It just so happened this is how the schedule worked out. Were fortunate we have an opportunity to practice out here.Quinn said the makeup of the current team also contributed to the decision to practice in Seattle.Not every team, I think you would bring out here to have the right mindset to reset and go right to it, Quinn said.
