HUGH MILLEN joins us to give us a deep dive into the Seahawks new running back, Emmanuel Wilson. How does Hugh feel about the moves the Seahawks did and didn’t make during free agency? Hugh’s thoughts on the Cal vs Randy handshake saga. :30- Do we need to take a serious look at whether or not Danny Sprinkle is the right guy for the job at UW as the team misses the NCAA tournament once again? :45- We close out the show and week with Booze News.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
We cover the top 8 sports stories of the week in the OCHO 1. The frenzy has come to an end 2. The Seahawks keep their own 3. Will there be a QB competition in Minnesota? 4. UW’s season comes to an end 5. The Kraken are in a slump… again. 6. The WBC resumes this afternoon 7. The Sounders face the Earthquakes 8. KJR weekend :30- The frenzy has come to an end; are we satisfied with what the Seahawks did this week? :45- Bryce Miller has been sidelined with an oblique injury and will start the season in the IL, what’s our level of concern? See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Headlines and 12th Man News with GREGG BELL (Tacoma News Tribune) The Seahawks have a new running back, so Gregg gives us the lowdown on the addition of Emmanuel Wilson. Do we expect him to be vying for the starting role? If not Wilson, then who? Will JSN reset the market for wide receivers? How much will Devon Witherspoon get? Could those impending contract negotiations get complicated? And what about Darnold next year? Did John Schneider accomplish exactly what he hoped to accomplish this week? What surprises were there? :30- Does the WBC mean more in other countries than it does here and does winning it mean more than winning the World Series? :45- We love a good throwback uniform and the Tennessee Titans have unveiled their new uniforms and it’s a nod to the Oiler days… Now, can they also change the name back to the Oilers? See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Whoah Mother Nature, what’s with all the snow? The Seahawks added running back Emmanuel Wilson. Do we expect him to jump in and fill the Ken Walker hole or does Schneider have more moves up his sleeve? :30- Randy Arozarena is headed back to Peoria and it may be the perfect thing to finally put this Cal/Randy handshake sage to rest. The two of them can’t face each other again and hopefully the Mariners can squash the whole thing with Randy there. Do we expect any similar handshake/hugs to occur if the USA faces the Dominican? They have to get through Canada first. :45- The Big 12 is making a change to their tournament court after showcasing an innovative LED glass court during their women’s tournament and the beginning of the men’s tournament, there was just one problem… well quite a few actually. The LED court was slippery, causing injuries and headaches for the players. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

MATT SANTANGELO (Zags basketball) Matt makes his annual visit to the show to talk Zags basketball as they head into another NCAA tournament. Was Matt a part of the new Zags documentary? This year has been a little more difficult for Gonzaga, how confident is Matt feeling about their tourney chances? How has Gonzaga found so much success in basketball? :30- It’s been quiet for the Seahawks as the new league year begins. They are one of only two teams who haven’t signed anyone new. Are we ok with the lack of free agency splash? :45- We close out the show with one last thing! See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
We revisit the Maxx Crosby situation in Las Vegas. Are the raiders going to come down on their asking price for Crosby after the Ravens nixed the trade? The Ravens said he didn’t pass their physical, but it was convenient that they had Trey Hendrickson signed right away and it’s seeming like they just got cold feet and backed out of the trade. The Raiders made a lot of moves in free agency, but still have cap room for Crosby and they’re playing it up like they really want him and he really wants to be there. Will any other team step up and make an offer for Crosby that the Raiders can’t refuse? :30- We’re trying something new and putting the listeners in charge! Sup? It’s a simple question with less simple answers. :45- Phew! The US made it through to the quarterfinals of the WBC, but we definitely didn’t need that tension and stress! Now the US will face Canada on Friday at 5pm and they’re allowed to make roster changes. Skubal, Wacha and Yarborough are now all off the roster, being replaced by Tim Hill, Tyler Rogers and Will Vest… See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Headlines and 12th Man News with GREGG BELL (Tacoma News Tribune) The Seahawks made some moves that might seem minor, but were important for the franchise moving forward and Gregg gives us all the info on the signings. Who might the Seahawks be looking at to replace Ken Walker? What’s the latest on Maxx Crosby and the Seahawks interest? :30- The Huskies stayed alive after an OT win over USC in the first round of the Big Ten tournament. Is Danny Sprinkle the answer? The team continues to struggle to be successful, but they did deal with a lot of injuries this year, is that a valid excuse? It isn’t just the last two year, this team hasn’t had success in the tournament since 2010 and they haven’t made it to the tourney since 2019, so why is UW not able to crack the code? :45- Mariners Opening Day is only TWO WEEKS away! Is Chuck throwing out the first pitch? Cole Young is putting up some serious numbers in Spring Training; will he be our starting 2nd baseman on opening day? See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
