I remember asking assistant coach Mo Cheeks, what’s harder to do? Workout after practice or before?? I only asked cuz by time I would get to the gym, Russ was already done in the morning and I usually got mine in after practice. Mo like, “coming in before practice is probably harder”…since then, it’s been my routine….a lot of people looked at the emotions on the court and thought Russ was loud, nah to me, he was quiet and methodical. He lead by example and once the lights were bright, he let everything out and experienced pure freedom. It was inspiring as his teammate and everywhere I went, I seen it inspire people from all walks of life, crazy thing is, he didn’t say much, he just showed up. For 18 years. This basketball life is sacred to us as professionals, what we put into that court means everything. Some of us wish we could go back and do things with a little more intent and some can just wipe their hands and be satisfied with the time spent. Who u gonna be? We know what zero was on…keep inspiring in the next phase of life champ. I don’t care what happens, can’t erase what it was…The first YNs, finals run in our early 20s, all star games, seeing each other get injured and bounce back, the bus rides, plane rides, card games, jokes and arguments, the whole thing, memorable!! …to the whole Westbrook family, Nina, the kids, mama Westbrook, big Russ, Ray, Donnell, everybody from luezinger high and ucla and many more that I’m forgettin, much love and Congratulations on a iconic career.
Idaho now is known for producing potatoes and first round tight ends. The first tight ends to go in the past two drafts - Kenyon Saddiq this year, Colston Loveland last year - both are from Idaho.
Seahawks are bringing back WR Rashid Shaheed on a three-year, $51 million deal that includes $34.7 million guaranteed, per Drew Rosenhaus and Robert Bailey.

With 96 tackles and 3.5 sacks as a first-year starter, Thomas cashes in with a deal done by agent Jay Courie of @mgcsports.
The New England Patriots are in a position to become one of the most unlikely Super Bowl Champs considering where they were to start the season. Sure, their schedule was one of the easiest to get there but you play the schedule you’re given. Vrabel found a way to turn this team from two 4-13 seasons into 14-3 and the #1 seed in the AFC.
With all that being said, the Seahawks will win this easily and the Patriots will lose their only chance at the Lombardi unless they get major help in the future. 2021 Cincinnati Bengals 2.0.
Seahawks 28
Patriots 10
Happy Super Bowl Sunday!
#Seahawks GM John Schneider has hit on an endless string of 1st and 2nd rounders and Charles Cross is a great example. The executive of the year candidate has this team rolling.
