Condotta is actually one of the best in the business. Very good at what he does.

And Sherman's new house address was out before he said anything. He is moving into Jamal Crawford's old spot.

Doug Baldwin talks 'Game of Thrones,' compares teammates to characters in series



Which faction or camp would you align with if you found yourself in the Seven Kingdoms?

Baldwin: "I'd be with Daenerys - Khaleesi over there in Meereen. I'd be with her. First of all, she's gorgeous - no doubt about that. But no, she just embraces everything that I feel positively about. She feels like she's out to do justice. Sometimes it doesn't happen the way she plans it out, but her intention and her goal is to do justice, free the slaves, give everybody a choice to be free or whatever they want. At the same time she's very stern, she's very strong - stubborn, some people might say. I think her personality I can relate to the most."


You'll have to defend yourself in the world of Westeros, what would be your weapon of choice?

Baldwin: "I'd have to get a Valyrian steel sword. I'd have to get two of them, though - a long sword and short sword. I'd have to have some light armor, too, like Prince Oberyn - I like to move and be agile."


You've got your Valyrian steel sword, what would you name her?

Baldwin: "I really do like 'The Kingslayer.' I feel like that has negative connotations, but I do like 'The Kingslayer.'"


CB Richard Sherman is...

Baldwin: "Jaime Lannister. He's got the bravado, the confidence - the cockiness some would say. But he's very good at what he does. There's no doubting that. He's one of the best in the business with the sword, so he reminds me of Sherm."


QB Russell Wilson is...

Baldwin: "He reminds me of the dwarf, Tyrion Lannister. Well, Tyrion is probably a little taller than him [laughter]. No, it's not Tyrion, I just had to say that for jokes. I would say he reminds me of Ned Stark. Ned was always composed. He was always calm. He never really changed. He got fiery sometimes, but for the most part he was pretty even keeled. Russ reminds me of Ned Stark."


Coach Pete Carroll is...


Baldwin: "Pete would remind me of Tyrion. He's a jokester, likes to have fun, runs around like he's a little kid. But he's also a leader. Later on in the series we saw how he leads by a different example than everybody else. I admire that and feel like Pete does that too."


RB Marshawn Lynch is...

Baldwin: "The Hound, without a doubt. The Hound just does not care. Remember that scene at the end of season two at the Battle of Blackwater where he says some words to the King that I can't repeat? That to me is what Beast Mode is. He doesn't care. He's just going to go out and do his thing. He doesn't care what anybody else thinks or says."

Do y'all other hawk fans go to their forum in do the same shit? Serio questo ese
On a rare occasion here & there, but not every day like they do here. Their team is so boring they have to come in here to troll on a daily basis. It's quite pathetic. That's them whiners fans for you, though.

NFL Fantasy Talk – Seattle Seahawks Players To Draft In 2014

Going into the 2014 NFL season, it is important to know which players are going into a big season. Last season, the Seattle Seahawks capped off an impressive year by destroying the Denver Broncos and Peyton Manning in the Super Bowl. Since then, the Seahawks have remained as the favorite in the NFL to repeat as champions, which means that some of their players are due for an outstanding year. Due to this, it is essential that you draft the right players from the Seattle Seahawks to play on your fantasy team because they could be the player that makes or breaks your team.

1. QB Russell Wilson

Russell Wilson is one of the best quarterbacks in the NFL, and there are no signs of him slowing down. Wilson is a very unique type of quarterback. Unlike Tom Brady or Peyton Manning, he is able to escape from the pocket with ease; however, at the same time, unlike Colin Kaepernick or RGIII, he is able to play very well in the pocket as well, making him one of the most complete players and versatile threats in the NFL. Next season should be no different. The Seahawks don’t mess around with the read option or other college style plays. Most of the time, he plays in the pocket, but when he needs to run, he will. Because of this, you should draft him. NFL fantasy points are earned through passing yards and rushing yards, and if you are able to have a quarterback who has the ability to provide both of these types of yards every week, then you will be giving yourself a great opportunity to win all the time.

2. WR Percy Harvin

Last season, Percy Harvin was very limited in his playing time; however, he played when it counted. During the Super Bowl, which was his healthiest game of the year, he proved that he had a place on the team. In that game, he put up a ton of rushing yards, returned a kick for a touchdown, and caught some passes. This is more than enough to draft him. As a defensive player, it is very hard to tell what Harvin is going to do. He can burn you with his legs for a run or a pass, and because of this, he is one of the hardest players in the league to cover. Harvin has not even reached his full health yet, and when he does, you can expect him to put up a ton of yards with the Seahawks.

3. RB Marshawn Lynch

Marshawn Lynch doesn’t stop. For the last three seasons in a row, Lynch has managed over a 1,000 yards in each, and he has no stopping in sight. Next season, he will be playing with an improved offensive line, and should have much more room to play with. Aside from this, the Seahawks will not want Russell Wilson to get injured by taking short runs, so you can expect many of the goal line TD runs to now go to Lynch.

