Podcast appearances and mentions of Jerry Dipoto

After their narrow win over the Colts, the Seahawks need their offense to bounce back as they play for the division against the LA Rams. Stacy and Curtis break down what we need to see from the Seahawks offense on Thursday. // Headline Rewrites: The Steelers put an end to the Dolphins season with a 28-15 victory on Monday Night Football. Mike Macdonald says it’s possible Charles Cross plays on Thursday night. The Rams have not ruled out Davante Adams for Thursday night and will be given every chance to play right up to game time. // The Mariners need to add a middle infielder soon. Stacy and Curtis talk about Jerry Dipoto’s comments about getting one over a week ago. Jorge Polanco is no longer an option, where do the M’s pivot? // We head to the station for Hype Train! 

RUNDOWN   Mitch opens Episode 362 with Danny O'Neil subbing in for an injured Hotshot Scott, then immediately pivots into Seahawks stress-testing: "a win is a win" vs. real offensive problems. Mitch and Danny joke about a bizarre LA Bowl unsportsmanlike call, then pivot to the Michigan vacancy and what it could mean for Jed Fisch (with Mitch arguing DeBoer's statement reads like a true "not leaving" while Fisch's sounds like a dodge). The segment then becomes a Seahawks therapy session: Mitch hates how they "punted the first half away," can't believe they needed six field goals to beat a limited Colts team, and points to first-down passing success as proof the staff has to help Sam Darnold with smarter sequencing. Mitch, Brady Henderson, and Jacson Bevens agree the Seahawks' 18–16 win over the Colts was one of the least satisfying victories imaginable, despite holding Indianapolis to just 215 total yards and improving to 11–3 . The conversation centers on chronic first-half offensive failures, Sam Darnold's uneven play being compounded by penalties and play-calling, and a defense that continues to carry the team. Neuheisel explains how his Washington State candidacy stalled after an initial Zoom interview with a search committee, never reaching the school president despite strong booster support, and reflects candidly on the likelihood he won't get another head-coaching opportunity. The conversation pivots to the chaos surrounding Michigan's vacancy, with Neuheisel analyzing why Jed Fisch's Harbaugh ties could complicate his candidacy and why DeBoer, Dillingham, or even NFL names may factor in. A visit from the KJArntz with Jason Puckett, who gleefully roasts him for failing to ask Rick Neuheisel about the Washington State job and then dives headfirst into college football chaos, speculating on ripple effects from Michigan's vacancy and Lane Kiffin's unique ability to torch multiple fanbases at once. The conversation veers into darkly comic sports misfortune, including Indiana losing a star defender during postgame celebrations, before shifting to hoops, where Puck raves about witnessing generational high school and college basketball talent up close.   GUESTS   Daniel Timothy O'Neil | The Dang Apostrophe Brady Henderson | Seahawks Insider, ESPN Jacson Bevens | Writer, Cigar Thoughts Rick Neuheisel | CBS College Football Analyst, Former Head Coach & Rose Bowl Champion Jason Puckett | Host, The Daily Puck Drop; Co-host of KJArntz   TABLE OF CONTENTS   0:00 | Hotshot Scott late scratch, Danny O'Neill gets the spot start—plus Seahawks angst, birthday trivia, and a quick detour into the origins of MLB free agency. 13:45 | BEAT THE BOYS - Register at MitchUnfiltered.com 18:13 | LA Bowl silliness to Michigan coaching rumors—then Mitch unloads on an "unsatisfying" Seahawks win and why the Rams line makes no sense. 39:38 | GUEST: Seahawks No-Table; Defense dominates, offense sputters: Seahawks escape Colts but spark concern ahead of Rams showdown. 59:44 | GUEST: Rick Neuheisel; Rick Neuheisel breaks down his Washington State interview, the Michigan mess, and playoff matchups across college football. 1:26:55 | GUEST: Puck; Puck unloads on Mitch's Neuheisel miss, spins Michigan chaos scenarios, and marvels at elite hoops talent. 1:45:42 | Other Stuff Segment: Jorge Polanco leaving the Mariners for the Mets, Jerry Dipoto and Mariners payroll philosophy, Mariners infield offensive concerns, Sharon Moore firing at Michigan, Adam Schefter's comments defending Sharon Moore, tone-deaf media responses to misconduct allegations, consequences vs adversity framing, Jed Fish fit at Michigan, potential Jed Fish departure from Washington, Huskies fan reaction to coaching turnover, Quentin Jammer admitting to playing NFL games drunk, substance abuse and accountability in pro sports, Cam Newton reacting to Colts signing Philip Rivers, quarterback entitlement and ego, Philip Rivers–Shane Steichen relationship, Ryan Seacrest football stadium naming, Seacrest's alleged high school football toughness, celebrity philanthropy credibility, Kyle Whittingham stepping down at Utah, underrated college football coaches, age and coaching viability, Milana Vayntrub selling photos for wildfire relief, OnlyFans-style philanthropy, Oregon nude calendar fundraiser, discomfort vs charity ethics

I explain why I've come around on it since it and like it for both sides, and I go over what Ferrer brings to the table for the Mariners future.

Sideline reporter Laura Rutledge had an awkward interaction with Justin Herbert when she tried to get some postgame comments. // Bump & Stacy react to the latest news from Jerry Dipoto as he is at the MLB Winter Meetings. 

We may have some Fishues, but it's important to take a realistic look at how this season and the first two under Jedd Fisch have gone. The boxes are getting checked as we expected, but our expectations aren't being exceeded yet. :30- The Winter meetings start Sunday and while there's not all the activity there used to be, we could see some trades- could there be a blockbuster in the works? :45- Nick Emmanwori is something special and Seahawks Coach Mike MacDonald is clearly having fun trying new things with the rookie.

