Holy cow. First time listening to Pete Carroll on one of these things. He is a complete 180 from what a coach typically is. Informative, really relishes the emotion and victory, talks about the intricate details. I love it.
For me, as a fan of both the Hawks and Norton, this is such a treat.

BUT!
I agree, you can't put numerical values on that shit. Never could, never will.
Nice that TJack gets some success and mention on these things.
My other favorite player, aside from Marshawn Lynch. I'm happy for Alex, he looks like he's playing boring as hell... but wait until his team is behind. They're a hungry team, with a hungry coach and QB to boot. This season is great :0190l:

Funny thing. You don't really have too much control over what your face looks like. I mean, you do with plastic surgery... but...
You DO have control over your personality, your character.
I don't know about anybody else, but I'm tired of turning on the TV and seeing assholes and rooting for...
I became seriously interested in football in the recent years, and have been introduced to both Pete Carroll and Jim Harbaugh, the Niners being the first team I followed. After seeing both coaches, and being fans of both teams, I would rather have Pete Carroll as my coach. I didn't know the...
Wow... The reasons the 49ers have to hate the Seahawks are plain silly.
Can't say that about the vice versa. There's some pretty legitimate reasons to hate the 49ers.
