Go Zags. That was a great win.

Gonzaga's Tyon Grant-Foster is my favorite college basketball player who will be 26 by the end of the season and the race is not particularly close.

Ike to Grant-Foster alley-oop! That was SIIIIIIICK

Zags always got dudes, but this year they got some dawgs too. Really showing up on the offensive glass.

Really bad case of the Gun-zah-guhs on the TNT pregame.

Darnold and JSN

The Seahawks' white jersey/gray pants combo is a weird one. Can barely tell on TV it's not all-white uniforms.

Seahawks' defense didn't really look like the Seahawks' defense on the opening drive. They've played well through injuries this year but could be a different story today with an entire starting position group out.

Hey now! What a win on the road AGAIN by the Kraken. And a tremendous play to set up Montour for the winner. These dudes are pretty fun.

The Kraken have been one of the surprises of the NHL early on. Play-by-play voice John Forslund shared his insight on what's led to the strong start with Bump and Stacy. sports.mynorthwest.com/bump-and-sta...

That third period was fun as heck. The Kraken got moxie.

How about this Kraken comeback? Good hockey!

The Seattle Kraken are off to their best start ever even with injuries to several key players early on in their fifth season. sports.mynorthwest.com/nhl/seattle-...

I hope Josh Naylor got it written into his contract that he gets to hit leadoff for the first 15 games and then as long as he keeps his OBP over .340.

I think the Seahawks made the right call hiring Mike Macdonald.

I'm shaking my head in disbelief every time JSN catches a Sam Darnold pass. It's the same feeling as when Cal Raleigh took off this year.

JSN is in the superstar Seahawks WR category that used to only include Steve Largent.

Was wondering this week which of the Seahawks or Huskies were most at risk of a trap game this weekend. There's the answer.

So, uh, go buy your Sam Darnold jerseys because this dude is SOMETHING

The Seattle... Seahawks?

Sam Darnold is playing out of his mind. Arroyo didn't catch that TD so much as found it in his hand.

The Seahawks are using this primetime opportunity to demand to be recognized.

Darnold’s accuracy is outrageous right now. Just laser pointing it out there.

Of people who own Seahawks jerseys, what percentage do you think have one of a current player? Has to be super low. I feel like the majority I see around town are still Russ, DK and Bobby. Kind of emblematic of how this version of the team, while good, hasn't yet captured the fanbase's imagination.

I'm Bo-lieving now 🇨🇦

George Springer up there swinging like Roy Hobbs in the final game from The Natural (the ABs before the homer)

Been a long time since a Mariners player hit free agency and the response was "gotta get them back." I mean... Hisashi Iwakuma? Kendrys Morales?

Gonna be some very conflicted feelings in Canada when Freddie Freeman suits back up in the red and white in next year's World Baseball Classic. 🇨🇦 🍁 🇨🇦 🍁 🇨🇦

From the "Thing That Isn't A Problem Until It's A Problem" file, baseball should probably institute a three intentional walk maximum per game, and make it regardless of extra innings.

So that 6th inning for Toronto: - 2 HR - 4 singles - 2 BB - 1 HBP encapsulates their entire deal and shows what makes them so dangerous. No strikeouts, obviously! and also two tanks. Doing both is the absolute nearly-impossible ideal. And they're doing it.

I'm OK if the Blue Jays have a higher purpose this year.

Blue Jays hitters continue to pester Seattle pitchers, driving up Blake Snell's pitch count despite not scoring in the first.

The real reason the #Mariners lost in the ALCS to the Blue Jays is about much more than one pitching change before a critical at-bat in Game 7, writes @brentstecker.bsky.social. sports.mynorthwest.com/mlb/seattle-...

Temperatures in the mid-40s on the first morning after the Mariners' season ended. That's a new one.

Blue Jays were the better team. The Mariners looked out of gas and an arm short, because they only had four reliable relievers and most of their starters were a bad matchup for the Jays so they got seen a lot. But the Mariners had the opportunity to win that game and pressed the wrong buttons.

Go get a run. Go get a couple. It ain't over.

George Kirby hasn't looked all that confident but he's got that extra Game 7 giddy-up and that's playing.

Good lord. That was the FIRST inning.

Kirby certainly amped up. Pumping the fastball.

The Mariners coming out with a mean streak I see. The Naylor play, 98 high and inside TWICE to Springer. Good for them.

I had an odd concern going into tonight: Who is the Mariners' ALCS MVP candidate? They didn't really have one, which didn't seem like a good sign. But now? It's Josh Naylor.

ARod picks the Mariners, Jeter picks the Blue Jays. I like Seattle tonight.

In Game 7, the Mariners get to play the role that's always been comfortable for Seattle sports teams. As underdogs, with their backs against the wall and chips on their shoulders. If they're going to make history tonight, this is the way it should be. sports.mynorthwest.com/mlb/seattle-...

It has to be this way. Their backs have to be against the wall. They have to be doubted. *Seattle* has to be doubted.

I liked the Mariners' chances today. And then ARod picked the Blue Jays and Jeter picked the Mariners. ARod has been right with his prediction all but I think one game this series. I think Jeter was only right when they all picked the M's in Game 5.

Let me tell you, Blue Jays fans who remember 2022 do not feel comfortable right now.

Will be very interesting to see if the Mariners manage this one like a must-win or save the bullpen arms for the second chance tomorrow. If they can keep the Jays at four runs, they've got a chance. If not, might need to cut their losses tonight.

Scoring runs would be nice, but loading the bases in back-to-back innings means the Jays gotta go to bullpen sooner rather than later.
