The Seattle Seahawks' initial 53-man roster is set, and we went live to talk about the biggest surprises and areas where there is still some concern going into the season. The Seahawks kept a surprising number of offensive linemen. But in the past when we had a surprising lack of depth at guard, we are now to the point where guys seemingly beat the odds to make the team. The running back room may be a concern until Zach Charbonnet gets back, but that's mainly because we haven't seen much from the guys throughout the preseason (by design). A fan favorite from Hard Knocks made the initial 53, and John Schneider made a trade to help with cornerback depth. Other big news in the NFL today was the signing of Aaron Donald. But did anyone expect that he'd command $20 million? We compare the situation to the last time the Seahawks signed a future Hall of Famer who was seemingly content to stay retired. Plus a ton of great questions straight from the flock as we look ahead to a tailgate and the regular season opener against the Patriots.

What an idiot! Jim Duquette, MLB Network Radio reacts to Puck wishing the Mariners had actually tried to put a competitive lineup out in the series finale against the Phillies, plus, why Eugenio Suarez makes sense for Seattle after the Reds released the slugger, Bryce Miller lat injury, Dodgers ownership mess, sign stealing in MLB and why did the Astros clean house?

This week on the Kibbe and Friends Show, I have a new mission: save The Dukes of Hazzard! With Coyote vs. Acme finding new life after sitting on a shelf, could somebody do the same thing with the Dukes while John Schneider and Tom Wopat can still climb through the windows of a Charger? Bernie and Corndog naturally help turn my perfectly reasonable idea into something completely ridiculous. We also talk racing after Dallas returned to Jefferson Speedway, the reborn IROC series, and a fascinating—and somewhat sad—story from Jay Chandrasekhar about working with Burt Reynolds on the 2005 Dukes of Hazzard movie. Plus, our mysterious voicemail caller asks a surprisingly good question: with new 1969 Charger bodies coming to market, could the Charger eventually become the 427 Cobra of the muscle-car kit world? Then it's time for The Dukes of Hazzard, Season 2, Episode 4: “The Meeting.” The Chicago mob comes to Hazzard, Boss Hogg rents them the jail for $10,000, and what follows is basically Good Ol' Boys versus Goodfellas. It's pinstripe suits, limousines, cement galoshes, ridiculous disguises, Daisy distractions, mobsters under nets, and enough Looney Tunes logic to fill an entire episode. Most importantly, this episode features the final jump of Lee 3—one of the original three General Lees. Corndog gives us the history of this very early Charger and explains exactly what happens during the jump that finally kills it. I gave “The Meeting” 9 cement galoshes, Corndog gives it an 8, and Bernie lands at 8.5. It's a wonderfully ridiculous episode of the Dukes and a packed K&F Show to go with it! The post K&F Show #375: The Dukes Meet the Mob! “The Meeting” Dukes of Hazzard Review first appeared on The Muscle Car Place.

They also discuss the situation with Terrion Arnold and wonder if the Seahawks were caught off guard? The third DB position seems like a concern and could be even a bigger one if there is an injury. Lastly, the Seahawks seem excited about Jalen Milroe, but he doesn't seem excited. To watch and listen to the full podcast you must be a Puck's Posse member.

This week we lost a true member of the Dukes of Hazzard family. Ben Jones, forever known to millions of fans as Cooter Davenport, has passed away. In his memory, we're stepping away from our regular format to revisit something we're incredibly grateful to have in the Kibbe & Friends archives: our full 2019 conversation with Ben himself. We originally spoke with Ben ahead of the 40th anniversary of The Dukes of Hazzard, and he was everything you'd hope he would be. Funny, candid, thoughtful, opinionated, and incredibly generous with his time. He told us how he landed the role of Cooter, how the character evolved, what those early Georgia episodes were really like, his memories of John Schneider, Tom Wopat, Denver Pyle, Sorrell Booke and the rest of the cast, and even his tiny role in Smokey and the Bandit. We also talked cars, Cooter's tow trucks, the incredible stunt work, the departure and return of Bo and Luke, and the lasting phenomenon of the General Lee. More than anything, Ben understood what The Dukes of Hazzard meant to its fans. He and his wife Alma spent decades keeping that community together through Cooter's Place, DukesFest and the enormous fan gatherings that brought generations of Dukes fans together. Ben once told us that no matter what else he accomplished in life, he'd still be Cooter — and that was a very good thing. We couldn't agree more. Rest in peace, Ben Jones. Thanks for the memories, the stories, and for always keeping Hazzard County alive. The post K&F Show #374 – BONUS: Remembering Ben Jones – The Man Behind Cooter Davenport first appeared on The Muscle Car Place.

Hard Knocks dropped its Seattle Seahawks premiere and we watched it live so we can all react to it together. We break down the ring ceremony (a little bit buzzed John Schneider is a top moment along with Sam Darnold dropping his ring), and we get to see what Mike Macdonald's "secret sauce is connection" philosophy actually looks like on camera. Nick Emmanwori is already getting the standout-player treatment, so should we be concerned that he may not be ready in time for the start of the season? Plus training camp fights, the Devon Witherspoon contract "Soon-O-Meter," a Sam Darnold reality check, and Cooper Kupp looking like a future coach.

