it's this game against the bills. People always b**** on here that the league is out to get us with officiating and wants us to lose. Well no one can say that this week. If we lost this game against the Bills it would make our primetime game next week much less meaningful, something the league would hate to have happen. So let's see some calls go our way for once this week, Roger!

Plus they're letting us wear the Grey's which is practically cheating.

Did you know that if you go to Tanzania wearking the wolf grey, they'll worship you and give you free stuff?

I was thinking the same thing. The Bills market is smaller than ours and a 9-5 Seahawks vs a 9-4-1 Niners will be one of the most important games of the year playoff wise.

Wolf Greys are great on paper but until they can show up in a game the way Tanzania does it's all just speculation and "upside". Right now Tanzania is first team all pro.

Completely agree with the OP. Next week's game means absolutely nothing to the league if we don't win against the Bills. They don't give a rip if we slip into the playoffs on a wild card berth or not, but to have a matchup with one game left in the season where the division essentially is on the line, it's huge.

It was The Tanzania's idea to do the wolf gray alternate jerseys in the first place so that is a trick question, Roland.

Just remember that if you buy into this way of thinking, there will soon be a game where the NFL definitely wants us to lose. Say, Green Bay at Lambeau?

There is a reason why the NFL schedules all the inter-divisional games that they do in the final 2 weeks.

And they want it to pay off. I'm not saying the fix is in and neither is the OP as I read it, but hey-sports is
about storylines.

Now, we'll know the OP is onto something if the Seahawks actually get some calls in their favor after the GB "debacle."

To listen to the media, we're the only team in the last decade to get a questionable call. Hell, I'm not used to it as a Hawks fan.

Although I feared to voice it, I had the same thought as the OP.

We finally have a "Jerome Bettis is from Detroit" level story brewing around the team right now. The NFL will want a big time game next Sunday Night. NBC is praying to the Mayan gods that next Sunday night is a huge football game.

The only way that happens - we take care of business in Toronto and NE does the same in Foxboro.

Bring on Bill "I'm really sorry I screwed up." Leavy and break out the tinfoil hats, everybody, if the yellow flags start flying our way.

I believe there are grey wolves in Tanzania but it appears somebody forgot to tell Google.

You never see Wolf Grey's and Tanzania at the same place, same time.

Coincidence?

The NFL owes us an XL* like reffing performance in our favor against the stealers in a Super Bowl! Then, we'd be even!

Yeah you get two sets of flap jacks from your two new wives and three old goats from your neighbor in the next grass hut. That's why I just got my tickets from Expedia! Go Hawks!!!
