Softy & Dick 8-29: Lee Sterling and Hugh Millen Aug 29, 2025

Show notes

Softy cannot stand the new "rivalry" jerseys the Seahawks rolled out, but Dick takes the Oregon/Jets/Eagles element out of it and says they actually look good. Softy vehemently disagrees with that hypothetical. The guys discuss the potential for Washington Football this year as we watch them kickoff their season tomorrow night. Micah Parsons is a Packer - Softy and Dick discuss the trade from a Seattle perspective. Should the Seahawks have jumped in harder? Dick questions the money, but Softy would've done it considering the rise in the salary cap the NFL will have in the next few years. Lee Sterling, Paramount Sports joins Softy and Dick to handicap the first weekend of college football! Biggest games of the weekend, he's got you covered. Hugh Millen gives the final thought on the Seahawks 'rivalry' uniforms, in which he declares them 'trash'. He explains why. Hugh goes on to explain what the Huskies will be facing in Colorado State tomorrow night with an offensive scheme headed up by head coach Matt Mumme. Hugh tells us what he's looking for from the Huskies in their first game of the season. Finally, his thoughts on the Micah Parsons trade.
