Quick Hits: 3 Missed FG, 2 Wins, and 1 Pathetic D
A brief collection of thoughts from Turkey Weekend, 2005.
1. I'm glad my name isn't Feely. With the NY Giants kicker missing three FG which would have given his team a tough road win, the Seahawks escaped with a victory and remained on top of the NFC at 9-2. Game ball goes to Joe Jurevicius, who hauled in 8 passes for 137 yards and two TD. And his name isn't Feely either.
2. My beloved Washington Huskies finished the football season with two wins. On the positive side, that's a 100% improvement over last year. On the negative side, two wins sucks. Let's hope Jake Locker and J.R. Hasty are the studs everybody seems to think they are.
3. "Go ahead, take the lane." That's what my friends and I used to say to each other when we faced a bad defense in our high school baseketball playing days. Seems like the Sonics were saying this all day Saturday to the New Orleans Hornets. I walked out of Key Arena that afternoon wondering how Speedy Claxton was so good and the Sonics were so bad.
4. How good is the 2005-2006 Husky basketball team? We'll find out December 4, when the Dawgs host Gonzaga in Seattle.
5. How good is Martell Webster? We'll know just as soon as Nate McMillan gives him some meaningful minutes. Looking up and down the Blazers roster, it's hard to imagine there's a better shooter on the team. But Nate is a defense-first kinda guy, so it'll probably be a while before the rookie gets to display his game in the Rose City.
6. Kenji Jojima. This guy can only help the beleaguered Mariners. Maybe he can pitch too...
