    Seahawks possibly moving back to AFC?

    If there's a team in London any time soon, it'll be the Jaguars. I think the PP is correct, the 32 team format has been working quite well and I think it's unlikely that they'd award two expansion teams and end up with some divisions that had five teams. I have a hard time believing that So...

    Overtime rule

    I have to just mention that any change that would result in more ties would just be flat out completely unacceptable to the vast majority of NFL fans. This is not soccer. This is not hockey. I also suspect that any college style or high school style overtime where teams alternate possessions...

    Bam Bam

    With the current CBA there is essentially no meaningful contact in practices. Players are much more rusty when tackling as a result. They are expected to get up to speed in the preseason games, and if they don't play in those, it makes it worse... even the guys who play all four preseason...

    Sunday forecast

    BTW the NFL mandates that any equipment like that which is used on one sideline is made available to the other sideline. Fairly certain I saw those misting units on both sides of the field, FWIW.

    Should I go (to the black hole) ??

    Not worth it, will never go there again. A friend of mine and I, not wearing Seahawks colors, not being too ridiculous with the cheering, in expensive seats, were assaulted -- my friend ended up with a fairly large scar on his nose -- he's a mild mannered guy and was goaded into fighting by the...

    Ticket prices

    I find it seems to vary a lot this time of year. Frankly at this moment most of the universe isn't paying attention to the NFL. Typically what I see is that the moment we get to Labor Day and people are thinking about back to school, they realize that fall is coming, and football is coming...

    Goodbye 12th Man

    I call BS. The stadium, in the normal location, has the same thing it's had for years. HOME OF THE 12TH MAN This is southwest corner, above the 100 level. It's a huge sign, has been there for years, and if there was any plan to phase this phrase out, it would be gone by now. It was there...

    buying tickets at C.Link field before actual game

    Wrong. Scalping is legal in Seattle. It's illegal to sell tickets (at any price) near the stadiums. http://www.seattlepi.com/sports/basebal ... 212870.php I personally would never buy a ticket from any of these resellers near the stadiums. They are providing a service, true, but the way...

    Lombardi Replica

    Conversely, I suffered through some hideous seasons... 2-14 records, seasons where Jeff Feagles, punter, was our MVP, a season where freaking Jim Mora was our head coach (thank god it was only one year), and the debacle in Detroit... I feel I deserve a trophy. If it wasn't $550, I'd buy one in...

    Seahawks Season tix; lost or just an odd way to send them?

    ISC is an international customs sorting facility It is very common for mail to be routed to whoever has capacity and/or whoever is responsible for the destination region I've seen the ISC in San Francisco be used for Canada parcels before I would not worry about it in the slightest

    Article:The Seattle Seahawks’ Youth Could Portend a Dynasty

    Worth a read. The Seattle Seahawks’ Youth Could Portend a Dynasty (Yes, Really) http://fivethirtyeight.com/datalab/seat ... es-really/ For the curious, these guys look at various different situations through the lens of statistics. They like to use math in unusual situations...

    Will RW's Divorce Affect His Play?

    Well, and you don't even need to take rumors or Internet into account, it's pretty obvious RW is a thoughtful guy, and so one can assume he wouldn't take such a drastic action without giving it some serious thought and possibly trying counseling or getting advice from a few other people and then...

    Single game ticket sales / blue pride question:

    No. There will be no early single game ticket sales to season ticket holders or Blue Pride members this year. (They haven't done that for three or four years from what I recall.) I asked a while ago and was told this...

    Seahawks could renegotiate with Lynch without losing face

    It's worse than that. If they change the contract for this year, they end up with $3 million in cap space used this year -- even though Marshawn wouldn't see any of it -- because there's currently $3 million in cap being used by his existing contract. So, let's assume he wants at least as much...

    Changes at the Clink

    These are the same people that came up with Seahawks Reign... and when people hated it thought that maybe they needed to make it more rock and roll... (the original was kind of country sounding)... my ears start to bleed just thinking about it...

    Changes at the Clink

    Yeah, there were studies done that campuses that banned kegs actually had more underage drinkers who got in trouble with the law than campuses that did not ban kegs. It was due to the obvious -- banning kegs meant everyone was mixing hard liquor and you can't really tell how strong a drink is...

    Seahawks Visit White House May 21

    I bet if you looked into it, he was probably doing something in Oakland with youth. That's my best guess. If not, the man deserves an off season. I can completely understand the attitude that you get paid to play football, all the other stuff is just other stuff, and if you'd rather take your...

    [RUMOR] Guy on Reddit says Sherman is celebrating extension

    Yeah, I live in Ballard (formerly very blue collar) and there are two grocery stores within a mile of my house that both stock Dom Perignon -- usually have at least a case and a half -- at $120 or so per bottle. Most would consider that top shelf champagne.

    Seahawks stadium - things you would upgrade

    When they add seats, they'll be on the 300 level, behind the 12th Man flagpole. It'll fill in the large gap that's there currently. Should add a few thousand seats.

    Seahawks stadium - things you would upgrade

    Yes, there are already quite a few SRO seats, mostly in the south end, upper level. From what I've heard, there are only a few sections where standing through the whole game is frowned upon.