Justin Britt wins the vote at right tackle

A lot remains to be seen and some of you may change your mind by the end of preseason, but for now, rookie Justin Britt is the clear winner among the voters to earn the starting job at right tackle for the Seahawks.

The Sound-Off Saturday vote over the weekend was an either-or choice: Pick your starter at right tackle this season in the battle between second-year player Michael Bowie and Missouri rookie Justin Britt.

The second-round draft pick received 68 percent of the votes, more than double the votes Bowie received on ESPN.com, Twitter and Facebook.

Seahawks offensive line coach Tom Cable said last week that "it's on" in the competition between the two young offensive linemen to determine which man starts this season as the replacement for Breno Giacomini, who signed with the New York Jets as a free agent.

Many voters said they thought either player would be an upgrade for Giacomini, but he played well in the second half of last season after returning from a knee injury. Bowie started eight games as a rookie while Giacomini was out. Bowie struggled at times, but improved as his playing time increased.

Britt was a three-year starter at Missouri, playing both tackle positions, and All-SEC last season. He also was an undefeated high school wrestler. But starting on the offensive line as a rookie in the rugged NFL West division can be a difficult task, as Bowie learned a year ago.

A few voters who picked Britt also said Bowie should start a left guard instead of James Carpenter, but Cable said last week that both guard spots are set with Carpenter and J.R. Sweezy. Carpenter is in the best shape of his career, having lost 15 pounds in the offseason.

With Kevin Williams and Seahawks, less can certainly be more

When the time comes, defensive tackle Kevin Williams will generate consideration for the Hall of Fame.

Williams’ 11-year career with the Minnesota Vikings has been that good, his presence in the middle that felt. But the Seahawks aren’t getting that Kevin Williams.

When a player with big-time credentials joins a new team, the credentials often overshadow the realities. Williams is 33 years old, and his last season in Minnesota saw a drop in productivity. In other words, the sunset is forming on Williams’ career.

And yet the marriage between him and the Seahawks could be highly beneficial for both sides.

The Seahawks deploy a heavy rotation along the defensive line, and Williams should give them productive bursts when used in doses. He can play in run or pass-rushing situations, and people around the game think he should be a productive contributor if used part time.

According to Football Outsiders, Williams played 718 defensive snaps last season. Michael Bennett was the only Seahawks defensive lineman to play 600 defensive snaps a year ago. No lineman played more than 58 percent of Seattle’s defensive snaps.

Coach Pete Carroll had the conversation about being part of a rotation when he started talking to Williams during free agency, and Williams was receptive to the concept.

“I think if I’m playing 500 plays versus 700 plays at this age I can definitely still get after the quarterback,” Williams said.

Said Carroll: “I think it’s a real natural way for us to utilize his strengths. Obviously, he took to it because he’s here. He had other choices. He had other places to go and other deals to take.”

Williams could also address a want, if not exactly a need, for the Seahawks.

Seattle’s roster looks poised to make another deep playoff run, but the Seahawks took hits along the defensive line. Gone from last year’s team are defensive linemen Chris Clemons, Red Bryant and Clinton McDonald.

In their place come a wave of young players with little experience: Jesse Williams and Greg Scruggs didn’t play last season because of injuries, and Jordan Hill played only a small role.

It’s worth remembering that Williams’ stature doesn’t guarantee him a spot on the roster. Veteran cornerback Antoine Winfield taught us that lesson a year ago.

Still, Carroll praised Williams for his work ethic and leadership, and he could also give the defensive line’s second unit some stability. While last year was his worst statistical season, a part-time role could keep him fresh and therefore more effective.

“The rotation is key,” said Louis Riddick, a former NFL scout and ESPN analyst. “He won’t be nearly as effective without it at this point in his career, and he gives them size, length, a veteran hungry for team success.”

Just think back to a year ago when McDonald played only 50 percent of Seattle’s snaps but was vital to the defense’s success as a part-time pass-rusher.

About a month ago, Williams looked at stats that showed his snap count from last season and the snap counts from the Seahawks’ defensive linemen. By joining the Seahawks, Williams has accepted a new reality at a late stage in his career.

“It’s an awesome chance to get in and play a limited number of snaps and maximize the ability I have,” Williams said.

No ones going to run him out of town. Many of the sports players have homes around the city, its not unknown knowledge. Many of the Sonics lived around downtown and would come down to the car wash all the time. I saw KJ at Southcenter the other day...i could have gone up to him and harassed him but i understand these guys have lived to run too.

Sherman is a superstar, his location wasnt going to be concealed for very long regardless of what Bob wrote.

I dunno, you're right. but what did he have to gain by it? its rude and inconsiderate to publish celebrity addresses and you just don't do it. so he basically made himself look like a dick, hurt the seattletimes access to the seahawks since sherman is boycotting them now, and alienated fans who thought this was a dick move and won't support the times

Any reporter with common sense just doesn't do stuff like this, so there must be some kind of vendetta. And I've long suspected the seattletimes hates sports. They celebrated the sonics departure, they were against safeco and qwest field, they were against the sonics coming back, they were anti marshawn lynch, they're constantly bashing the mariners. Just add this sherman thing to the long list of offenses
