To All seahawks fans:
Im sick and tired of watching this crap go down on the road every sunday. We all wonder why the media beats this team up every sunday on the road.
This is BS.....

That's right. Turn your rage against other Hawks fans. That will make everything better.

Just ain't worth it anymore.

Interesting....didn't see "rage". I just know that we will see excuses across the board for this.
I do like how you just find a way to single me out in a thread I didn't start. Thanks! You are getting good at that. Why don't you attack the guy that started the thread?
So tell me, what good comes from a loss like this? Half the problem we have is our fan base just embraces mediocrity.
volsunghawk wrote:Yeah, I singled you out. You deserved it. This is the second loss where I've seen you cast aspersions on people who DARE to have a positive outlook on the team.
I didn't respond to the thread starter because he made a valid post... being upset over repeated bad road performances. That was directed at the team, not other Hawks fans (the "happy happy joy joys" you mentioned).
What good comes from a loss like this? Not much, honestly. Wilson played well, but there was some awful play from the D, and some awful coaching calls, imo. The only bright spot other than that I can think of is that losses to AFC teams don't factor into tiebreakers, so if there was a game we could afford to lose out of our remaining games, it was this one. That's not to say losing is okay, or that our road performances are no big deal.
Now, me being an optimist - or one of the happy happy joy joys - I'm not going to start up all the "fire everybody!!" threads, because I think that's just reactionary and firing people in the middle of the season doesn't make for dramatic improvements. Never has. That's the territory of truly bad teams - and even with the road woes, Seattle isn't a truly bad team. But that doesn't mean I embrace mediocrity, either.

And you deserved the rebuttal. Look back - I didn't cast aspersions on anyone, I made a generic statement.
The fire everybody threads are silly. Notice I'm no part of them.
Mediocrity = finishing 9-7,8-8 or 7-9 most every season, which has defined this franchise.
I think you are upset with losing just as much as I do, but you tune into threads like this to try and make yourself feel better by being the Optimism Police. It's ok to be pissed off, especially when its beyond merited.
If I start a "Seahawks suck", "fire Carroll/Bevell" or another thread like that - game on.
But I've got as much a right to claim oblivion (the happy happy joy joys) as you do the right to single me out for it. That's attacking the poster, not the post.

really, I am sad today for my feeling.

I am with you there Rob. Like I need this shit with my health issues. The Hawks are slowly killing me.

SalishHawkFan wrote:Facts are facts. I get bashed for being "negative" when I point out the facts that aren't putting someone in a nice light. We'll here's a fact:
West coast teams only win about 22% of the time when travelling to the east coast for a 10AM game. Circadian cycles are real and in the NFL, where athletes are like fine tuned machines, the effect is blatantly obvious.
We play that game at 1pm, we probably don't lose.
People can say well, good teams overcome those obstacles. NO, THEY DON'T. We're not unique. Our team is flesh and blood, not made up of ubermen. We go to the east coast to play at 10AM and it's as if the NFL decided to gift Miami a win and curse us with a loss.
So don't get po'd at the Hawks, get PO'd at the NFL for ignoring the overwhelming data and not scheduling west coast teams to play on the east coast at 10 AM.
