Episode Description
Daniel Salle back in for Brian. The Mariners are on an 8-game winning streak that started right after last week’s “don’t panic” episode. The Castillo/Miller piggyback is actually working (the numbers are filthy). UW football’s recruiting class keeps growing. Mitch Johnson’s Spurs are in the NBA Finals against the Knicks. Plus Stephen Curry’s billion-dollar Lining deal and Myles Garrett to the Rams.
Also: pour one out for the East Bay catalog.
