SD Huesca have struggled to cope with the demands of La Liga this season and are currently rooted to the bottom of the table. The Aragonese outfit suffered a shocking defeat to Alcoyano in the Copa del Rey earlier this week and are in desperate need of a league victory. Real Betis have also been fairly inconsistent over the past few months and find themselves in 11th place in the La Liga standings....

Ashen Winds centers upon “the rage of Captain Flameheart” as he infects his most loyal followers with a curse that transforms them into Ashen Lords. Players are tasked with overthrowing this growing power, though the flaming skulls of vanquished lords can also be used to devastating effect. RELATED: Sea of Thieves Raises $76,000 for Charity Ashen Lords have powerful summoning abilities; they can conjure ash and flame tornados to blind players, while their offensive skills can also outright incinerate opponents....

Sea of Thieves has seen a rise in popularity recently, and the beginning of summer this year saw over 3 million players in one month. A new update for Sea of Thieves recently introduced some player-requested elements like the Black Market, dogs, and even more quests. Over 15 million people have played the game since launch, yet some people will just not be fans, and Twitch streamer Hitbotc’s mother-in-law is one of them....

The Seahawks were beaten 24-22 by the Dallas Cowboys in Saturday’s wildcard clash, a result that led to criticism of Seattle’s offensive game plan. Seattle relied heavily on the run game despite Dallas shutting it down. This sparked harsh criticism of Schottenheimer. Carroll addressed that criticism in a radio appearance on 710 ESPN in Seattle on Monday. “That’s a bunch of garbage,” Carroll said. “What a terrific football season we had....

Thomas played through the NFC Championship game and Super Bowl XLIX with a torn labrum and separated shoulder. Though the surgery has yet to be scheduled, he will likely miss six to eight months. Thomas, however, is expected to be 100 percent by the beginning of training camp. Thomas is just one of three Seahawks who finished the 2014 season by playing through significant injuries. Safety Kam Chancellor played with a torn MCL and cornerback Richard Sherman could require Tommy John surgery to repair his left elbow....

In a note addressed “Dear World” posted on his Twitter account, Bennett said he was leaving the T-Mobile Arena to return to his hotel when he and “several hundred” others in the area heard what sounded like gunshots and began to run for safety. The Seattle Seahawks defensive lineman says he is considering filing a civil rights lawsuit after being detained by Las Vegas police. Bennett claimed a police officer in the area stopped him and ordered him to get on the ground, then put a gun to his head and explicitly threatened to shoot him if he moved....

The injury Rice deals a severe blow to the offense of a Seattle team holding the best record in the NFC through eight weeks. However, the player whose injury had originally left the Seahawks short-handed back in July — receiver/runner/kick returner Percy Harvin — might be available as soon as Sunday, when they play at home against Tampa Bay. Harvin practiced twice last week, his first work with the team since his hip surgery in late July....

Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Tyler Lockett tweeted on Sunday, hoping the NFL Pro Bowl would replicate the NBA All-Star game’s model. Lockett suggested the NFL implemented donating $100K to a charity of choice for the winning team of each quarter. Given how successful the NBA All-Star game is for the association, it wouldn’t hurt for the NFL to look at adopting some of their models. The NFL Pro Bowl could learn a lot from the NBA All-Star game’s donation format Lockett’s idea is well-thought-out and one the league should strongly consider looking into....

The bad news for the Seahawks: Richard Sherman suffered what was feared to be a significant Achilles injury. The star cornerback was one of multiple Seattle players banged up Thursday night. Sherman went down in the second half of what felt like a bittersweet win for Seattle, which beat Arizona despite being out-gained by two total yards, 290-288. Russell Wilson, who entered Week 10 leading the NFC in passing yards and fourth-quarter passer rating, again was the hero for Seahawks....

The Seahawks avoided elimination in Week 17 with a convincing 23-6 win over the Jets to snap their three-game losing skid. In the win, Seattle’s defense stepped up when it mattered most, holding the Jets to 279 total yards. More important, they won the turnover battle (3-0) and got off the field on third down, holding the Jets to a 31-percent third-down conversion rate (four-of-13). On offense, Geno Smith took care of the football, posting a 2:0 TD-to-INT ratio, while rookie Kenneth Walker rushed for 133 yards on 5....

During a segment on Premiere Radio Network’s The Sean Hannity Show, Hannity accused Fox News of sampling too many Democrats for their polls. “New York Times-Sienna College poll shows Trump in a dead heat in battleground states, matched up against the three leading Democratic candidates, Biden, Sanders and Warren,” he said. “And I always say, and I believe—Trump doesn’t poll well, and I don’t know what’s up with the Fox poll....

Walensky spoke to MSNBC’s Ari Melber and was shown a clip of Hannity discussing COVID-19 vaccines and telling his audience that “the science shows the vaccine will not necessarily protect you. It’s not protecting many people.” The CDC director pointed to the fact that most current hospitalizations with COVID are unvaccinated people and that there are more than 85 million people in the U.S. eligible to be vaccinated but who have not been....

The Saints coach shot down any rumors that the organization is looking for a new quarterback. “Yeah, it’s not that time. … We’re not interested in moving on from Drew Brees,” Payton said to Fox Sports. “He’s going to be a part of our next championship.” The 2014 season wasn’t as solid for Brees as his other seasons with the Saints. He threw for 4,952 yards with 33 touchdowns but had 17 interceptions....

“National leadership, frankly, has been caught napping, and so there are other leaders, other organizations who have risen up and who are speaking out,” news commentator and radio host Roland Martin told Newsweek. “The establishment always has fear because they don’t want to lose power.” Unrest continues to roll across the country since the death of George Floyd, a Black man, in police custody in Minneapolis in late May, sending nationwide shockwaves as far away as the predominantly white Pacific Northwest....

The 60-year-old was one of five people killed when a helicopter they were travelling in appeared to lose control shortly after taking off from the King Power Stadium following last Saturday’s 1-1 draw with West Ham. Demarai Gray’s solitary goal was enough to give the Foxes maximum points at the Cardiff City Stadium and goalkeeper Schmeichel cited their late owner’s family as the inspiration for their performance. “I feel proud,” the Dane told Sky Sports....

For business schools looking for a few good case studies in damage control, last week was about as good as it gets. One was Swedish pharmaceuticals company Astra USA, a maker of asthma medications and the popular anesthetic Xylocaine. When Business Week published tales of wide-ranging abuse at Astra’s American subsidiary, outside Boston, the company quickly faced up to the problem and suspended its U.S. chief executive, along with two top lieutenants....

“Americans must put a president in the White House come January, 2021, who will understand that public health should not be guided by partisan politics,” The Lancet editorial board stated on its website in an article slated for the May 16 issue of the journal. “The Trump administration’s further erosion of the CDC will harm global cooperation in science and public health, as it is trying to do by defunding WHO....
