Brock and Salk talk through what jumped out to them about the Mariners best series of the year with a sweep in San Diego. They also debate some of Dan Wilson's in-game decisions and why it may not matter if they are potentially head scratching or not (with a reference to George Costanza). In Blue 88, topics include a redeeming quality of Brock Purdy that Sam Darnold needs to grow into, watching film in the NFL and what will be something interesting to watch in Bill Belichick's transition to college football.

The Mariners had their best series of the year over the weekend, sweeping the Padres, and Salk looks at two words that embody the team right now. Afterwards, they go Around The Weekend with storylines from the Mariners, WNBA and the PGA Championship.

Stacy Rost join Salk to discuss whether the M's recent skid was due to injuries or the offense cooling down. Then, we discuss the M's starting a 10 game road trip, John Shcneider's comments about how they will use Jalen Milroe on Rich Eisen's show, and the PGA Championship in Need to Know. Plus, we take your calls, as we do every Friday.

Will Carroll, author of the book "Under The Knife" joins the show to discuss the numerous Mariners injuries along with the impact of pitching injuries long term. After that, Gee Scott stops by for his weekly segment to share his thoughts on the Seahawks schedule, how he feels about the upcoming Seahawks season and plenty more.

Salk wonders what the main cause of the Mariners tough homestand was: injuries, or offensive regression? The show also goes Around The NFL with headlines from the Steelers, Caleb Williams, the Bengals and Giants. In Blue 88, topics include dual threat QB packages, a similarity between the Seahawks and Giants and Riq Woolen.

Salk saw that one national NFL writer predicted the Seahawks to go 5-12, and he (for good reason) can't understand why. Then, they re-air their conversation with former NFL GM Mike Mayock, who shares why he loves Jalen Milroe as a player, the Seahawks draft and more.

Losing 5 of 6 didn't feel as disastrous as it normally would for the M's. They were in most of those games, they have reinforcements coming in Kirby and Gilbert, and they figured out what's going on with Bryce Miller. Then, we react to Pete Carroll's comments on what went down at the end of his tenure here. 

The hour starts with listener voicemails for Here's The Thing. Later, Brian Nemhauser (aka Hawkblogger) joins the show to give a full breakdown on everything that stands out to him about the Seahawks schedule for 2025.

The Seahawks schedule is out and Brock and Salk share their thoughts. How many games can they win, looking at the schedule? They also wonder if the off day for the Mariners will be a day for any transactions or not. In Blue 88, Brock dives in on how unique Marshawn Lynch was, why Graham Barton is a good player comparison for Grey Zabel and some confirmation on something that a recent guest opined.

Salk takes a look at the Mariners home runs, walks and strikeouts throughout the homestand, paired to the amount that they gave up in that time, and references it as to why he believes the Mariners struggled so much over the last week. Then, they re-air their conversation with Pete Carroll, who discusses his new chapter as the Raiders head coach, the end of his time in Seattle and plenty more.
