Mariners betray their fans



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.

    And the NBC game Sunday Wayne isn't actually on NBC, but on Peacock and for those who are lucky to have it (YouTube TV and I think Comcast?), NBCSN. But you are not alone in your outrage about the different issues at play here. NY Yankees TV voice Michael Kay has voiced similar sentiments Wayne. MLB was handling the arrangements for all of the teams together and only finalized theirs with DIRECTV yesterday morning getting their streaming subs access to MLB.TV through DTV Stream among other things. Being able to watch the Mariners this year is going to be a bit of a chore and that is sad. And it is not something that the team is able to control since they ceded all that to the commissioner's office.

    You're correct. NBA on NBC Sunday. Difficult to navigate for sure. MLB may be to blame for this but the price for pay cable was hidden and no one publicized it or reported it accurately. Missed opportunity for the league and team. And I am sure many fans don't understand the league involvement. They just want to see a championship team. It becomes a poor excuse, no matter. Thanks for chiming in

Rebecca Stevenson has left KOMO

 "I am no longer at Komo 4." Thanks.  Longtime Weather Anchor Rebecca Stevenson confirms that she left the station just before Christmas.  Her last Facebook posts are 12/17.  She has the Seattle station Quintafecta, having worked at the old NWCN, KING, KIRO, KCPQ and KOMO.  Looks like her decision.  Wants a new chapter.   She was doing mainly weekend evenings for KOMO.  Perhaps Stella Sun will move there.   She has been sharing weekend mornings with Theron Zahn.

Where is Frankie?

Many have missed KIRO 7's weekend PM weather anchor, Frankie Katafias, so I reached out to some of my sources to find an answer.    She is apparently taking a few months of leave, but not known specifically what the reason may be.  Although there is uncertainty, it could be a personal or family matter.   I am told she is expected back at some point in the new year.  She is a great asset to what has become a troubled station.  Meanwhile former KOIN Portland chief met holds down the fort.

Seattle TV Weekender Ends Her Run

  So long to KOMO's longtime weekend morning anchor Lee Stoll who did her final show Saturday.  She previously worked at KIRO7 and KREM2 in Spokane and did a little fill-in for me at the old NWCN.  She's a Northwestern U grad.   Weekend weather sidekick Theron Zahn will likely step right into anchor slot.  Newcomer Stella Sun may also be in the mix.  Zahn bid Lee a final goodbye this morning.  She is not revealing what is next, saying "That's for later." Also, next month Komo News Operations boss Dennis Hanson and longtime Production Tech Rena Mullen are retiring. There's a big Studio C station bash for them and retiring ND Phil Bruce on December 5th.
