WOOOHOOOOOOO!!! 20 years a Hawks fan, and I'm finally tasting the championship punch with my team! Hafta say, it's better than sex!!! :7

To a football fanatic, there are two seasons... football season and waiting for football season. RichM and Broom can talk some football. Now I hafta wait two weeks?!?!?!? What am I gonna do till then? Oh yeah... drive a truck and look for Superbowl tix! :7 :7 :7 :7 :7

Better than sex? Dude...

Your boys put on quite a show last night. If it was played today it would be hard to bet against them. But 2 weeks break and the neutral field should be the great equalizer.

I've been a Seahawks fan since they came into the league. This is truly an awesome time. GO SEAHAWKS!!!!

Seattle is going to win the superbowl. I know this because none of my teams made the playoffs that I got to watch. I like Green Bay bc I like Bart Starr. I like Oakland bc I like George Blanda. I like Houston bc I'm a native Houstonian. I like K.C. bc I like Hank Schramm and I like Dallas bc I like Tom Landry. Yes, I know those are all not current but those are the teams I like now and the reasons. Anyway, 2 weekends ago I got to watch the games. Of the 4 games, the team I slightly prefer lost all 4 times. Yesterday, of the 2 games, the team I slightly prefer lost both games. If I had to choose I would slightly prefer Pittsburgh so Seattle is going to win.

Sounds like a logical prediction. I understand why you would want to hang on to the past. Those are guys who would'nt be pounding their chests, giving a simulated moon to the fans in attendance, or whereing 75# of jewelery.

Why do 2 guys who live in Michigan root for the Seahawks. You would think they would root for the "once mighty.once feared,once powerfull" as Howard Cossel used to say, Detroit Lions. I lived in Taylor Mi for a short stretch and went to Lions games. Back then they were one tough football team.

 

[highway star]

Rich, if I'm one of the Mich guys you refer to, I'm actually pulling for the Steelers. It is certainly tough to try to be a Lions fan. I think that their next claim to fame will be that they are the only team to never have been in a super bowl. I hope I'm wrong.

After looking back at the thread, I see Scott is the other Michigander you were talking about.

 

[RichM]

The Hawk is the head rooter for the SeaHawks,believe he is out of Dearborn Heights.

 

[X1_SRH]

I lived in the Seattle area during the Zorn / Largent era. (I would have loved to have seen those guys go to the big show) - and still my "Hawks" roots run deep. I spent a lot of time at the Kingdome!!

 

[Tennesseahawk]

Scott, I envy you! Zorn was, and is, my hero. I'd like to see him as a head coach.

I'll tell ya... it's been as hard being a Hawks fan as it is a Lions fan. I'd love to see the Lions do well, but that's not happening while Ford owns em. Ford isn't serious about them... not when he picks no-names to coach (except Mariucci). What can I say about not being a Lions fan? Billy Sims was the only good one when I was 10 and went with the Hawks. And I'm not running back material. Tells you how old I am LOL

I'll be jumping up and down when the Lions make it too (Old man Ford has to die someday). But I'm always a Hawks fan first! (and a Saints fan second) LOL

It takes a whole team, not just one great player. Sanders was awesome but he could'nt do it all. There are still those who say Harrington could be a great quarterback, but without consistant protection it won't happen in Detroit.

 

[Tennesseahawk]

Harrington needs a good qb coach. He never got to learn under a good veteran. But ultimately, you're right. He doesn't have an offensive line, which hurts the running game too.
