The Seahawks' 2026 schedule, unveiled in a segment titled 'For You in Review,' sparks a mix of excitement and criticism, with host Brock Huard and co-host Mike Salk dissecting its primetime matchups and scheduling quirks. While the team’s six primetime games—including a Christmas Day showdown with the Rams—are celebrated as a win for visibility, caller Roger DeComa argues the NFL made a strategic misstep by sending the Seahawks to Australia for their opening game, calling it a missed opportunity to spotlight the team on a national stage. The episode also dives into the Mariners’ injury crisis, as Cal Raleigh’s IL placement casts a shadow over the team’s offensive outlook, prompting deep concern from the hosts. Yet amid the gloom, there’s cautious optimism: Matt Brash’s dominant return to Tacoma offers a glimmer of hope for the bullpen. The show’s signature blend of sports analysis and absurd humor peaks with a deep dive into the origin of the phrase 'get my goat,' complete with goat sound effects and a debate over whether goats have triangular or rectangular pupils—proving that even the most trivial topics can become viral moments. The episode closes with a heartfelt tribute to longtime caller Roger DeComa, hailed as the show’s most consistent and insightful fan. The episode’s standout insight? The NFL’s scheduling decisions aren’t just about logistics—they’re about narrative. By sending the Seahawks to Australia for their opener, the league risks burying a compelling story beneath a media circus around Vrabel and Rassini. Meanwhile, the Mariners’ injury woes underscore a deeper truth: even the most talented teams are fragile when key players fall. But the real takeaway? The power of a passionate fan base. Roger DeComa’s call, filled with sharp analysis and unwavering loyalty, proves that the best voices in sports aren’t always on the field—they’re on the phone, calling in from the Pacific Northwest with fire in their voice.
The NFL’s decision to send the Seahawks to Australia for their opener undermines their national visibility and risks overshadowing their story with off-field drama.
Cal Raleigh’s injury could cost the Mariners 35-40 home runs this season, forcing a major offensive reshuffle and increasing pressure on players like Julio and Naylor.
Matt Brash’s dominant return to Tacoma is a critical boost for the Mariners’ bullpen, with his nastiness in the zone being a game-changing asset.
The phrase 'get my goat' likely originated from either horse racing (where goats calmed nervous horses) or dairy farming (where goats boosted milk production).
A six-man rotation is not a sustainable solution for the Mariners—pitchers still face the same third-time-through-the-order challenge, and their off-days are filled with intense work.