We survived the windstorm! Maxx Crosby is clearly re-thinking his future in Las Vegas and the Raiders seem to be mending the relationship with their star, or is it all being done just to maintain his trade value and lure in potential trade partners? :30- Team USA advances to the WBC quarterfinals thanks to Team Italy and Vinnie Pasquantino. Did Italy really want to win for themselves and to help out Team USA? Perhaps. :45- Cal vs Randy is still a thing and other teams are sending a message to the US as Fernando Tatis and William Contreras hugged at the plate before the DR/Venezuela game yesterday. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
We had four BIG topics this morning and we covered them all!See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
We had four BIG topics this morning and we covered them all!See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
We return the conversation to baseball and the WBC. Was it a massive upset that Italy beat the US last night? No, but it would be a huge upset if the US doesn’t make it out of pool play because the US thought they’d already punched their ticket to the quarterfinals. How much of this is on manager Mark DeRosa? :30- AL KINISKY (KAN Color Analyst) What is going on with Bobby McMann’s paperwork? When can we expect the newest member of the Kraken to actually play in a game? Matty Beniers is showing some toughness and grit and we like it! Can the Kraken get the job done in this last stretch of the season? :45- We wrap up our show with one last thing! See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
HUGH MILLEN joins the show with his thoughts on the Seahawks free agents returning and more from the frenzy. We start with Rashid Shaheed, how will the payday for Shaheed be worth it for the Seahawks? What should we expect? And now the Seahawks have a hole to fill with Ken Walker headed to Kansas City. Did they make a mistake letting walker go and how will they fill the void? :30- Hugh is back with more of his thoughts on Seahawks free agency: The Hawks lose Riq Woolen and keep Josh Jobe, how does Hugh feel about that? :45- The Ravens have created quite a mess in the NFL with The Maxx Crosby failed trade. Now Crosby is back on the trade block and it appears that the Raiders are still seeking two first round picks as compensation for the veteran defensive end. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Headlines and 12th Man News with GREGG BELL (Tacoma News Tribune) We have to start with the Maxx Crosby news… now that the trade to the Ravens has been nixed, are the Seahawks back in the mix? Riq Woolen is headed to Philadelphia, but only on a one-year deal. Geno Smith is on his way back to the NY Jets… will it work the second time around? :30- Ok, so maybe this Cal and Randy is a thing… Cal made a statement ahead of last night’s game and said he reached out to Randy, but it doesn’t appear that Randy responded. Are we concerned that this will cause problems in the Clubhouse when the guys are back with the Mariners? No, we think it will absolutely be resolved by then, but it’s definitely more of a thing than we originally thought. :45- It’s time to get Reckless at Breakfast! Does the format of the WBC need to be changed? Should pool play be eliminated? Do the eligibility rules need to be changed for players representing other countries? See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
We have to start with the WBC… it was bad enough that USA lost to Italy last night, but for DeRosa to have thought that the US had punched their ticket to the quarterfinals after the win over Mexico takes things to a new level. Apparently team USA sat around telling stories and drinking beer after the win over Mexico and there were some guys who weren’t feeling too great yesterday as DeRosa told MLB Network. How did no one correct him and tell him they weren’t guaranteed a spot in the quarters yet? The US went out and gave up 5 runs early to Italy… sloppy defensive play added three more runs and the US found themselves in an 8-0 hole before their bats woke up. Now we wait to see what happens with Italy and Mexico today and can only hope that the US isn’t eliminated. :30- The Drama in the WBC wasn’t the only thing going on last night… The Baltimore Ravens backed out of the trade with the Raiders for Maxx Crosby, saying he didn’t pass their physical. This morning they have conveniently signed Trey Hendrickson to a 4-year deal and got to keep their first round draft picks. So, did Crosby fail the physical or did the Ravens just get cold feet? :45- We told you there was a lot going on, so we head to the NBA, where Bam Adebayo dropped 83 points last night. But it was not without controversy as 43 points came from free throws and the Heat were doing all they could to get him the ball and more time to score.

