RUNDOWN   Music history in honor of Tommy Mottola's July 14 birthday—Mitch details how Mottola signed Hall & Oates and running through each of their six No. 1 hits. The “audio clip of the week” spotlights former Cubs manager Lee Elia's legendary profanity-laden tirade at Wrigley Field after a 5–14 start in 1983. Mitch and Hotshot celebrate Seattle's sweep of first-place Detroit and reviewing the Mariners' 51–45 first-half record, good enough for a wild-card spot if the season ended today. Mitch explains why he's optimistic—his rotation is poised to string together quality starts, and an offense buoyed by hot streaks from Randy Arozarena, strong on-base work from JP Crawford, and newfound production from lower-order hitters means the club doesn't need Cal Raleigh to carry the load alone. Mariners bounce back from a blown five-run lead and near no-hitter loss in New York to sweep the AL's best Tigers, cementing a wild-card spot at the All-Star break. Mariners No-Table (Brady Farkas) unpack the unexpected selection of LSU lefty Cade Anderson (saved under slot, with a high floor) as a near-MLB-ready arm, dissect Julio Rodríguez's decision to skip the ASG before homering in each Detroit game, and express outrage that Gino Suárez (31 HRs) wasn't invited to the Home Run Derby. Mitch and Puck chat KJRn'ts Chapter 8 by commiserating over their sudden need for reading glasses and sharing a wild family dare in which Mitch finally ate an entire bowl of mushrooms after his son aced the SAT. They then catch up on life—Jason's youth baseball woes, Mitch's freshman at Arizona—and take playful shots at Jim Moore's “top sports radio hosts” rankings. In this throwback to Ep. 197 (July 5, 2022), Mitch sits down with Rhonda Smith Banchero to revisit her own collegiate battles—most memorably guarding Cheryl Swoopes—and to explore how her “tough-love” coaching shaped Paolo's rise to the No. 1 NBA draft pick. Rhonda shares the moment she bowed out of one-on-one after seventh grade, her deliberate accountability style at home, and the family's bittersweet pride as Paolo chose Duke over UW. Now that he's secured a record-setting $239 million extension, her insights on nurturing a champion feel more poignant than ever. From the news that Michael Jordan's Highland Park estate is now an Airbnb (no parties allowed) to celebrity-boxing matchups, LeBron's Beverly Hills compound, Wimbledon winners, and even the exit of Pearl Jam's longtime drummer Matt Cameron, Mitch and Hotshot pack a whirlwind of sports and pop-culture headlines into one rapid-fire segment.   GUESTS   Brady Farkas | Host, Refuse to Lose Podcast (Mariners on SI) Jason Puckett | Sports Broadcaster & Co-Host of the Refuse to Lose Podcast Rhonda Smith Banchero | UW Women's Basketball Legend & Mother of Paolo Banchero   TABLE OF CONTENTS   0:00 | Celebrating Tommy Mottola's Birthday by Tracing His Early Role in Launching Hall & Oates and Featuring Lee Elia's Infamous Cubs Rant 23:58 | Mariners Enter All-Star Break Thick in the Wild Card Hunt on the Back of Emerging Rotation and Depth-Built Offense 42:07 | GUEST: Mariners No-Table, Brady Farkas, Resilient Road Swing, College Ace Picked at No. 1, Julio's ASG Opt-Out & Gino's Derby Snub 1:07:30 | GUEST: Jason Puckett & Mitch on Presbyopia, Mushroom Dares and Getting Snubbed in the Top-10 Radio Hosts List 1:48:05 | GUEST: Rhonda Smith Banchero, Seattle's No. 1 Pick Paolo Banchero Lands $239 M Deal—Mom Rhonda Smith on Raising an NBA Star, Facing Cheryl Swoopes, and the Duke Decision 1:54:07 | Other Stuff Segment: Golf course fight involving NHL player Nick Tarnaski at Alberta Springs, Jeopardy-style home run question and Gino Suarez's All-Star Derby snub, Adrian Peterson celebrity boxing bout vs. Joe Castaneda, Cal Raleigh's special Home Run Derby bats (including Seattle Supersonics tribute), Airbnb listing for Michael Jordan's former Highland Park home, return of John Tesh's “Roundball Rock” NBA theme on NBC, John Elway cart accident clearance, LeBron James's Beverly Hills mansion construction update, Wimbledon champions Iga Swiatek and Jannik Sinner comebacks, Ben Shelton's match and Trinity Rodman misidentification, Auburn's DeAngelo Barber marijuana arrest and drug law commentary, speculation about Tom Brady's next girlfriend, Matt Cameron departing Pearl Jam after 27 years, Lorenzo Lamas filing for sixth divorce, Alan G.

The Oklahoma City Thunder won the 2024-25 NBA title, and who better to discuss it with than the only Thunder fan I know? Danny Foxworth returns to talk about yet another one of his favorite teams taking home a championship after decades of fandom!

