    And the worst color scheme in the NFL....

    They beat the hell out of the industrial waste puke green color scheme. I also never cared for the roadkill whites and preferred wolf gray for our away uniforms, which seems to have disappeared. My problem with the throwbacks is the stoned seagull logo. Although I prefer the current shade of...

    25 QBs have been signed in the NFL

    He definitely belongs in our ROH. After all, he's arguably the best QB in franchise history and led us to two SB's, winning one. And I'll join you in thanking him for his contributions to what is the best period of Seahawk football in franchise history. If I'm in the stadium during his ROH...

    25 QBs have been signed in the NFL

    IMO Russell was never willing and/or able to change his quarterbacking style to compensate for his diminishing physical skills. His lack of height, compensated for early in his career by his mobility and ability to extend plays, now became a liability as it caused reluctance to throw passes...

    Vrabel & Russini

    That hasn't been confirmed yet, but it's very likely as apparently the photos were professional quality and not taken by some random cell phone.

    Vrabel & Russini

    Agreed. It damages Vrabel's credibility when it comes to having to counsel his players on things like the league's Personal Conduct Policy. But then again, his boss was caught up in a sting at a rub-and-tug joint a few years back, so it would be a bit hypocritical for the team to take any kind...

    Vrabel & Russini

    Men who have had extramarital affairs haven't been vilified to nearly the same degree that women have. But in this case, with Russini's position as "an NFL insider" and where she stands to benefit from getting exclusive information from a COTY coach, she probably deserves a little more flack...

    Vrabel & Russini

    I agree that it won't cost him his job, but had he been on the hot seat, something like this could be the straw that broke the camel's back. No one's going to fire the reigning COY over something like this. At my former place of employment (I've been retired for 8 years), there were...

    Vrabel & Russini

    I tend to agree. IMO getting all those big bucks that is way above what us common folks earn comes with some strings attached, which includes public relations, that you have to behave like a model citizen, and model citizens don't cheat on their wifes. Vrabel and every other high profile NFL...

    Love The Sonics. Hate The NBA.

    I'm with ya on this one. Part of it, at least for me, is generational. The way the NBA promote their game, with hip-hop and rap music at every break in the action, is a complete turn off for me. And before anyone wants to suggest that my dislike for that genre has something to do with the...

    VMAC getting upgraded

    Yeah, and a massage parlor in the basement.

    The Sonics are coming home!!

    I wouldn't do a touchdown dance just yet. We've crossed the 5-yard line, not the goal line. It's first and goal at the 5. The proposition still has one more hurdle to clear. A potential ownership group needs to put forth a proposal, and it has to be approved by 3/4 of the league owners, or...

    Jaguars sign Bobo to offer sheet

    Which is one of the reasons why I stick with a #12 River Dog. They can't trade him or let him walk in free agency.

    Jaguars sign Bobo to offer sheet

    That's pretty much where I stand. I absolutely love Jake Bobo. He reminds me a lot of Joe Jurevicius off our 2005 team. Great blocking WR. Plus, Bobo is a very popular guy in the locker room. I remember the team chanting "more Bobo!" You hate to lose a guy like that. But our WR room is...

    Seahawks exercise 5th year options for JSN and Spoon

    I'm sure you're referring to the fact that up until we picked up Charles Cross's 5th year option last season, that we had never exercised that option since it became part of the CBA back in 2011 that we were the only team that had never picked one up. That was more a reflection on both our poor...

    The Sonics are coming home!!

    Yeah, I actually went to one of those playoff games vs. the Bullets. It was held in the Kingdome. But I can't remember if it was the '79 season or the year before when they were in the finals and lost. I'm hoping that we eventually get a team as there's a lot of people out there that are...

    Anyone left?

    I'm not calling out the individual poster as everyone seems to do it and I'm likely in the minority of those who don't, but I always bristle when someone uses the word "hate" so casually. To me, if you hate someone, you wish that they were dead. I reserve the term for hardened criminals, child...

    The Sonics are coming home!!

    Wikipedia is not an official website. Anyone can contribute to it, and outside of decency and other forms of literary etiquette, there's not a lot of regulation or oversight. Come back when you see something like that on OKC Thunder or the NBA's official website.

    The Sonics are coming home!!

    It's very likely to happen, but it's still not a done deal. It ain't over until it's over.

    The Sonics are coming home!!

    Do you have a link? The only thing I've been able to find is that the Board of Governors are scheduled to vote on expansion next week. https://bleacherreport.com/articles/25407406-nba-expansion-teams-las-vegas-seattle-reportedly-eyed-whats-timeline-vote-debut-season?utm_source=copilot.com...

    Sonics return

    Same here. I started drifting away from the NBA well before the Sonics left. The last NBA game that I've watched whistle to whistle was when Michael Jordan and the Bulls faced off against John Stockton and the Jazz in the NBA Finals, mid to late 90's if I recall. Part of it is a...
