A letter recently sent to Seahawks season ticket holders by the team listed a number of reasons to get excited about the upcoming season, but failed to mention Seattle's star quarterback. A lot is being made of the snub, but is it really that big of a deal? The team's other future Hall-of-Famer Bobby Wagner wasn't mentioned either and that doesn't seem to be bothering anyone. Maybe we should all just calm down. Breaking news: The NHL has signed a seven-year broadcast deal with ESPN. Like it or not, the TV network still matters in the sports world, and this is huge for the league and the sport of hockey. Good news in the world of basketball, former Seattle Storm star Lauren Jackson has been named a finalist for the Basketball Hall of Fame. The bad basketball news: Meyers Leonard appeared to use an anti-Semitic slur during a Twitch stream. Texts grade the show by texting 49451. Softy drops in before the afternoon show.
