    How to get out of the funk?

    I deal with the funk by going to Spring Training next month. I have no expectations for the M's, so I can just enjoy baseball as the zen experience it is meant to be.

    Things That Sucks Most About That Loss

    My Pats fan friends have been surprisingly cool. I think they all know that the game was lost for them before that bad play was called. None of them are talking about Tom Brady's MVP numbers or his four touchdown passes. All they're saying is, "Man, sure am glad Seahawks ran that stupid play."...

    Russell Wilson became Donovan McNabb

    Okay, Eagles fan here. I'm only a member of .Net because my wife grew up in SEA. Russell didn't throw up from stress in the Superb Owl. If Russell was trailing by 10 points with plenty of time in the fourth, he wouldn't languidly eat up most of the quarter on a touchdown drive to where they...

    Is anyone else backtracking about the "worst call ever"?

    What bugs me about it is when we had that set up, and the clock ticking, I went back to Baldwin saying how the team wanted Marshawn to win the MVP, and how all the talk this week was about Marshawn being the heart and soul of the team, and I thought, “This is perfect. What better way to end this...

    Bevell's explanation of the play call via espn Liz Mathews

    I hate the Dallas Cowboys, but back in the glory days they lost a game to the Eagles the same way. Crazy thing is, they had more time left, all four downs. They had Emmitt Smith, one of the greatest all-time running backs, but they decided to get cute. Pass was picked in the end zone and run...

    If we hand it off to Lynch and score...

    My wife, the lifelong Seahawks fan in the house, said if the game had ended with two-three Beast Mode runs at the end zone and the Pats had somehow made a goal line stand, it would be a much easier loss to take. In that scenario, the Pats just outplay us when it counts, and we lose to the better...

    Well it hurts a lot less than XL..

    My mind: Kearse's miracle catch on the back: "Team of destiny!" Beast plowing to the one-yard line: "We got this! We got this game!" Russell throws pick: "There is no God, and I hate the United States of America." I had my college Alma mater lose a shot at playing in the BCS Championship...

    Does Bevell stay or does he go? (ALL Bevell talk HERE)

    By the way, aren't we about to lose Quinn? Do we really want to lose an OC and DC in one fell swoop?

    Am I the only one that thinks Prisco is a complete joke?

    I saw a God in a clip on the NFL app in my Apple TV who went on a rant about how mediocre the SEA offense is, and blah-blah-blah. At first, he was infuriating, but then I realized how scripted he sounded, and when hs buddy came back with a very scripted pro-SEA rant, it was clear taht they were...

    Went to a movie last night...

    Perhaps there needs to be a thread comparing Seahawks to popular movie scenes and characters. I'm an old movie geek with an extensive catalog of film in my head, both great and not so great. I'm always making movie references, much to the chagrin of my wife, the true Seahakws fan (born and...

    Poll: If you were Sherman do you play?

    This may sound callous and perhaps a bit fan-centric selfish, but he can have someone videotape his child’s birth. He's having a boy. Think about it, men of this board. Which story would you rather tell in school? “My Dad, the best corner in the world, skipped playing in the Super Bowl to watch...

    Boomer Esiason Sherman should be fined

    I think I still have my Topps Boomer Esiason rookie card somewhere. I took it to a sports memorabilia collector. He said he'd take it off my hands, and in exchange, he ripped a Brian Bosworth card in two and gave me the lower half. Even then, I couldn't make the exchange without throwing in a...

    Marshawn may be that fuel the send the Seahawks over the top

    Three of the Pats four losses were against three of the top eight mobile quarterbacks. Their worse loss came against a mobile quarterback in Alex Smith and the 7th ranked defense in KC. Two things the Pats had trouble with, actually - top ranked D and mobile QB. SEA has #1 in both categories.
