On today’s Daily Puck Drop, Jason “Puck” Puckett opens up the show with Jim Moore, the Go-2-Guy, who is back after being out this week getting over a cold. Jim details his trip to Pullman where he went to celebrate Parents weekend with his kids. Jim went golfing with one of his son’s girlfriend’s father and ended up tipping over their golf cart. Jim recaps the hilarity that followed. They briefly touch in on the M’s, but mainly focus on the Masters and the near collapse in the first round from Rory McILroy and their hope that he can keep it going over the weekend. Jim and Puck also talk about a new golf course being considered in Westport, Washington called Westport Golf Links, which is being designed by David McLay Kidd, who built Bandon Dunes and Gamble Sands. Jim departs from the show because he’s still under the weather and Puck welcomes Chris Egan from KING 5 to the show for his weekly visit. Egan is back after spending last week in Arizona for spring break. Egan and Puck talk about why it’s so hard for this state to get no brainer ideas done like the golf course in Westport, adding sports like lacrosse, flag football and pickleball to be officially recognized by the WIAA in our state. Egan also details his trip to Arizona and how he and other parents watching their kids play in a junior college baseball game lose it with some bad umpiring. Puck details his mishap with his little league team and how both he and Egan need to learn from their mistakes in dealing with umpires. Chris also details finally taking his shirt off in the pool, his love for In-and-Out Burger, renting an airbnb, High Noons and why doesn’t he live in the sun! Puck also welcomes “The Scout”, his Friday weekly chat with an anonymous MLB scout who has been covering the sport for 30+ years. They talk about the top players he has ever scouted in Washington, plus, this year’s crop of high school talent has four very good players with all four having a great chance to be drafted very high. They get into the current state of the Mariners and all their injuries, specifically to Ryan Bliss and Victor Robles. What impact will their losses have on the team? “The Scout” details whether or not there is help down in Tacoma with Cole Young, Ben Williamson and Tyler Locklear. Puck wraps up the show with “Hey, What the Puck!?” Another college football horror story.
