    Players you liked who played for teams you didn't like

    Lagartixa - thank you for this wonderful thread. I've loved reading everyone's posts. Not so much teams I particularly don't like, but players I really liked included, in no particular order: Walter Payton Ronnie Lott Barry Sanders Ozzie Newsome Reggie White Mike Singletary (those blazing...

    Chris from Leicester!

    Chris, your Foxes did very well in 2015-6, to say the least! I sort-of barrack for West Ham, when I remember to. Anyway - welcome to the forum, from another international Seahawks fan!

    KJ Wright On Our Flight

    I remember watching Leon Lett completely poleaxe LT once (and of course his [Lett] two horrible clanger plays)!

    Parallax in Bellingham

    Welcome, Parallax! I know several folks in Bellingham - all of who worked at the Bellingham Herald. I met up with two of them when I was in the Seattle area back in 1996 - we and several Seattleites spent a very enjoyable afternoon/night in Seattle, and I just managed to wobble onto the last...

    My god what a terrible sport weekend!

    Rainger - I feel a bit of your pain! I barrack for Carlton in the AFL, but my first [local] sporting love: Sturt (Double Blues) lost the SANFL Grand Final to Glenelg, a week ago. Now I'm at least glad we had a great season, and went deep into Finals, but it's too early to expect you to recover...

    2 teams/2 sports in the grand final (superbowl) same city same weekend!

    But we all know and love cricket, I assume? Well, except for the worst-ever piece of "sportsmanship" - the infamous grubber.

    2 teams/2 sports in the grand final (superbowl) same city same weekend!

    I barrack for Carlton, but I'll certainly be hoping you beat Collingwood in the Grand Final. You were too good in the Prelim, even after our flashy start. I know nothing of rugby though, here in Adelaide!

    Hi, I'm the Dvl Dug

    Also, I knew Seattle had a relatively cool and wet climate, and it was midsummer here, stinking hot and horribly dry. I also (sort-of) follow West Ham United in the English (soccer) Premier League, because of a character called Alf Garnett, in an old Brit sitcom called "Till Death Us Do Part" -...

    Hi, I'm the Dvl Dug

    Late reply from me, but I have always lived in South Australia, ever since I arrived here from England as a toddler (I'm 63). I barrack [=US root, etc] for the Seattle Seahawks because when I first became interested in American Football, in 1985, I chose Seattle, simply because of a poster I...

    Most hated Seahawk

    Hate is a terribly strong word for me to say, but as for dislike and annoyance; Brian Bosworth. Back then, pre-Internet, all I had to go by was a bit of NFL on TV in Australia, and a rare mention in newspapers' sports section. Oh, I did have a subscription back then to a little pulp-paper (but...

    This is crazy

    I'm just curious about your username - please, where are you from, Kaurna Hawk? The Kaurna people were the original indigenous inhabitants of the area where the city of Adelaide now stands.

    RIP Bud Grant

    ZLP - absolutely agreed. How cruel to lose four of four Superbowls. Same for Buffalo; well, perhaps even more horrible being consecutive seasons.

    What happens if the Bills can’t get to Detroit?

    And you had to get up before you went to bed the night before... ;) Even living in a place where it never snows, I can see how the "novelty" rapidly becomes awful, from many conversations with folks who have severe snowy winters. And it's not even winter yet.

    Remembering Chuck Knox

    Sounds like a GREAT summary of a great Coach - from when I first discovered the NFL in 1985.

    It's Happened - Wilson Traded

    Totally agreed. So, I think now we have none of the players left from Superbowl XVIII? Farewell, Bobby (and Russ).

    Gratz Redalice!!

    Same from me, Red Alice! Congrats and enjoy. Commiserations to the Bengals; a superb achievement to get there.