With visits from Jerry Dipoto, Gregg Bell, Cam Cleeland and more, we've grabbed the best moments of Wednesday's show!

It's official, Josh Naylor and the Mariners inked a 5-year deal and we are pumped. It was a move that needed to happen for more than 1 reason and it's not very often that we get to celebrate big free-agent signing as Mariners fans. :30- It seems like people are suddenly panicking (over-reacting) about Sam Darnold after a bad game in LA on Sunday and yes, it was a bad game, but how worried are we that the Seahawks have the right guy for the job? - In Atlanta, they may have lost Michael Penix Jr for the season, can Cousins step up and how concerned should Falcons fans be about another knee injury? - It's a mess in Las Vegas, how panicked should they be about Geno Smith and Pete Carroll? :45- The College Football Playoff rankings get a refresh tonight, so how will things play out? Will Notre Dame keep climbing? Can Oklahoma jump them? How far will Alabama fall? See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

It's humpday and time to look ahead to Sunday's Seahawks' game against the Titans. Is this a classic trap or let-down game for the Hawks, facing the 1-9 Titans? The Titans have played quite a few teams very close and Mike MacDonald's Seahawks' can not afford to lose this. :30- Josh Naylor's extension with the Mariners was announced yesterdays and if you didn't love Naylor before, you should definitely love him now! :45- The College football rankings are out and everyone is talking about Alabama and Notre Dame. How did things shake up in week 3? See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The Seahawks fall to the Rams in LA, but somehow, we aren't too disappointed. Sam Darnold threw 4 interceptions, but the Hawks still had a chance to win the game in the last seconds, so there were a lot of positives to take away from the loss. :30- Grab your Cold Turkey Sandwiches, it's time to check the board of scores! There were some crazy games in the NFL in week 11. :45- Coach Bucky is here and we only have one topic in mind this morning: At some point today, the Mariners and Josh Naylor should have a finalized agreement to keep him in Seattle for 5 more years, how is Coach Bucky feeling about it?

The Blue Jays rallied to take Game 4 of the World Series and tie things up, just a day after losing to the Dodgers in 18-innings. Were the Dodger feeling the effects of the 18-innings more? If anybody had an excuse to be a little less than perfect, it was Shohei, pitching after being on base 9 times the day before. It seemed like the Dodgers were built to take this series in 4 or 5 games, but now we will have a game 6 and head back to Toronto. With the current state of Mariners hangover/depression, are we able to look at this season and recognize that this team doesn't suck and hasn't sucked? These aren't the “same ol' Mariners.” :30- College football is once again a little out-of-control and this time, it's all about the coaches as firings and buyouts are costing a lot of money. Is this sustainable? We talked to Rick Neuheisel about it! :45- The Kraken managed an exciting come-from-behind point last night after falling into a 3-0 hole against the Canadiens. The 3rd period was all they needed to erase the deficit and send the game to OT. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Manage Angerment… yes, you read that correctly. Is it out of the realm of possibility to think that Dan Wilson is not back next year? There's some strange things happening in MLB managing- the Giants hired a college coach, the Angels hired Kurt Suzuki on a one-year deal and Scott Servais is being talked about for several open spots. Does Dan need a different bench coach to help him in year 2? :30- MIKE SANDO (The Athletic) joins us with the latest from the NFL and his thoughts on the Seahawks heading into the bye week. :45- We close out the show with one last thing! See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Headlines and 12th Man news with GREGG BELL (Tacoma News Tribune) It's a bye week for the Seahawks, but there's still a lot to get done. How will the Seahawks approach the week off and what will they use the time to focus on? :30- If we go back to Game 7… I know, it hurts… we have to take a look at why JP Crawford couldn't get to that ball? Even Hugh talked about it yesterday. Has JP's defense become a problem for the Mariners? :35- Ashley's been terrible with her FoF picks lately, can she get back on the winning track? :45- Let's get Reckless at Breakfast!

A day later… can we put our emotions and thoughts on the Mariners season into words?

See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The Mariners season comes to an abrupt ending after last night's Game 7 loss. There are going to be plenty of questions and conversations surrounding the Mariners pitching decisions when Springer came up to bat and those will probably haunt us for awhile. Woo, Munoz, Bazardo or someone else, we will always wonder “what if” a different decision had been made, what could have been? Leo Rivas was given a golden opportunity and he wasn't able to cash in during this series, in fact, the entire bottom of the order was a hole. :30- RYON HEALY joins the show for one final time this postseason as we get his thoughts on pitching decisions, at-bats and more from Game 7 of the ALCS. :45- It may be too early to hear it, but the Mariners future is bright and hopefully this offseason continues to prove that.

Tim Kurkjian and Buster discuss the Cal Raleigh as the main attraction during the Little League Classic in Williamsport, the Padres catching the Dodgers in the NL West, the Mariners catching the Astros in the AL West, the Brewers lighting up Paul Skenes, and how Skenes should handle his future on a bad team. Then, Dave Dombrowski talks about his conversations with the Twins when acquiring Jhoan Duran at the trade deadline, if he's ever fearful when executing a trade and the importance of relationships in his position. Later, Hembo on the Yankees' schedule advantage as they try to stay in the playoff race, the Mets' pitching woes, three reasons why Milwaukee is the best team in baseball, Jerry Dipoto building the best lineup in Seattle since 2001, and the Rockies are having a pernicious effect on the playoff picture.
