Ok I stand convicted of click bait. Dave Sims posted pics of his visit to Alcatraz while Yanks are in SFO. https://www.facebook.com/share/p/18RWo6zgNg/   

Brock Huard of KIRO Radio's 'Brock and Salk' tandem will be on the mic again this spring for United Football League games airing the FOX networks.  He'll be on a telecast next weekend, the first weekend in May and then later for these semifinals.    The Puyallup native starred for UW and later played for the Seahawks and Colts 

Great piece in Seattle Met magazine revealing that analyst Angie Mentink suffered a stroke in the off season but fought her way back to the TV booth just in time for the first pitch, overcoming both physical and mental obstacles.   Major props to this pioneering lady.   Worth a read and thanks to a loyal reader who passed the story on to me. https://share.google/0MUXAYxQF7qfZXIir

Grant McOmie, longtime outdoors journalist and personality at both KGW and KATU in Portland, has died at 73 after a brief illness. His grants Getaways were legendary features. NWCN also aired them back in the day.  He knew Oregon, for sure.

Your beloved Mariners have left fans scrambling to find TV games just before opening night. Never believe the team cares about fans. Never.  They hide pricing and Information until the last minute.  Now Apple buys a game and NBC has Sunday.   Fans are marks for this team.  The Mariners specialize on lip service to sell overpriced tickets and concessions. Listen to radio.  I won't watch for a second year in a row.  Boring.  

This time, KING lead anchor Joyce Taylor was live on Opening Day on the field sporting the logos.    Thankfully, Paul Silvi, reporter Sebastian Robertson and reporter Bridget Chavez did NOT don such apparel.   KIRO is in basketball coverage so their anchors were soared from more of yesterday's embarrassing boosterism.
