In the Morning


Northwest Sports: In the Morning As the innings stretched on, yesterday's game started to feel like a postseason game. It had some classic postseason moments--the big game by the unknown (Miguel Cairo, who started a crucial double play from first and drove in the winning run) the closer who stretched out to keep his team in the ... »
Durant Endures Disses, Photoshopping Note: This post is by Todd Dybas Must be weird being Kevin Durant. Take Tuesday. Durant was named to the NBA All-Rookie First Team, as was teammate Jeff Green. No news there. But Durant was not an unanimous selection. Only Atlanta strongman Al Horford received 29 first-team votes from the ... »
Northwest Sports: In the Morning Lofa Tatupu's arrest for drunk driving came as a shock to fans and reporters who saw him as one of the good guys. Tatupu apologized late yesterday, saying "this will never happen again." (Though Kissing Suzy Kolber says he really should be apologizing for owning a Hyundai) Tacoma News ... »
My Plan in the Wake of the Tatupu Arrest: Fans Provide Rides for Drunk Athletes In the proud line that includes Dale Ellis, Koren Robinson, and Warren Moon, it's Lofa Tatupu getting a DUI. The deets:The arresting Kirkland police officer wrote that he saw a car driven by Tatupu speeding and changing lanes without signaling. When the officer caught up with him at a ... »
Northwest Sports: In the Morning Boy is it going bad for the M's. They finally get some offense--12 runs, more than they scored from May 6-10--but that's the day Bedard doesn't have good stuff.

Kauffman nee Royals Stadium is really nice--built around the same time as all the cookie-cutter multipurpose stadia, this one has the same concrete construction, but it also has the open walkways, the orientation ... »
Northwest Sports: In the Morning Depending on which blog you visit, the Mariners are either dead (Hotdog & Friends), five days from death (USS Mariner), or 11 games from death (Lookout Landing). Honestly, it's all a lot bit premature for a team that's just six games under .500 on May 7th. The 2007 Yankees ... »
Northwest Sports: In the Morning I have to say, that while last night's M's win was nice, it left me wanting more. It was like a great meal with a terrible dessert. The M’s go up 7-0 in the fourth, the Rangers bring in Ryan Rupe, mop-up reliever. Now, if you are a mop-up reliever for the ... »
Northwest Sports: In the Morning After a three-game sweep in New York, the M’s have the AL’s worst record. Who’s to blame? It's the troops, say media folks. Geoff Baker suggests that these Mariner players may be part of a "culture of losing." Steve Kelley: Don't blame McLaren: "The players are ... »
