Personally, I think someone like Lynch or Chancellor would get the stadium far more fired up than Jody Allen would.

Any votes for Russel Wilson? If he comes, his Lord and Ciara come as bonus.
Never. No thanks

It's probably already been said but the owner raises the flag for this one.

Yep.
They had Kam on the field pumping the crowd up before the 12th man flag raising this past game. A nice compromise would just have someone else (LOB, Lynch, etc) on the field with the mic immediately after to get the crowd riled up.

Jody isn't Paul.
Paul saved football in Seattle, and is ultimately responsible for everything that has come after, including 3 SB appearances and 1 Lombardi.
Jody inherited the team because she happened to be related to Paul.
Seems just a wee bit different to me.
Look, if it's Jody, that's fine. I don't really feel all that strongly about. I just happen to think there are better options if the point is to get the crowd as fired up as possible.

I think they should have bag pipes when they raise the flag..
Two times is not even close to a ‘tradition’

You realize Jody is the one that got Paul to buy the team? She was just as big of part of saving Seattle as Paul.
Who said that? Jody?
Hey, team, on behalf of Dot Net, okay, I volunteer to raise the flag for the NFCC game. I’ll do it, myself! Thank you for the vouch of support!

It was reported when he bought the team and has been well known for several decades. Look it up.

No, I didn't realize that because I've never heard that before. Looked into it a bit and from what I could find it sounds like Jody was one of many that encouraged Paul to buy the team because it seemed like he was the best chance to keep the Seahawks in Seattle.
So yeah. It sounds like Jody played a part in encouraging Paul to buy the Seahawks, but I don't think I'm quite ready to shift the credit for saving football in Seattle from Paul to Jody, and I think saying she was just as big a part as Paul is a pretty big stretch.
