting healthier, and he's got a positive feeling about Abe Lucas once we're past game 4.  The future of sports streaming is more viable than Ian previously thought and he's changing his tune on ways to consume it. However, it can't be only streaming in the future, in order to grow your conference.  The Daily Power Play! Al Kinisky joins Ian to give some insight on Kraken training camp as we ramp up toward preseason starting on Sunday.  Brandon Funston, The Athletic kicks off the unofficial start to the weekend! It's time for your fantasy football tuneup and Funston tells YOU what your roster entails in week 3.

Jake Dickert, Washington State Head Football Coach says the realignment decision is a step in the right direction when it comes to the Pac-12, but he's more focused on the game at hand - the Apple Cup. He discusses the physicality he's proud of in his defenses and the challenges his team will face against Washington on Saturday. The Cougs have a lot of weapons that are only getting better. Coach also discusses the importance of supporting the program.   Stewart Mandel, The Athletic breaks down exactly what's happening with the Pac-12 as they incorporate four Mountain West schools to keep the conference alive.    We are scoreboard watching and the Astros are keeping things interesting.   Corbin Smith, Seahawks Maven tells us his thoughts about the Seahawks heading from week one into a road game against the Patriots. What are the trends we're seeing across the league over one week? The Seahawks gave us a nailbiter as they have in the past, so how much more of that can we expect this season under Mike Macdonald.   1:30 - The Pac-12 incorporating Mountain West teams isn't the same as what happened to the conference when it got dismantled.   The Daily Power Play!   Brandon Funston, The Athletic kicks off the unofficial start to the weekend! Listeners get their fantasy questions in as we all try to figure out our rosters after week 1.

Do you think the Mariners are actually still in it? Ian, Anders and Jess give their takes - and it's not positive.   Danny O'Neil, The Dang Apostrophe! Danny tells us some interesting stories about working for a Paul Allen owned company back in the day, the best Seattle sports ownership and what we're seeing now with the Mariners. Although he'll still watch the games, he firmly does not believe the Mariners are 'still in it'. When it comes to the Seahawks, he definitely believes they should make the playoffs.   We recap last night's KJR Fantasy Football Draft.   Corbin Smith, Locked on Seahawks joins us as we embark on the Seahawks season to give us a final preview of what to expect on Sunday.   We let you know how Fact or Fiction is going, and what you need to know. Plus, yesterday we visited with Mike Sanford who coached against Mike Macdonald, and he told Ian why he has a man-crush on the Seahawks new head coach. Are there more questions on the offense or the defense?   The Daily Power Play! Kraken youth are getting disrespected this preseason.   Brandon Funston, The Athletic kicks off the unofficial start to the weekend! We line up the phone lines and take all the questions we can as you prepare your lineup before the NFL kicks off tonight.

Bogman and Brandon Funston talk final draft prep

New @InThisLeaguePod Fantasy Football Podcast with @BogmanSports & @IsItTheWelsh

The Mariners continue to be exactly what they've always been. It's exciting being on the precipice of college football - but where will you watch it this weekend?  Stewart Mandel, The Athletic breaks down what we saw in week zero in college football and what to expect this weekend. He runs us through the various ups and downs we've seen throughout conference realignment. Plus, how different will viewing be for the college football television audience?  Anders and Jess try to convince Ian to cut the cord.  Corbin Smith, Locked on Seahawks gives his first blush reaction to the Seahawks' final roster and their offense has some solid weapons. He is most impressed by Laviska Shenault this preseason. On the defensive side of the ball, there weren't a ton of surprises. The biggest news items are Uchenna Nwosu not being on injured reserve and Abe Lucas being out for the first four games. The NFC West is going to be rough this year, but the improved defense should push them into the playoffs.  The Mariners did add this offseason, but they also deleted due to financial issues. Joe Sheehan had some pointed words about the financial situations.  The Daily Power Play! Ian has some Kraken news that television viewers will want to hear.  Brandon Funston, The Athletic kicks off the unofficial start to the weekend! We're approaching fantasy draft deadlines and Brandon gives his biggest surprises from the NFL cutdowns and what it could mean for your roster. Finally, listeners have the opportunity to ask him anything and everything.