It's the best our Tamperfest Specialty Show!See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Day 1 of Tamperfest was madness and Day 2 has been very quiet as we begin our 2nd hour of our Tamperfest specialty show with mike Sando still in-studio. Let’s talk about quarterbacks- namely our quarterback: The Geno Smith and Sam Darnold storylines could not have been more polar-opposites in 2025. And what about other QB moves around the league this week? Should Kyler Murray leave the NFL for MLB? Things have been very quiet this morning and Riq Woolen is still out there on the free agent market- will he land a really big deal? How did Mike feel about the Jobe contract? Is Ken Walker the answer Kansas City has been looking for? :30- The Ol Judge is here and Mike Sando is ready to prove he belongs in the courtroom! Ken Walker is not only going to be good in Kansas City, he’s going to win a rushing title. JSN will become the highest paid wide receiver in the league and he’s going to make $50 million a year. The Randy-Cal handshake-gate is going to end up being a problem. :45- We wrap up this Day 2 of Tamperfest show with one last thing! See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
MIKE SANDO (The Athletic) is in-studio to talk tampering! What do the Seahawks lose with Ken Walker now suiting up for the Chiefs and how do they fill that hole? What options are there to replace Walker and who would make the best fit? Is Shaheed worth what the Seahawks are going to pay him or was it a reaction to losing Walker and needing to keep one of them? Should we be surprised that the Hawks weren’t able to keep Coby Bryant? Boye Mafe is headed to the Bengals for $20 million a year, is Sando surprised that Mafe got that much and does Hendrickson have a reputation? :30- More with Mike Sanod! The 49ers and Rams were making adds while the Seahawks were trying to hang onto their own. Did our division rivals improve drastically? Was the Mike Evans addition the answer the 49ers have been looking for? How lost are the Arizona Cardinals? :45- The Las Vegas Raiders sure were busy yesterday, spending the most money in free agency so far and making a lot of additions to their team. Is this the way to improve your team quickly or is it just a component and are they on the right path? Is Tyler Linderbaum the key addition with Fernando Mendoza most likely headed to Vegas with he 1st pick in the draft? See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Headlines and 12th Man News with GREGG BELL (Tacoma News Tribune) The Seahawks lose Walker, Bryant and Mafe and keep Shaheed and Jobe- what did Gregg think of the moves made on Day 1 of Tamperfest? What was most surprising to him? The Seahawks will start the season with Charbonnet and now that Walker is gone; what is the plan for the Seahawks at running back? :30- EVERETT FITZHUGH (Kraken Audio Network PxP) The Kraken waited until the very last minute, but ended up pulling off a trade for Bobby McMann before the deadline. What does Everett think of the addition, what does he bring to this team and where will fit? When can we expect to see McMann make his debut with the Kraken? :45- Should the Seahawks be concerned after losing Coby Bryant and Boye Mafe and do they have holes to fill or do they already have the personnel?