Logan returns, the offense does not. The Mariners go 1-9 with runners in scoring position and Julio and Cal were the worst of the bunch. The good news is that Logan looked like Logan, striking out 10 over 5 innings of work and we have had 4 great starts from our pitching staff. Now, if we could just get the pitching and offense to work together more consistently… what a sight that would be! :30- Yes, we have already lamented about last night's 2-0 shutout at the hands of the Red Sox, but it's the top of the order that we have to focus on here. With the bases loaded by the bottom of the order, JP stepped up to the plate with no outs and struck out… followed by Julio and Cal also striking out to leave them loaded and take away nothing. HIGHLIGHTS ATTACHED- including Logan's 10 strikeouts and the strikeouts of JP, Julio and Cal :45- Ok, we have to briefly talk about the NBA Finals. OKC won game 5 to take a 3-2 lead and they could close it out later this week. We knew this would happen eventually, we just hoped we would have a team back before it did.

On September 25, 1997, one of the most shocking trades in NBA history included Seattle SuperSonics legend Shawn Kemp, traded to the Cleveland Cavaliers, and rising star Vin Baker going to the Pacific Northwest. More than two decades later, these two former All-Stars sat down together for the first time to reflect on that pivotal moment in their careers. In this exclusive episode, recorded live from Seattle's Edgewater Hotel in February 2025, Kemp and Baker talk about the day of the trade, what it felt like to be swapped for one another and how their careers unfolded in the years since. They share behind-the-scenes stories about going head-to-head on the court, their experiences playing in front of the passionate Seattle crowd, and how the trade shaped their legacies. The conversation also dives deep into their personal journeys, including battles with addiction, the path to recovery, and life after basketball. They talk about what they're up to now, including Vin's work with the Milwaukee Bucks and the Recovery Centers he's opening—starting in Wisconsin—to support others on their own healing journeys.

The conversation takes a turn as Mitch shares an intense, near-altercation with Kansas fans at the Big 12 tournament, sparked by a well-timed chant.

Detlef grew up in West Germany and left his senior year to be a foreign exchange student in Washington state.  He went on to play college ball for the University of Washington and was drafted to the NBA.  During his 16-year career he was voted NBA's Sixth Man of the Year twice and was the first European player to play in the All-Star game.  Detlef's steady game was an important piece to the successful and exciting Seattle Supersonic teams of the 1990's.  Detlef was on the forefront of European players to make it in the NBA and he has also forged a very successful career in his post-NBA days.

James tells stories about his time in Seattle and Vinnie talks about how adding Seattle and Las Vegas to the NBA could reshape the conferences.With James here, the guys deep-dive into the very interesting New York Knicks. James explains what he doesn't love about the trades for Karl Anthony-Towns and Mikal Bridges, why he considers Tom Thibodeau to be one of the three best coached in the NBA and the guys discuss whether building a championship team around a player as short as Jalen Brunson might not be a great idea.Finally, James has left the Pistons beat behind but he still has plenty of thoughts on the organization and its young players, including making the case for Cade Cunningham to be an all-star this season. Check out the rest of the Yahoo Sports podcast family at https://apple.co/3zEuTQj or at Yahoo Sports Podcasts

VOLTAMOS DAS FÉRIAS! Nesta semana, Denis Botana e Danilo Silvestre chegam no modo gincana para fazer um Draft de Expansão. Sabe quando a NBA ganha times novos e é preciso recheá-los de jogadores? É assim que se faz. A última vez que a NBA teve um Draft de Expansão foi em 2004, para o Charlotte Bobcats (hoje Hornets). Na ocasião cada um dos outros 29 times da NBA "protegeu" oito dos seus jogadores e o Bobcats pode montar seu elenco pegando no máximo um jogador de cada rival. No nosso caso a NBA está recebendo DOIS TIMES. O Denis irá controlar o Seattle SuperSonics, e o Danilo montará o Las Vegas Hangovers, afinal é bem provável que essas cidades sejam realmente as próximas a receberem novas franquias da NBA. Quem será que monta o melhor time? Infelizmente não teremos odds na KTO para esse duelo. A lista dos jogadores protegidos foi feita pelo Vitor Camargo. Você deve conhecer o trabalho dele no podcast Na Era do Garrafão, no livro Era de Gigantes, sobre a história da NBA, ou por ele ter feito o mesmo trabalho nas outras duas versões que fizemos do Draft de Expansão, em 2017 e 2020. Você pode checar a lista de jogadores protegidos pelo Vitor neste link. O livro do Vitor sobre a história da NBA pode ser comprado aqui.

Even when he's 9, and his father dies.

Plus, his middle name is one for the books!!Don't shed a tear, as a 9 year old, with a dead dad, tell people that you'e better than Michael Jordan, in the late 80s, and drive your car across several lanes of freeway, while insisting you're not drunk with Dale Ellis!!Check us out, every Tuesday!We will continue to bring you the biggest idiots in sports history!!
