I hope this just pisses off the players even more and leads to a stomping of historic proportions.
Just startSomething about Friday’s report by ESPN that the Seattle Seahawks will be put up for sale after their Super Bowl 60 matchup with the New England Patriots doesn’t sit right with Seattle Sports’ Brock Huard.
And it has everything to do with who the Seahawks are playing for the championship in just nine days.
Huard also believes that if the Patriots are indeed trying to distract the Seahawks ahead of the Super Bowl, it won’t work.
“I have no doubt the Seahawks won’t be distracted,” he said, “and if anything this will be used as fuel to fight the ‘Patriot Way.'”
Shortly after Friday’s report, a spokesperson for the Paul G. Allen Trust – which has served as the ownership of the Seahawks following the death of owner Paul Allen in 2018 – responded with a statement that pushed back.
“We don’t comment on rumors or speculation, and the team is not for sale,” the spokesperson said, per NFL insider Ian Rapoport. “We’ve already said that will change at some point per Paul’s wishes, but I have no news to share. Our focus right now is winning the Super Bowl and completing the sale of the Portland Trail Blazers in the coming months.”
