Hasselbeck, the Seahawks, BYU, and other thoughts

First off, some Tuesday morning links:

(This is a pretty neat article about a high school football player in Washington and his unique circumstances. This just happens to be the high school I graduated from as well, so it’s of particular interest.)

(Seahawks coach Mike Holmgren remains optimistic despite 1-4 start)
+
http://seattletimes.nwsource.com/html/seahawks/2008263640_hawk140.html
(Well, this isn’t good. So much for Matt Hasselbeck’s bulging disk not being a problem. Blah! I suppose there wasn’t much that could have been done. He needed to play as much as possible. It just sucks really bad obviously that now he’s having knee problems because of it)

(When you get turned down by the Detroit Lions, I think it’s best to just call it a career. Are the Redskins really THIS desperate? Apparently so.)
+
http://blog.seattletimes.nwsource.com/seahawks/2008/10/13/branching_out_1.html
(Good to know WR Deion Branch will be back for Sunday’s game at Tampa. Although without Hasselbeck, I’m not sure how that will work out.)

(Former Seattle Sonic guard Gary Payton wants to help bring another NBA team to Seattle. James Donaldson, another former Sonic who Payton wanted to team up with, apparently isn’t interested and has no faith in the project working anyway. At least Payton isn’t giving up though.)

(An optimistic blog from Seattle Times Bob Condotta regarding the state of the Washington Huskies basketball program)

(All I’ve been hearing about is that Lane Kiffin will replace Tyrone Willingham. ESPN’s Pat Forde has a different idea though. I’d be even more for this suggestion.)
