    Seahawks.NET Celebrates 20 Years!

    Ah yes, I remember now (sort of) - Bill's website had "squidly" somewhere in his URL. Thanks for the reminder!

    Seahawks.NET Celebrates 20 Years!

    Ha - I guess that ages us both somewhat! :) He liked to be known as William latterly - had his own website which I haven't visited for, what, 10 years or so. Can't remember what it was (no idea if it's still available), but it wasn't solely Seahawks stuff on there.

    Seahawks.NET Celebrates 20 Years!

    Good lord, yes (the netnews group anyway). rec.sport.football.pro.seattle-seahawks - something like that. I remember the likes of Bill Besette, Bill Tommisser, Peter Reggio & others. There was someone else - California Kent - who I remember having a "discussion" with on the main NFL site on...

    Seahawks GM: A team tried to trade for Rashaad Penny

    And that nicely sums it up for me. Player we wanted - we didn't have much bargaining power (in terms of draft picks) to go much below where we got him. If we also hampered the Patriots' draft plans (not that I'm bitter or anything ;) ) - bonus! :D Most of the first round draft grades I've...

    MB on Pete Carroll

    That's not a good approach to management. I line-manage a couple of young lads (in an IT environment, not sport) and if I "let them be themselves" they'd never get anything done.

    Poll: Who do we re-sign

    Pretty much my take on it as well. Clark especially is a must-sign.

    2018 Roster Poll

    I've gone for three - Earl, Sherm and either Kam or Bennett (but not both; but I hope it's Kam who stays). I think Cliff's days are numbered despite what is being reported positively about his wellbeing currently.

    Nickname for the offense..

    Anyone who's a Wishbone Ash fan will know what this means: F.U.B.B. The last three words are "up beyond belief" - i bet you can guess the first!

    Just saw the non-pick 6

    The non-PI call on Graham in the endzone was also stunningly bad.

    Your personal all time "Shame Picks" Time to heal.

    Ha - we passed on Mays and got Chancellor much later (it was the same draft, was it?) Someone got the arse end of the stick there! :lol:

    Seahawks biggest draft bust

    Hi all - first-time poster...I like this forum very much. Reminds me somewhat of the UK Seahawkers one way back in the day. I agree with much of this thread - esp. Curry. He looked a man among boys at WF and when we drafted him I was jumping for joy (metaphorically), so I guess he's the one...
