Cougars Have New Opponent

The new covid has put a damper 

on the winter sports news,came

out the Washington State Cougars 

have a new opponent in the Sun

Bowl on New Year's Eve. 

After the Miami Hurricanes bowed

out of the Sun Bowl because of

Covid they will take on Central 

Michigan. Good news for Cougar

fans.

Other covid related news the

Washington Huskies  women's 

basketball team's  games this

week are canceled.

Men's basketball the Huskies take

on the Cougars Wednesday night

in Pullman. We will  see how things

go in this game. The Cougars should 

be favored in this one. The Huskies 

have struggled shooting especially 

In 3pt shots. They win the game it

will  likely come from their defense.

Seahawks Lose 25-24

The Seahawks were ahead for much 

of the game however the Chicago Bears were able to come back to win

in the 4th quarter. They went for the two point conversion which the made. 

Former Seahawks tight end Jimmy 

Graham scored the touchdown to

get the Bears chance to win.

Rashaad Penny had another good

game running the ball going over 

hundred yards.

Why the Seahawks lost only made three third downs out of ten. Also

the Bears had the ball just over 38 minutes.

The Seahawks now 5-10 with two 

games to go. The off-season will see

changes for sure.

Seahawks and Bears

Today the  Seahawks are at home 

taking on the Chicago Bears. It is

one of  those  rare years where

this game is meaningless as neither 

team is going  to the playoffs.

For the  players they will play for next

year whether they will be a Seahawk,

or playing elsewhere or not at all.

Not sure about the  coaches,  I am sure 

there will be some gone as well.  The 

Seahawks will look to rebuild. The trouble 

is they have no first round pick and limit

of picks. I am  sure  they will look at adding 

more picks as well as adding free agents 

whether  veterans or those out of  college.

I am sure there will be talk of  trading Russell 

Wilson. Actually the media is already talking 

about it. Rebuilding makes sense about a

trade at quarterback. On the other hand to

retool is a other story.  Certainly the off-season

will be  interesting. 

Keep you up to date here and one man's

opinion.  Go Hawks!

Merry Christmas and Forward

We have the Christmas Day which I wish
you all the best. HO HO HO!

Look forward to 2022 and success in 

sports here in the northwest.

Baseball get over the lockout quickly

and the Mariners get additional help

in starting pitching and offense. Wish

Kyle Seager the best wherever he lands.

The Seahawks have to rebuild. Most

positions need improvement. I am sure

some coaching changes will occur to

whether at head coach or not.

Washington Huskies football team 

we hope Kalen DeBoer and his group

can succeed. 

Washington State Cougars football

have a good season coming up too.

Washington Huskies basketball improve

with the start of Pac-12 action. Same

goes for the Cougars.

Gonzaga finally win a national championship.

The Kraken have a better rest of the season

than it has started out.

If I have forgotten something let me know!

The Kraken

You may wondering about the Kraken
this holiday season.

They have had several games cancelled

because of covid. The NHL has cancelled

all games until after Christmas. They

will resume action on December 27.

Having some time off might help the 

Kraken the rest of the season. At least

we hope so anyway. 

I hope you are having a good holiday

season otherwise. Merry Christmas!

Seahawks Loss Tuesday Night

The Seattle Seahawks lost to the 

LA Rams Tuesday night 20-10. The game was close in the first half 

when both teams kicked field

goals. 

The Seahawks had chance to win before a couple crucial penalties

cost them the game.

The Seahawks are out of the playoffs.

The likelihood was remote they would

anyway. The Seahawks have a number

of weaknesses which is why they are

playing how they are.

Cooper Kupp was the difference in the game catching nine passes for two 

touchdowns. Kupp is having a great

season for the Rams.

Rashard Penny got off to a good start going for some tough yardage getting 39 yards on 11 carries. DeeJay Dallas had eight carries for 41 yards. Penny stay healthy for the remaining of the season could bring him back.

Alex Collins will be back next week coming off the covid list. News came 

out Wednesday tight end Will Dissly is going onto the covid list. Have to see 

who goes on and who goes off though

doesn't really matter since the season 

is over for the Seahawks. Too bad they 

don't have a top draft pick which goes

to the New York Jets in the Jamaal

Adams trade. At least they will have 

a high second rounder. We get back

to that after the season.

Russell Wilson didn't have a good

game completing 17 of 31 for 156

yards and an interception; no TD's.

The defense did a good job in the 

first half against the run though

the Rams 123 yards total; more

than the Seahawks 80 yards. The 

Rams though passed for 209 yards compared to Seahawks 159.

The Rams had the ball just over ten

more minutes than the Seahawks. I 

am sure the penalties against Seattle

was the reason. Again the Seahawks

offense struggled making only 3 of

11 on third down while Rams were

6 of 12. The Seahawks will need to

improve in that area to have a chance.

The Seahawks will play the Chicago

Bears next Sunday at home. The Seahawks should have a good shot

to win that game with the 12s behind

them. Go Hawks!

Baseball Lockout

It is hard to  know right  now  how

Long the baseball ⚾️ lockout will 

be. Hopefully  both sides will want

it over soon.

I  heard former Mariner and hall of

famer Edgar Martinez on local

sports radio on Monday the players,  

the owners and fans all have lost so far.

I  know  there are  issues  to fix, however,

both sides  need to  compromise. Let's 

get back to  hot stove league.

If the lockout isn't over until  spring 

training than free agents likely won't 

get as much money and trades will be 

hard to come by. Let  it be as close 

to being normal  can be.