Blue Jays TV play-by-play voice Dan Shulman (0:43) looks at the team's trade deadline options, the potential last start for Kevin Gausman in Toronto, the change in his delivery on the mound, John Schneider's decision to move Ernie Clement in the third spot of the order, the clubhouse vibe through the down season and towards the deadline, and if the Tampa Bay Rays are one bat away towards becoming contenders. Then, host of Baseball Today and Dugout Discussions Chris Rose (27:55) joins Jeff Blair and Kevin Barker to chat about what could be behind the Boston Red Sox's recent surge, the most disappointing teams across the league and where the Jays rank, if it's fair to put the losing season on Vlad Jr., and if a looming work stoppage affects the deadline approach.

Todd Stottlemyre (3:08), two-time World Series champion pitcher with the Blue Jays, reflects on the life and career of his former teammate Duane Ward, his presence in the clubhouse and on the mound, the pitcher's game-day routines, and the importance of the 1991 season and its impact on the following back-to-back World Series wins. Then, Jeff Blair and Kevin Barker listen to John Schneider's pre-game media availability ahead of their series against the Tampa Bay Rays before bringing on Rays' TV analyst and former pitcher Brian Anderson (30:00) to look at how the team can hold the top spot of the AL East with the surging Boston Red Sox, Bryan Baker's breakout year as their closer, Nick Martinez's changeup vs. sinker usage, and trade deadline targets.

Then, ESPN's and host of 'Sources Tell,' Jeff Passan joins the guys (27:05) to chat about the new format for the Home Run Derby, if U.S. politicians would involve themselves with ending of a potential work stoppage in the MLB, the trade market for Francisco Lindor, how aggressive Toronto could be at the deadline, and why the league is restricting the use of iPads in the dugouts.

Griffin Warner talks sports betting for Tuesday. Griffin Warner delivers a leaner but sharp episode of What I Bet built around the only two events worth betting on this Tuesday, the World Cup semifinal between Spain and France at AT&T Stadium in Arlington and the Major League Baseball All Star Game at Citizens Bank Park in Philadelphia. Griffin opens at 0:32 by setting the stage for Spain and France, two nations that entered the tournament as co favorites at 5 to 1 odds as of July 3rd but have since diverged, with France now installed as the clear favorite needing a win in regulation to cover the spread. At 1:17 Griffin lays out his case for Spain, arguing that their possession based style works identically whether they are favored or underdogs, a trait he considers rare in knockout soccer, and noting the team is getting healthier at the right time. At 1:33 he acknowledges France's individual talent, led by Kylian Mbappe and Ousmane Dembele, both of whom scored from outside the box in a 2 to 0 quarterfinal win over Morocco discussed at 2:03, while questioning whether longtime manager Didier Deschamps offers much beyond simply fielding the more talented roster. By 2:18 Griffin lands on his headline soccer pick, backing Spain as a quarter goal underdog and urging listeners to grab the number immediately before it shifts, explaining that the quarter goal split between a pick em portion and a plus one half portion protects bettors with a partial cash return if the match extends into extra time, which he expects given Spain's discipline defending against counterattacks. At 2:48 he shares his lean on the two and a half goal total, expecting the public to favor the over given the star power on both rosters while he sees a low scoring, controlled match shaping up instead, landing at 3:19 on a combined recommendation of Spain under the total and Spain to advance outright near plus 130 depending on the sportsbook. The show pivots to baseball at 3:49, with Griffin outlining the All Star Game lines, a National League team favored at minus 128 against the American League at plus 116, and a total of eight runs priced at minus 104 to the under and minus 116 to the over. At 4:20 he explains his general approach to exhibition baseball, trusting that the sport's best pitchers will suppress even the hottest first half hitters, despite acknowledging Philadelphia's shorter outfield dimensions raise the risk profile for an under play. At 4:50 Griffin spends real time on the Toronto Blue Jays' dominant presence in All Star voting following last season's seven game World Series run, highlighting Vladimir Guerrero Jr.'s selection as the American League's starting first baseman despite a career worst first half that included stretches of just five home runs, and wondering aloud whether a taxing offseason program contributed to the decline. At 5:05 he notes Blue Jays manager John Schneider is running the American League dugout, tying the assignment to Toronto's pennant winning season, and projects a National League win that should mean fewer total at bats and a lower final score. After a quick promotional break at 5:35 pointing listeners toward pregame dot com and the CUP15 discount code for 15 dollars off any package, including Griffin's World Cup All Access pass covering the tournament's final four match days for 60 dollars instead of 75, Griffin previews an upcoming return to full scale baseball coverage once the World Cup wraps this Sunday and marks the milestone of six years and 64 episodes of Pregame Network podcasting. He closes at 6:51 with his top play of the night, the under eight runs total in the All Star Game, built on the theory that elite pitching wins out over hot hitting even in a hitter friendly ballpark, and offers the under first five innings at 7:07 as a higher variance alternative for bettors wanting extra action, reasoning that without extra innings or the Manfred Man rule extending the game the first five inning number offers a cleaner read on true scoring pace. Griffin signs off previewing Tuesday's World Cup semifinal as the centerpiece of the show's next episode and thanking listeners for their continued support of What I Bet and the wider Straight Outta Vegas AM lineup on the Pregame Network.
