Gallant Says

I know. I've been lazy. But I'm back, with a new twist. Whether in Houston or Seattle, I've always called my show "The Most Interactive" in town...nay the World. Unfortunately, podcasts aren't particularly interactive. So I'm changing that. Every weekday around 3 PM CT, this show will be LIVE on Twitch at https://www.twitch.tv/gallantsays. And you get to join the peanut gallery...but only on Twitc...

I've got a big announcement. I'm back on the radio in Houston! I'll be talking sports with Vanessa Richardson weekdays from 10-noon CT on ESPN 97.5 in Houston. And what better way to get things started by getting to know Vanessa? If you want to contribute to the Gordy Anderson Memorial Scholarship, go to https://foundation.wsu.edu/give/ and search "Gordy". The scholarship should populate in that l...

1:23 - There's two reasons that Paul will be rooting for the Bengals in Super Bowl 56. 7:51 - The Texans hired Lovie Smith as their head coach. Paul doesn't hate the move. But given what we were expecting (Josh McCown) and the way things changed so quickly over the weekend, how the hell did they come to that decision? 17:14 - ESPN's Ryan Clark had a controversial take on Russell Wilson...at least...

0:27 - I moved back to Houston. Here's why. (And don't worry, this will remain a Seattle/Houston podcast) 6:47 - I'm glad that Brian Flores is suing the NFL. But it has nothing to do with the alleged discrimination, and everything to do with a problem across sports. 14:52 - It's practically impossible to unite all Seahawks fans, but I've got an argument based on old school football AND science (ph...

2:12 - The Seahawks season is over. Sad! The dead still need eulogies. But how are you supposed to properly remember a disappointing year like this? 8:30 - I think Seahawks fans and Texans fans can bond over this. Want to know the # 1 sign of an ineffective NFL head coach? It's when it's clear that he's no longer improving. You can't deny it anymore in Seattle. And in Houston, you may as well give...

2:24 - A backup quarterback owns the Seahawks. It's the worst. Paul explains the phenomenon of "Sports Daddies", and reacts to some listener suggestions. 10:15 - A couple of things that Pete Carroll and Russell Wilson said have Paul thinking there's little chance that Seattle can turn things around after this 3-7 start. 13:40 - Jacson Bevens writes AND talks about the Seahawks via Cigar Thoughts (...

:57 - Paul's had a really rough year and a half. But Thursday night, everything was back to the way it's supposed to be. 5:45 - Shohei Ohtani and Bryce Harper are two incredible players. But they played on mediocre teams this year that were nowhere close to playoff contention. Were they really worthy of the "Most Valuable Player" awards if they played on teams that didn't matter? 15:59 - Mariners...

2:06 - Things look pretty, pretty bad for the 3-6 #Seahawks. But again, Paul thinks it's completely possible for them to turn this around by the end of the season. They'll have plenty of chances against teams they SHOULD be better than down the stretch. The problem? Sunday was massive blown opportunity. 8:16 - Shane Waldron has been a failure as the Seahawks offensive coordinator thus far. There's...

After a month long hiatus, Paul is back with a special guest. 2:22 - Odell Beckham Jr. is now a member of the Los Angeles Rams. But this isn't your big brother's OBJ. 13:20 - While we're on the Rams, they've been praised for their extreme aggressiveness over the past couple of seasons. But does anyone else think they might be skirting the rules with the way they cook their books? 20:01 - Russell W...

1:03 - It's obvious that Russell Wilson's injury was the worst thing that could happen for the Seahawks in 2021. But Paul's more concerned about the thoughts Russell Wilson might have while he sits back and watches this roster try to stay afloat. 5:54 - Jon Gruden resigned as the Las Vegas Raiders head coach after hot racist, homophobic, and misogynistic messages emails were made public. It's on b...

1:02 - Pete Carroll's defense was able to keep Trey Lance and the 49ers in check on Sunday. And statistically, Bill Belichick's defense slowed down Tom Brady and the Bucs. But the two coaches aren't giving their teams the edge that they used to. 11:44 - An incredible Mariners season came to an end this weekend. Now? The real question begins. Are they satisfied? Content to sit on their hands this o...

Paul is rooting for a Red Sox collapse this weekend so the Mariners can complete an improbable season with their first playoff appearance in 20 years. But he's also from Boston. Is he allowed to want this? Plus, Tom Brady's return to Foxboro has Paul feeling like he's a kid in the midst of a divorce. Again. Classic.

Think about this. Kirk Cousins and Alexander Mattison (who?) just stuffed the Seahawks into a locker. There's a lot of reasons for panic right now. Seattle is currently 1-2, looking up at San Francisco (2-1), Arizona (3-0), and Los Angeles (3-0) in the NFC West. Worse? They play the 49ers and Rams over the next two weeks. And the cherry on top of all of it? Russell Wilson can't erase all the longs...

Paul got into another internet war with his least favorite people in the world - Tennessee Titans fans - after the Titans gave Houston the middle finger. Again. 1:12 - There's always going to be hurt feelings when a team skips town. But doesn't a team's history belong to the city they played in? Paul took a look back at the history of this across football and basketball. 24:59 - The Texans may hav...

There were lots of reasons to be disappointed in the Seahawks 33-30 OT loss to the Titans Sunday. But the biggest problem? It sure feels like a lot of the team's same problems still exist. There were lots of reasons to be disappointed in the Seahawks 33-30 OT loss to the Titans Sunday. But the biggest problem? It sure feels like a lot of the team's same problems still exist. 2:35 - We know Seattle...

- 1:25: We've dealt with a lot of NFC East football in primetime over the last couple of years. I used to think it was torture. Now? I think I enjoy it... - 9:00: The #Mariners probably cost themselves the playoffs this week - 13:49: Based on what I saw out of the #Titans against the #Cardinals, the #Seahawks should cruise Sunday - 20:47: And Paul explains why he hates Tennessee...

It's great to be back to blabbing after a couple of weeks off. Thanks for sticking with me! 2:26 - Aaron Rodgers deserved to be humbled after the way he carried himself this offseason. And while Russell Wilson was annoying himself in the weeks leading up to 2021, he once again delivered on the field. 7:31 - The Seahawks pass rush had Carson Wentz - who actually played well - running for his life o...
