Mike Salk

Joe Fann joins us for his weekly visit and Salk asks him where he believes Russ ranks in an all-time view after Ryan Clark's comments, and Joe's answer differs greatly. Salk shares a story about a point-shaving scheme he learned via "Bad Sports" on Netflix and wonders if ANY sports are real. John Clayton's Morning Drive ranks the NFL coaching hires.

The comments Ryan Clark made yesterday about Russell Wilson being a 'great' or an 'all-time great' QB has Salk both agreeing and disagreeing. Dan Patrick made a comment about Russell asking for a way out of Seattle similar to the way Matt Stafford got out of Detroit. Tuesdays are for 'Take the L' and Maura + Justin crush Salk for hating The Lion King before talking to Brock Huard.

The show starts with Maura quizzing Salk's knowledge on the sport of Curling (and he doesn't do great). We go Around 710 and hear Jake & Stacy (10a-2p) discuss how the M's fan base should actually be appealing to free agents and hear from Wyman and Bump on how the Seahawks defense could improve with the new coaching alignment.

Salk takes your calls on where you want to see the M's add when the lockout end. Then, Brock Huard joins Salk to talk about his disdain for the Pro Bowl and what he's watching in the Olympics. Plus, in honor of Salk's daughter's debut as Ursula in a performance of the Little Mermaid, Ranked is all Disney Villains today.

Dan Szymborski of Fangraphs joins us to explain his projection for the Mariners and how they got to the 80-win projection of a team that won 90 games last season. Salk reads some new (and hilarious) Apple podcast reviews before discussing the Seahawks defensive hires of Clint Hurtt and Ed Donatell. John Clayton's Morning Drive covers the coaching hires around the league.

Fangraphs/ZiPS projects the M’s to finish in 4th at 80-82 (10 fewer wins than their total last year) and Salk argues that it's because computers won’t recognize Fun Differential. The Seahawks hired some outsiders to the defensive coaching staff (as well as promoting Clint Hurtt), but is this an admission that they need some new ideas? We replay Justin's Super Bowl surprise from Friday before speaking to Brock Huard and hear about Salk's daughter's performance in 'Little Mermaid' over the weekend.

Is the Pro Bowl the worst football event ever? Maura tried to watch it (but fell asleep) and Salk couldn't be bothered to change the channel from watching Jordan Spieth's collapse at Pebble Beach. Maura takes us around the Olympic events from the weekend and NHL All-Star game in Las Vegas. The Seahawks finally hired some defensive coaches and Salk argues there's no such thing as too many "cooks in the kitchen."

Salk takes you phone calls on everything Seattle sports like we do every Friday and Justin gets the surprise of a lifetime from his friends and family. Then, Brock Huard gives his thought on some Russell Wilson trade proposals and we talk clubs in today's edition of Ranked.

Gee Scott (Gee & Ursula, 97.3 KIRO) makes his weekly visit to address his perspective on Brian Flores and the NFL's handling of important issues surrounding race. ESPN reports the NFL's investigation into Washington might not be available to the public unless Dan Snyder gives permission because of an agreement made between the NFL and the team. We discuss Russell's performance at the Pro Bowl Skill competition before John Clayton's Morning Drive.

This entire week has been brought to you by the word “accountability.” It started with Richard Sherman, the MLB owners, Blackhawks owner Rocky Wirtz and now a couple more stories from Dan Snyder in Washington have Salk wondering what it would take for them to just treat people with respect? We read 7 Russell Wilson trade proposals from ESPN and get Brock Huard's thoughts on if any would be worthy.