EMERGENCY MOLLYWHOP! Chris Crawford and Nathan Bishop give their initial reactions to the Mariners' reported firing of Scott Servais. Crawford thinks they're replacing him with Dan Wilson to do everything they can to keep people coming to the ballpark, while failing. Nathan agrees and doesn't know how we can even fairly evaluate Servais in the circumstances in which he's operated. Chris and Nathan remain with us to react to Dan Wilson taking over for the Mariners, and Chris is surprised they didn't go with Manny Acta or Kristopher Negron. This just points to keeping butts in seats. Nathan is watching other moves being made, as in Edgar Martinez joining the staff. These moves are clearly being made over Jerry Dipoto's head. What makes a good manager? Scott Servais was put in an impossible position, in more than one way. Chris and Nathan continue the hour MollyWhop marathon to tell us what kind of team Dan Wilson is inheriting right now. Plus, how safe is Jerry's job right now? Corbin Smith, Locked on Seahawks gives his first reaction to the Seahawks trading cornerback Michael Jackson to the Panthers for linebacker Michael Barrett. The depth at linebacker is a good add, while the Seahawks had an embarrassment of riches in the defensive backfield, especially at corner. Chuck Powell joins Ian in studio, after having predicted the Servais firing if the Dodgers series went the way it did this week. Neither of the guys want anyone to lose a job, but this move just makes sense. How much blame should be put on Servais or Dipoto for the careers that came to Seattle to die? Chuck gives Jerry Dipoto a lot of credit for what he's done here - if you want him out, be careful what you wish for. An adequate offense should be enough for this team to be a perennial postseason contender. We begin the cavalcade of fans weighing in on the Mariners. Brandon Funston, The Athletic kicks off the unofficial start to the weekend. Today, we talk quarterbacks as you prepare for your fantasy draft. Listeners let loose on the firing of Scott Servais, and boy do we have a lot.

The Trail Blazers are leaving ROOT Sports, and Ian sees a demise of sports consumption for the fan.  Corbin Smith, Locked on Seahawks joins us with the latest roster observations on the Seahawks. He has a new comparison for Byron Murphy and it's not one you've heard before. He's still surprised he dropped out of the top ten in the draft and marvels at how well it worked to John Schneider's benefit. Corbin takes us through the prospective depth chart. Next week is a big one for Abe Lucas.  The Mariners just got swept by the Tigers and fall three games behind the Astros in the AL West. Things are not looking good.  Chris Crawford, My Oh Why and Nathan Bishop of Dome and Bedlam join us and are simply exhausted by the ineptitude they've seen through this series - but also over the last nine years. They give us quite an honest review of the most recent performances. A sweep is a must for them heading into Pittsburgh.   We hear from Scott Servais following the crapfest we saw in Detroit.   We lighten things up with some fun audio from George Kittle, who takes some shots at the collective media. Brandon Funston, The Athletic Fantasy Guru joins us to kick off the unofficial start of the weekend! Today we run down the wide receiving group as you get ready to draft your roster!

Ian is sick of people blaming DK Metcalf for training camp fights, especially because we had an unobstructed view of what happened. DK tried to walk away from Tre Brown several times during the scrap yesterday.   Mike Morris, Seahawks DE sits down to give us a realistic view of the skirmishes we saw yesterday and what the message was from Mike Macdonald. The new head coach preaches violence in the game, but also brings the team together in brotherhood. Morris says it's not a big deal - it's football.   Are DK Metcalf's penalties an issue for the Seahawks? Ian gives you stats that prove to him that they're not, but what do the fans think?   Corbin Smith, Locked on Seahawks joins us as we see a lighter practice taking place out here in training camp day number 14. The skirmishes we saw yesterday aren't anything new when it comes to football. Corbin welcomes it, as the Seahawks have been missing it in recent years. Corbin gives us his players to keep an eye on as we enter preseason.   It's about time to talk about the baseball game last night, as much as we might not want to right now.   The Seahawks are having a light practice right in front of us, which is a far cry from the physical, padded practice we saw yesterday.   Brandon Funston, The Athletic kicks off the unofficial start to the weekend! He opens up the fantasy season with his top picks, takes questions from listeners and discusses the best running backs available right now.

PJ Walker, Seahawks QB sits down with Ian and discusses his experience in Seattle so far, his family and the process they've gone through in coming out here with a new baby. He breaks down the Seahawks QB room, the wide receiving group and tells us why DK Metcalf is as good as he is.  The Blue Angels just never get old, no matter how many times we see them. Mitch Garver has not been good this year, but the fan feedback is clearly weighing on him. We hear what he had to say after the game last night. People hide behind screens to say vile things, and while absolutely not condoning it, Ian's advice is to look away. The fans are going to get behind him now.  Corbin Smith, Locked on Seahawks tells Ian what he could see from yesterday's unique walkthrough. He looks at fringe guys by position groups, as well as depth in the defensive backfield. Bold declaration: Corbin thinks the wide receiver room is done and Dee Eskridge is the one on the outside looking in.  We get back to Mitch Garver's comments from last night, where he says he won't let his play on the field dictate who he is as a person. While his offense is unacceptable, he's a more a more than adequate backup catcher. Regardless of his play, he doesn't deserve the vitriol he's seen.  Geno Smith is out of practice again today. The Canadian men's and women's ice hockey teams got docked 6 points for flying a drone over their opponents' practices. When coaches and administrators make mistakes, it's the players that end up paying the price.  Brandon Funston, The Athletic joins to launch the unofficial start to the weekend! He tells us what the new super flex rule does to leagues and why it makes quarterbacks the most important players. Plus, what does he look for in a keeper?
