  • Softy and Dick H3 - Ryan Collingwood previews Eastern Washington matchup / Fun with Audio: Snoop on USWNT pay / Hugh on player compensation
    We're getting closer to the start of the college football season. There's no better time to start looking ahead at the Husky season game by game. Today, we start with Game 1 against Eastern Washington with Ryan Collingwood of The Spokesman-Review. On Fun with Audio, Snoop Dogg wants women's soccer players paid better, Stephen A. reacts to the word "owner", an earthquake struck during a Summer League game, and it's been nine years since LeBron took his talents to South Beach. It was six years ago that the last college football video game was released. With the proposed California law that would allow players to use their own likeness, it seems inevitable that some sort of college player compensation is coming. Hugh gives his thoughts on the potential changes, and how they might affect competition.

  • Softy and Dick H1 - Hugh Millen fills in for Softy / What interests you more? / M's still trying the opener
    We're back after the long 4th of July weekend. Well, Softy isn't back. He's got a couple of weeks off. In his place today, Hugh Millen sits in with Dick Fain. The baseball season continues to drag on while NBA free agency has been fascinating. Dick asks, what interests you more; the MLB season or the NBA offseason? Perhaps unsurprisingly, far more people claim to be interesting the in the NBA. The Mariners continue to try out the closer concept, and the numbers have been horrific, but is the concept flawed, or do the Mariners just not have the right guys to make it work?

  • Softy and Dick H2 - Barry Tramel on the Paul George trade / Ask Hugh Millen: Fullbacks, reporting on injuries / Textimonials
    Big moves continue to happen in the NBA, and this one just might have made the Thunder worse... for now. Paul George has been sent to the Clippers. Barry Tramel of The Oklahoman shares his thoughts on the deal, and the state of the Thunder. We take a rare opportunity to let listeners ask Hugh anything football-related live on air. Textimonials react to the first two hours of the show.

  • Softy and Dick H3 - US Women's National Team storylines / Husky uniforms: First impressions / The next great athlete
    There were close to a dozen big, mostly controversial storylines surrounding the US Women's National Team in the World Cup that added a lot of intrigue to the tournament. Dick and Hugh walk through them one by one. After last week's preview of the Husky uniforms (and a Twitter leak), the new designs are out there. So what are Dick and Hugh's first impressions? Young golfer Matthew Wolff made a name for himself yesterday. He looks like he might be for real, but he may not be the only one.

  • Softy and Dick H1 - Live from Jimmy's on First / Mayor of Maple Valley Open auction continues / Chris Broussard on the NBA
    The Mariners are back at home taking on the Cardinals tonight, and Dick and Dave are at Jimmy's on First to get you ready for the series opener. All day today, we've been auctioning off the last twosome for the Mayor of Maple Valley Open at Druid's Glen next week, and as the day has gone on, the number of perks has exploded. Now, there are several rounds of golf, several additional gift cards, and more. We'll close the bidding on the show at 5:00. Fox Sports' Chris Broussard calls into discuss all things NBA; free agency, the balance of power in the league, the future of NBA basketball in Seattle, and more.

  • Softy and Dick H2 - Nike pulls flag shoe at request of Kaepernick / Football analytics with Warren Sharp / Textimonials
    Nike has decided to pull a shoe with the original United States flag on it, evidently at the request of Colin Kaepernick. We just had a similar discussion last week in regard to the NBA removing the word "owner" because of its connection with slavery. Kaepernick felt the same way about this particular version of the flag. Are we reaching the point where everything reminds someone of something awful, or are these moves necessary in a world of cultural sensitivity? It's time to talk some football analytics with Warren Sharp who has thoughts on the Hawks' run game, and more. Textimonials react to the first two hours of the show at 49451.

  • Softy and Dick H3 - Living breathing Superman / Fun with Audio: McGary on Madden, Mickelson's mom / Brian Schmetzer / Pre-Game Show
    A living breathing Superman walks among us as Jeremy from Lake Stevens donates $1,750 for the final twosome of the Mayor of Maple Valley Open plus a plethora of other rewards, but there's a catch. He challenges Softy to pitch in an extra $500. On Fun with Audio, Kaleb McGary has never played Madden, Phil Mickelson's mom makes an appearance, and Knick fans are upset. Brian Schmetzer discusses the late goal against Vancouver, Leyva's first start, NYC FC, and more. The M's are back at home ot face the Cardinals. We set the lineups and hear from Scott Servais on Baseball's Best Pre-Game Show.

  • Softy and Dick H1 - Landscape of the NBA changes overnight / Enes Kanter impression / Is KD too sensitive? / Dan Dibley on the Warriors
    NBA Free Agency has officially begun, and the number of deals seems to be endless. The balance of power has shifted, with some teams, notably the Nets, getting much much better. Knicks fans thought they'd end up getting a major player, but lost out again as Kevin Durant opts for Brooklyn instead, proving once again that James Dolan is the worst owner in the league. Enes Kanter explains why he signed with Boston and not Portland, and Nate reads the response in his best Turkish accent. Is Kevin Durant too sensitive? Yes he's been through a lot recently, but he's also always been this way. Dan Vogelbach makes the All Star team, but there isn't any real excitement around the game right now. Dan Dibley of 95.7 The Game in San Francisco on what the Warriors will look like without Durant on the team, and are they really going to retire his number after just three years of playing for them?

  • Softy and Dick H3 - Vogelbach and the All Star Game / Kevin Calabro on NBA Free Agency / Lillard's contract / Husky uniforms
    Dan Vogelbach has been named to the All Star team, and he really has shown us a lot this year, and maybe it's even enough to sign him to a long-term deal, but is anyone really paying attention right now? There's a complete lack of passion for this team at the moment and even seeing Vogey in the All Star Game isn't going to fix it. Free Agency is underway in the NBA and Kevin Calabro joins us to go through all of it. Where is Kawhi going to end up? What can be done about James Dolan. Has Damian Lillard shown enough to justify his new contract from the Blazers. Softy isn't so sure. Tomorrow, the media will get the first look at the new Husky uniforms. Softy just wants to see something that will last through the ages rather than something that'll change constantly.
