Well, on behalf of YOUR God, I am sure he appreciates you telling me to get over MYSELF for defending a man who has put hundreds of millions of his own money into supporting those who need the help.

Tell you what... I'll "get over myself" the day you put up 9 digits of your own cash, and you do something for those OTHER third world countries that Paul isn't supporting. I don't suppose you're supporting them or doing anything to help. Paul is doing what we call "leading by example". He has agreed to give away everything but like 1% of his total wealth. Tanzania is a country that he cares deeply about and has given of himself and his time and money to support a cause. How dare I respect and stand up for the man, right? He can only get kudos if he does it for EVERY country.

OR........ maybe he's doing exactly what great men do and leading the way. Maybe Jerry Jones realizes he has a huge stadium full of space and he puts some of his proceeds toward Ghana? And maybe every other overwhelmingly rich sports owner steps up and does something good, and Paul is the one who led the way, rather than throwing up another Miller Lite ad.

The fact that you can possibly be offended by what Paul and his organization has done speaks volumes about you sir. The fact that you say I need to get over MY self for praising a man who has done a wonderful thing and tried to help out in his own way really shows me a lot about general attitudes. The selfishness expressed here is pretty damned amazing.

Yeah, I will applaud our team owner when he does something great, and I'll applaud every other team owner when they go above and beyond as he has done. He's a trendsetter and we're lucky to have him and should be proud. Not mouthing off and saying that he's apparently not doing enough by only picking one country. Put up or shut up. You haven't created an advertising campaign to try to help build an economy of scale in a third world country. Paul has. And I fully support him, and I'd like to think that our fans are classy enough to understand what he's doing here. You don't get it? I feel bad for you... but I don't feel bad about responding, because frankly your post just makes you look like a heartless jerk and that's something you'll have to live with. I won't feel bad for a second whether I go overboard in supporting Paul's mission and vision or not. I've lived through every other owner and what he's done for all of us is beautiful. Taking that cash and paying it forward to the homeland of my wife and children's ancestors makes me feel better and better each day about being a fan of OUR Seattle Seahawks. Way to go Paul! Don't listen to the haters. Keep the momentum rolling.

Oh, right, that was after the Miami game. Either way, I'm 1-1 bashing Tanzania. I'll be 2-1 when I bash it tomorrow before the game and we win, so don't worry.

Alright, Throwdown; come take your medicine. I typed mad smack against Tanzania before the game in .NET chat today, and LOOK WHAT HAPPENED.

Us as Niners fan have every right to rep Niners all day everyday when we have the hardware to back it up do can u guys say that???

The Gods of Tanzania were hungry today!

The power of Tanzania is stronger than any one of us mere mortals.

I haven't seen it mentioned it yet, but apparently today is literally Tanzanias independence day.

BAHAHAHAHAHAHAAAAAAA

It's true!

@seaswab: from what I understand, Mr Allen is providing the advertising free of charge because that country needs the outside dollars that tourism brings. So suck it.

@Roland: Pete has mentioned tanzania, seahawks.com did a tongue in cheek video about the record of the teams playing at C-link, and it isn't hurting anybody but you and the swab. The two of you can suck it together.

I hope this trend takes off, and instead of terrible towels, the colors of Tanzania become part of our fan mystique in Seattle.

Wrong. Tanzania is paying for the ad. And no Tanzania colors need to be part of anything that's the dumbest thing I've ever heard. What's next? An Ethiopia ad on the field?

Anyone that thinks we are winning games because of an ugly ass Tanzania ad needs their head examined.

Dude. It's fun. Quit being a jerk.
