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.

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.

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

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!!

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.

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.
