I've been a Seahawks fan since 1976, even though I was from all the way across the continent, and until October of 2019, the closest I had ever been to Seattle was Lake Tahoe. So I still really dislike both the Raiders and the Broncos from the Seahawks' days in the AFC West.
That makes it even sweeter for me that the Seahawks so thoroughly won this trade.
Hmmm... off to the thesaurus to see if there are antonyms of "hyperbole," because I understated the crap outta that one. Nope, nothing better than "understatement." Oh well.
Schneider fleeced the living crap out of the Broncos.
It is difficult for me to express just how much I love the fact that the quarter-billion-dollar extension doesn't even start for another 1.71 seasons. The soonest the Broncos can realistically rid themselves of Wilson is in 2026, and even then, they'll have paid him $161M for four years, and they'll have to eat $31.2M in dead cap.
And given the huge hole that the Wilson-forced trade left on the Seahawks' cap this season, and the way he and "Team 3" blamed everyone but Wilson for the Seahawks' problems when he was here, I'm enjoying the crap out of watching him stumble with the Broncos.
Here are a few key moments from last night's game that I especially enjoy:

an easy interception.
The booing is delicious.
This one seems oddly familiar, only instead of ruining my week like last time, it kinda guaranteed a good week:
