Apologies for the lack of posts. I know you have all been holding your breath for my comments about the last 3 weeks' games and that whole replacement ref fiasco. In all honesty, The Fan killed me. (I would post a photo of me passed out in my Steelers shirt on the couch but my man vetoed it. Party pooper.)
I'm still in recovery mode but managed to pay attention to the second half of the Seahawks vs. 49ers game tonight. You know what? I like the Seahawks. I don't care if one of their wins was the result of a controversial call by the replacement refs in the last seconds of the game against the Packers all those weeks ago. I liked that call. It was an awesome pass and it got the people going. And people can blame those replacement refs all they want, but what about the non-replacement officials in the booth who supported the call after reviewing it on tape and then all the other "official" NFL people who continued to support the call and let the win stand days later? I personally thank them for making that call because it helped me beat my man in the weekly Pro Pick 'Em pool at work and I'm not giving my $40 back. Hands off my mani-pedi money!
I like the Seahawks for others reasons too. Their head coach, Pete Carroll, was the head coach at USC when I was there and he's a total silver fox. Seattle is a great city (from July-September when the sun is shining). Marshawn Lynch is a pretty bad ass running back. And I love their new uniforms. A little pop of neon is very "in" this year.
