American Football (NFL)

Never quite understood this either, as the original definition was a Michigan potato farmer. It was actually slang used to describe the Irish that settled in the upper peninsula, potato farmers.  Someone picks it up once to describe a Alabama hick (which would be closer to accurate) and voila, everyone that's a touch too backwoods for the urbanites is instantly one.

Broncos not even close, Payton Manning as best QB of all time? in your dream….

So as a lifetime Seahawk fan and Seattlite, please let me explain the significance:

Our last championship was 1979 (before I was born), and that trophy currently resides in Oklahoma as part of "Thunder History". This is the lone championship truly for the city of Seattle. We earned it. So many tough years as an afterthought. At one point, we were even voted the second worst sports city in America (in terms of sports success). Yet we still supported our teams and EARNED our reputation as the toughest place to play in the nation.

We beat the second best team in the NFL in San Francisco. And the third best team in New Orleans. Denver was the victory lap. "Bout dat action, boss." Go Hawks!

[mclaincausey]

Should be the second Super Bowl, the NFL jobbed the hawks against the steelers a few years ago. Enjoy!

[seanocono]

Hawks damn near gave me four heart attacks. So proud of this team's resiliency. I will be in Glendale. Still debating whether I will spend $2k on the ticket.

[mclaincausey]

Great game and good luck. Really glad you beat the Packers

[seanocono]

Thanks, bro. That's as improbable a victory as I've ever seen. Every pick was intended for Kearse (4), and then he makes the big play to win the game. Down 12 with 3 left, I'm still in shock.

I'm still trying to get my hearing back from Jody screaming her head off

Already bought her this
