It just continues, My Oh My!   Jim's wife Kathy crashes the party and Puck wonders why isn't she doing the podcast over Jim! Puck and Jim also dive into the Cougars home football schedule and TV partners and times announced, plus they discuss Bill Belichick's book tour and his psychotic young girlfriend, Tyrese Haliburton's dad running onto the court to confront Giannis Antetokounmpo and the Atlanta Falcons fining their defensive coordinator for his sons prank on Sheduer Sanders.  Rob Staton, SeahawksDraftblog.com, joins Puck to wrap up the NFL draft and loves what the Seahawks did over the course of three days.  They chat about Grey Zabel's impact, Jalen Milroe's role on the team, the athleticism of the class, and how every pick just made sense for Seattle.  Rob heaps a lot of praise at John Schneider and Mike Macdonald. Ryan Divish and Puck discussed the incredible start to the season for Jorge Polanco and the Mariners offense and try to make sense of what they have done.  The simple answer is that they don't have any answers for what is going on, but rather they are just sitting back and enjoying the wave of offense.  The injuries continue to mount for Seattle with now Dylan Moore and Luke Raley going to the IL.   How long will Logan Gilbert be out for and is George Kirby getting closer to coming back?   The bullpen needs help and help is on its way with Matt Brash.   What's going on with Bryce Miller?  It feels like Miller will eventually make a visit to the IL as well.  Lastly, Puck and Divish wrap up talking NWA wrestling and their love affair with Dusty Rhodes. Puck wraps up the show with, “Hey, What the Puck!?”  The Mariners offensive surge is awesome, but the starting pitching is starting to worry Puck. (3:28) -Puck and Jim (37:30) -Rob Staton, SeahawksDraftblog.com (1:02:45) -MLB Insider Ryan Divish (1:23:06) - “Hey, What the Puck!?” 

From Day 2 of the NFL Draft, we provide full coverage of the day's selections by the Seahawks. John Schneider and Mike Macdonald made a move up early in the draft to take safety Nick Emmanwori. The South Carolina standout was a player many had linked to the Seahawks with the 18th overall pick and there were rumblings about Seattle trying to trade back into the first round to get him. Instead they were able to move up and still get him early in round 2. With their other second rounder, they selected tight end Elijah Arroyo, a player that Clinton had been critical of leading up to the draft. Phil Lydick joins the show to provide his thought and analysis of the picks. Max Toscano of Remember the Tight Ends comes in to talk about the Seahawks selection of Elijah Arroyo and Adam celebrates the selection of Jalen Milroe and what it could mean for the future of the quarterback room in Seattle.
