Last Night's Celebration of Pete (Pictures)

[GemCity]

No doubt he is an incredible coach. His energy is unparalleled. Players love him.

But, everyone knew it was time for change.

That doesn’t mean it will get better. Doesn’t mean it will get worse…although I wouldn’t be surprised if it did.

I’m most looking forward to seeing how another group of coaches maximize our guys talents.

I feel like we have some Top 10, Top 5 even type of guys. Debatable so..,not worth getting into a back and forth here.

Exciting times.

Lots of old timers in the pic, few current players?

According to Sherman, a bunch of current players showed up too.

That was were my mind went to at first! How can i trust him after what he did. However, this one time, i will give him the benefit of the doubt.

Oh yeah, no hard feelings. It was great to see Russ there with all the old SB players......and I know Pete harbors no ill will towards Russ.

We will love Russ once again, how can we not? Dude's the greatest QB in franchise history and was instrumental in helping us win our 1st SB. Time will heal (for most of us anyway).

There was a time when we were all in unity loving the hell out of all these guys! Greatest decade of sports for me.

No doubt

Brock and Salk asked KJ today why the guys were so loyal to Pete. KJ didn’t hesitate - he immediately replied that it’s because Pete is loyal to them no matter what has happened.

When Pete said last year (after the article saying Wilson tried to get him fired) that he would always hang with his guys and never leave them, he meant it. That’s part of what makes him special as a coach and a man.

I have seen this picture circulating, some people are saying it's old. Just curious if its come out that it really is last night? if so that's cool they all came out to support.

Watch the Sherm/Bayless video

 

[Crizilla]

Very cool. That's how it should be.

You know who was surprisingly absent? Geno Smith! Come to think of it, Drew Lock, k9, and many more current players.

 

[Welshers2]

Me3 tried to get Pete fired and now is at his retirement party LOL. Well whatever. Pete is a saint and a legend

 

[Mad Dog]

Pete always understood that he was asking a lot of players to play hard for him. It’s such a physical game. So he was going to be their fiercest advocate. It was rare for Pete to ever throw anyone under the bus. He knew even the Cody Barton’s of the world were giving it their all.

You do know that Pete, JS, Jody and Russ have never confirmed that story.

You do know that Pete, JS, Jody and Russ have never confirmed that story.

PC came close to confirming it at a press conference. The fact is PC is as classy as it gets and still welcomed Me3 back with open arms after everything. He's a better man than I, because I certainly don't want anyone who tried to get me fired at my retirement party

There were many more there than just this picture. Geno was front and center for the press conference, visibly shaken. If you don’t think that current roster doesn’t love Pete you are sorely mistaken. The fact so many former players, which many thought there was bad blood, showed up speaks volumes about Pete.

 

[Floridahawk79]

Probably some left town already

sad day

Don't be shy, tell us all exactly what you're trying to say.

I didn't see a picture of KJ there either so I guess that means he has no respect for him even though he was almost crying on air talking about it.

 

[TheLegendOfBoom]

Too bad, Lynch, Michael Bennett, KJ, Avril, Bruce Irvin wasn’t there!

 

[James in PA]

Too bad, Lynch, Michael Bennett, KJ, Avril, Bruce Irvin wasn’t there!

Yeah, I was wondering about Bennett, Avril, and KJ. They seem like 3 guys who'd be there if they could. Marshawn, on the other hand, marches to his own beat.

Does KJ lives in Seattle?
