ATHTERMAF
Yes, the Mariner articles will be few and far between until the World Series is done. It gives me a little less to work with until I slip into a Baseball Reference frenzy and dig up a bunch of stuff, which I'm sure will eventually happen. Until then, we trudge forth...
SEAHAWKS
As you might expect, there's a ton of articles on the yesterday's Seahawks affair. Here's two articles on Koren Robinson, for instance. I like Holmgren's quote on the taunting call, though: "I mean, goodness gracious. I helped write the rule. I didn't agree with (the call) at all. I don't know what would have happened, but we certainly would have been in better field position." Then there's a couple from the beat writers. I could say something more about the game, but I think I'd just be repeating the start of my game post from earlier, which is below. Don't forget Jeremy's post as well.
SONICS
The Jazz whooped the Sonics 100-84 in Spokane, under the watchful eye of John Stockton. I noticed two things visually on the highlight reel. One, Luke Ridnour cut down the mop top. Two, the Jazz "streamlined" their uniforms a bit. Now the colors are just shades of blue; it looks like navy blue with sky blue. As for the on-the-floor stuff, it is the preseason and all, and nobody really gives a crap, but the Sonics got whooped tonight, and they've been whooped a few times this preseason. Of course, Rashard Lewis and Ron Murray were out of the lineup tonight, so there's no way that helps. Given the two injuries, this allowed Vlad Radmanovic to step up and seize the opportunity. He was 2-for-11 from the floor against Utah on Sunday night. Ugh.
HOCKEY
-- Chris Durand of the Seattle Thunderbirds got himself a hat trick and 17-year-old Gavin McHale stopped 19 of 20 shots in his first WHL start, a 5-1 win over Prince George. Seattle is now one point behind Everett for first place in the WHL's US Division.
-- The Hamilton Bulldogs beat the Manitoba Moose 4-3 to snap Manitoba's 3-game season-opening win streak. Jason King scored his 7th goal of the season (four games), which leads the league. He also had one assist. The Moose had killed off six penalties until the Bulldogs got the winner just inside the six-minute mark of the third period.
Next: Vancouver at Portland (Wednesday), Seattle at Tri City (Friday), Everett at Prince George (Friday), Edmonton at Manitoba (Friday), Butte at Puget Sound (Friday)
Have a jolly Monday, o enlightened Sports and B's readers!
