Both of my hamstrings are still intact, which made Wednesday’s Seahawks.com Media Combine a success in my book. I wish I could say the same for all of the participants (sorry, Shaun Scott of the Issaquah Reporter), but for the most part, the second annual media combine was a success.

For the second straight year, members of the local media took part in the media combine at the Virginia Mason Athletic Complex, providing both an enjoyable time and also a good reminder of how large the gap is between elite athletes and us mere mortals.

Members of the local media took part in several of the same drills that top draft prospects will go through next week in Indianapolis at the NFL Scouting Combine—though with far less impressive results—the 40-yard dash, vertical jump, broad jump, 3-cone drill, bench press, gauntlet drill and the Pearson Cognitive Assessment (similar to the Wonderlic test given to prospects). You can find a full list of results here.

Fortunately (or is it unfortunately?) there were fewer spills in the 40-yard dash than in last year’s event—redemption for KJR’s Matt Mikolas, who crashed in the 40 last year—but Scott’s double hamstring injury notwithstanding, a good time was had by all.
