It’s time for Hawk fans to get some good news

SEAHAWKS

The injury news the past few weeks has all been bad for Hawk fans.

So it's about time for some good news on that front. Here it is.

Shaun Alexander is practicing, and could – or should – play this week. Here are the stories from the Times, the P-I, the News Tribune and the Everett Herald.

Now back to reality. The other big injured Hawk, quarterback Matt Hasselbeck, is still a ways away from playing. That's part of the news in this Times' notebook. His backup and now starter Seneca Wallace, earned a contract extension thanks to his play.

The sickest member of the Hawks? Coach Mike Holmgren, who is sick of the whole injury mess, according to the News Tribune's Dave Boling. And Julian Peterson is looking forward to facing his former team.
