Seahawks start post-Russell Wilson era

Seahawks start post-Russell Wilson era

The Seattle Seahawks had to have a backup plan. You don’t just trade a future Hall of Fame quarterback like Russell Wilson and not have the next step mapped out. You don’t ship Wilson, in his prime, and go into the season with Drew Lock as his replacement. The Seahawks disagree. For many years the Seahawks have been proudly unconventional. They wanted to establish the run when they had Wilson, DK Metcalf and Tyler Lockett in the passing game. They’d make draft picks that would stun the league…. Source link

Powell clarified: “It’s not our intended outcome.” The Fed chief’s remarks on Wednesday stand in contrast to his commentary from early May, when… Source link

How Cincinnati Reds slid to a historically bad start

How Cincinnati Reds slid to a historically bad start

If you’ve looked at the MLB standings recently, the line most likely to cause a double take belongs to the Cincinnati Reds.

And that was after a weekend series triumph that brought them up almost exponentially from 3 and finally eased the ignominy of having fewer 2022 wins than the local football team that hadn’t played since February. So they stand at 5-23. Five wins in 28 games. It looks like a typo. As… Source link
