cing what quite possibly could be reality.

Brace yourself 12th man.

Maybe the Seattle Seahawks rain of supremacy in the NFC West is over. Maybe this team’s so called “window” is just cracked open a bit. Fans have gotten so used to this, year in and year out. Winning records, Pro Bowlers at the skill positions, playoff victories, and division championship banners. Let’s face it; this is the National Football League. Teams win super bowl’s one year, only to completely miss the post-season the next year. When putting it in perspective, the Seahawks have been very fortunate. That fortune might be running out.

So as you probably know by now, week 4 is the Seahawks bye week. Your fantasy football team will be defined by your play when you have star players on their bye week. Hopefully you planned for bye weeks when you drafted your team and are able to just substitute in players from your bench without having to pick up any players off waivers or free agency. However, if you did not plan for bye weeks, here are a few things you can do.

There was not much to cheer for as the Mariners tallied another loss after J.J. Putz gave up 4 earned runs in the 9th inning, earning his fourth blown save of the season and ballooning his ERA to 5.60. However, fans could leave the game with some optimism after seeing another electrifying, but familiarly short outing from Brandon Morrow.

Mariners fans experienced another failed experiment by Mastermind and GM Bill Bavasi on Sunday night, watching Carlos Silva get shelled by the Tigers for 7 ER in 2/3 of an inning. After receiving a 4 year, $48 million contract in December, Silva has been horrible recently. In his last six starts, Silva is 0-5 with an 11.00 ERA. Though he did show promise at the outset of the season, a player doesn't earn $14 million a year by showing potential. The thing is, all Silva has produced over his career has been potential and just as much disappointment. He has only had two winning seasons as a starter, and his last two years with the Minnesota Twins he had an ERA of 5.94 and 4.19 respectively. How does a player like this end up getting the second biggest free agent pitcher contract last offseason? Easy, Bill Bavasi. But Silva isn't the only one cashing in on Bavasi's shopping spree, overpaid players have littered the M's roster in recent years.

The Seattle Mariners once again lost on Memorial Day, and have now fallen to a sickly 18 games under .500.  This is not the start that both management and fans thought they would have t

If you have been watching the Mariners lately, you know that there is something wrong with this team. Many people say that they just need to shake up the roster in order to be successful. In my eyes, if you are wanting to shake up the roster, shake up the Front Office first. That way, the new players you bring in will be evaluated and acquired by new management, one who hopefully knows what they are doing.

Sonics Fans: Even though the NBA is trying to decimate our love for the league by reducing our pick to 4th instead of 2nd, don't fear.

The Sonics will most likely acquire either Jerryd Bayless (PG, Arizona) or Brook Lopez (C, Stanford). The Supes will not have much say in the matter though, as the Minnesota Timberwolves are most likely to take one of these two as well.

The Mariners won a great game today. The pitching kept the team in it, and
the hitting came through in the clutch. Overall, this is just what the
Mariners needed.

I attended the game today, and was surprised at many things. Mainly, I sat

Tomorrow (Tuesday, May 20th) at 5pm PST, Kevin Durant will have the honor of representing the Sonics at the NBA Draft Lottery. The Supes have a great chance of obtaining the number One overall selection (19.9% to be exact). Here's a look at what they may do if they get the #1 pick.

As much love as Seattle has given to Shaun Alexander (with the exemption of last year) I think it is time to part ways with the former MVP. Mo Morris is always a threat in the backfield however, he is more effective running short to medium routes and beating the safeties and/or linebackers with his speed and agility.

Word from Seahawks coaches in a Seattle Times article summing up the 2007 season was that Joe had been impressive and will make a push to make the team in 2008 regardless of who they draft. He is a huge target at 6'7" and could be a factor.

The Seattle Seahawks have, in my opinion, solidified there season run to the championship with a great win against the Washington Redskins.  The Redskins had played on pure emotion from the time their teammate died and it finally caught up to them.
