Dave 'Softy' Mahler and Dick Fain

We give Niner Nate a chance to give his take on a topic of our choice. Your job is to let us know, Is It Great, or Is It Nate? Bill Krueger joins us every Friday to talk Mariner baseball. Today, we discuss the Haniger injury, the Jay Bruce deal, and more. Jon Wilner is making the case for 9am Pac-12 football games. On Textimonials, the worst injuries you've ever suffered.

The Houston Texans fired their GM today. June is a pretty weird time to be making these types of changes. What's going on down there? Matt Thomas of SportsTalk 790 updates us. On Fun with Audio, Draymond says everyone wants the Warriors to lose, Kyle Lowry responds to the incident from the other night, and Mike Francesa invents a new word. We play One or the Other for Sounders tickets.

We are live from Simply Seattle in Pioneer Square awaiting the arrival of Lenny Wilkens as we celebrate the 40th anniversary of the Sonics winning the NBA Championship There was another incident of a fan interfering with a player in last night's game, only this time, he wasn't just a fan, he was an investor. Softy and Dick had a chance to catch up with David Moore and Duane Brown as we bring back Dick and Dave in the Locker Room. With KD still out, and Klay battling injuries, how confident is 95.7 The Game's Bonta Hill in the Warriors now? He calls in to let us know.

Rumors of a Mike Leake trade have been swirling for a few days, and last night he pitched a complete game, theoretically increasing his draft stock. He was on this station earlier, and made some interesting comments and if you read between the lines, he seems to be frustrated. Three-time hall-of-famer Lenny Wilkens joins us both on the phone an din person to remember 1979 Sonics NBA Championship. Textimonials react to Dick's tak eon Russell Wilson.

Tonight, you can hear Game 3 of the NBA Finals right here in 950 KJR, but before that, the Sounders take on the Montreal Impact. All of that means a short show for us. The Mariners lose yet again last night, and it wasn't close. Softy settled in to watch the game, and as yet another reliever took to the mound he had one thought: "Who's Jesse Biddle?" The roster has turned over so much this year that it's hard to keep track of who's even on the roster anymore. Even if you follow the team for your job like we do, roster moves, trades, guys being optioned, DFA'ed; sometimes it slips past the radar. Jesse Biddle is 27. He's not the next big thing. So why is he here? Let's bring up some of our future guys and see what they have. Petros Papadakis gets moved up an hour today. He gives out his phone number on the show. The Warriors would prefer that Klay Thompson doesn't play tonight. It seems like it would still be best if he warmed up before the game to see how he felt. How many injuries can Golden State handle while still remaining the dominant team they've been?

Softy and Dick are live at Jimmy's before another Mariners home game. With the way the season has been going, there isn't as much excitement around T-Mobile Park as there has been in the past. When the team struggles, everyone around it struggles. Yes, this was supposed to be a rebuilding year, but the players don't even seem motivated. How much of this should Scott Servais be blamed for? All of the M's' top five draft picks were college-level pitchers. Clearly Dipoto wants fresh arms in the rotation, and he wants them sooner rather than later. There might be a higher ceiling with some high school prospects, but it's potentially going to take longer for them to develop. The high school football championships are leaving the Tacoma Dome, and Softy says it's a good thing. The facility is a dump. Time to find a better venue. Jason Churchill brings insight to the Mariners' first several draft picks and more.

Jaylen Nowell joins the show to explain why he's decided to forego his time with the Dawgs to stay in the NBA Draft. On Fun with Audio, KD and the Warriors rip on Drake, Mike Francesa is wrong again, and Dick Fain's kids are Avengers experts. Textimoinials react to Scott Servais and the Mariners, the high school championships moving, and more.

Softy and Dick are live from Henry's in South Lake Union, where they will be watching Game 4 of the Stanley Cup Finals. They'll have a chance to win tickets to the first ever game at the new NHL arena in two years. Just as Dick predicted, the Warriors have evened up the NBA Finals, as the series heads to Oakland. Jay Bruce is traded to the Phillies, and the M's have agreed to pay off most of the contract. People are shaking their heads, but it's really in line with what they're trying to do. What's more concerning is the guys on the field now don't seem to be trying very hard. Maybe time ot look for a new manager? Kenny Albert is on the call for tonight's Stanley Cup game. He checks in to preview the matchup.

Last week we found out the Seahawks are going after Malik McDowell for the money he was paid. Now, he's firing back on the Seahawks claiming there is other reasons the Hawks wouldn't allow him to play. Thus far, he hasn't provided any evidence, and probably never will. We're learning as much as we can about hockey as we look ahead to tonight's Stanley Cup Game 4. NHL.com's Dan Rosen talks about tonight's matchup, and the league's entrance into Seattle. Chris Ackerley of NHL Seattle drops by Henry's to update us with the latest on the team's development.
