Today, however, deserves a post. Today, the Seattle Seahawks placed left tackle Walter Jones on the injured reserve.

I actually thought the Seahawks had a chance to win last Sunday against the Cardinals.

Several sources are reporting that Lofa Tatupu suffered a torn pectoral muscle against the Cardinals earlier this afternoon and will miss the remainder of the season. The injury is quite serious and will require surgery to repair.

Maybe it is blind optimism from a homer, desperate for a victory after suffering a crushing loss the night before – the Huskies gave up a fifty-yard pass with seconds to go and found a way to lose in Tempe.

Owen Schmitt is a crazy man.
Just ask the equipment managers at West Virginia who consistently replaced Schmitt’s steel-reinforced facemasks.
