Every major city seems to have had their time in the light. New York, Miami, Los Angeles... Whoever. But Seattle? SEATTLE!?? Them dudes from South Alaska ?? Them coffee drinkin dudes in that rainy ass city???? Yeah, I guess we them dudes. We had a basketball team once that won one back in the day, but it was soo long ago, most people don't even remember. The Mariners? Yeah they was hott too once. Won all those games that one year. Got in the playoffs and laid an egg. Smfh. Aye bro but our women's hoop team is nice, and yall ain't seein us in soccer!! SMFH!!

Only Seattleites and those in the surrounding areas know what its like to be from "The 6". We rep our teams harder then most cities out there. We haven't really got much return back on that investment, but we'll keep pulling for them till someone takes them away from us (even that might not stop some). In a city that's mostly famous for grunge rock, lattes and big booty one hit wonders, we've stood by our teams while others are working on their third, fourth, and some even fifth championships. Why not us? We deserve it right? My answer, yes we do. Our Hawks are about to punch that ticket and that elusive championship we've been waiting for will finally be ours. After that, we'll be pumping them out one after the other right? Yeah. Yeah we will. Baby steps first my friend.

A few days ago an article came out about Russell, his father, and their relationship. There was this this quote that has been running through my mind.

"He said when he was young, his father used to say, Why not you, Russ? Why not you?"

That quote is so beautiful in the context of just us as Seattle Seahawks fans and Seattle Sports fans in general! As our team is out there at the VMAC preparing to take greatness, after looking it in the face the last two seasons, and the building that John Schneider, and Pete Carroll and everyone else in that front office, down to the scouts, and all the way down to the interns. All of this has been building up since that January day in 2010, when Pete Carroll stood at the podium and got me hyped to go run through a brick wall for the man, this was just off of a press conference mind you.

The vision and the execution of this vision have been such a treat to watch. We even had a last hoorah with Hasselbeck! IMO Pete might be the best coach we've ever had, IN MY EYES. I've had fun even in 2011 with Tarvaris as QB, that season was fun to me to see the team grow and become what it is now.

What is this team now? A dynasty, and on Sunday, and February 2nd it will be realized because... Why not us?
