On Monday’s, Daily Puck Drop, Jason “Puck” Puckett and Jim Moore, former hosts at KJR, discuss their weekend , including Jim's visit to Pullman and whether or not it’s ok to buy your kids a half-gallon of booze? Jim and Puck can’t figure out how the Cougars won on Friday night, but somehow they won the game, and they delve into the Mariners' playoff hopes and Puck tells Jim that he was wrong for rooting against them. Because Jim and Puck are riding high on the Cougs, they put their money down on John Mateer winning the Heisman Trophy! They switch gears to the Seahawks and talked about how they were able to win an ugly, sloppy game.
Jim takes off to walk his dogs again, and Puck is joined by Tim Booth and Curtis Crabtree for their weekly “HawksNest” Show, where they breakdown the Seahawks win over the Dolphins. The Seahawks were able to dominate the game on the defensive side, but how much is that because of the quarterback play for the Dolphins? The season has been a pretty soft landing for Mike Macdonald and his new staff because they have faced Bo Nix, Jacoby Brissett and Skylar Thompson. The season will heat up next week when they take on the Detroit Lions. They turn their attention to the offensive line. It played better at times, but Anthony Bradford has been a disaster and why has Christian Haynes not taken over at the spot yet? Regardless of the opponent, the Seahawks are 3-0 and have a two game lead in the NFC West thanks in part to a number of injuries affecting the other teams. Seattle must take advantage of the situation and they currently are doing that.
Jim Duquette, MLB Network Radio stops by to talk all things baseball. They both marvel at Shohei Ohtani and Puck wonders out loud if he could get 60/60??? The Dodgers have the most pressure going into the season on them, but what are they missing and will that prevent them from winning the whole thing? Who are currently the best teams in the AL and NL? Jim’s answer for the American League may surprise you and it will definitely anger you! Jim and Puck discuss how the Mariners, if they don’t get in, just completely blew a huge opportunity this season especially with how poorly teams like the Royals and Twins have played down the stretch. Julio Rodriguez has turned his season around and a lot of credit has gone to Edgar Martinez. Puck asks Jim if Julio needs to ditch his personal hitting coach in Florida and just work exclusively with Edgar in the offseason. Jim also offered Julio some advice to how he should handle this upcoming offseason.
Lastly, Puck wraps up with, “Hey, What the Puck!?” Puck acknowledges that Chris Egan was right about him being a bad fan and wanting the Mariners to lose games so the season would end.
Puck also announces the release of the PuckSports Mobile App which you can now download from the app store for iPhone users. The android version for Google Play will be out soon! You can now listen to the “Daily Puck Drop” live on your phone daily starting at 10am!
