  • All I know is that Phil Simms played against the '85 Bears and with LT and the '86 Giants- and he said that the Seahawks Defense hustles more than any other defense he's ever seen.

    THAT stands out...

    The racism-is-over crowd will ignore the reactions to Sherman's post game:

    Zirin over at The Nation wrote a couple of great pieces as well - Zirin writes a lot of great pieces actually - and he referenced this, which is one of the more thorough analyses that have been written since Sunday.

    Yeah, that nails it. And Sherman's own take about the word "thug" is right, too.

    how about: there's racists on the internet AND Richard Sherman is an asshole? do people not have room in their head for both of those things to be true? if I have to see another smart-dumb blog post on this whole thing I swear...

    (am I mad because the Niners lost? of course I am. Can my feelings on this topic still be understood outside of the context of the game? We'll see I guess).

    Agreed.

    In other news, there's still one more game on (or around) Feb. 2nd.

  • can't bear to watch; may go camping to avoid the hype :(

    I decided to move this weekend just to avoid it.

    Actually, i wish I could just not move and do something else.

    Peyton Manning's the only mega star in the game, Denver and Seattle are small fanbases, right? The giant slide in Times Square will help give it a boost, but yeah. I'm not surprised if it's not worldwide superhyped.

    Although I wouldn't know that. Disappeared into the backcountry last week ( :bizzo: ), the land of bearded hippyjocks in patagonia goretex--the "well I don't watch tv" people--to come around a corner and find two dudes with Seahawks jerseys on. So weird. Ice ax- "check." Avalanche transciever- "check." Football jersey- "check! GO HAWKZ!!1!"

    So strange.

    And no, I don't think it's a good thing.

    FOXY KNOXY'S BACK
    SEAHAWKS MACKLEMORE TOO MUCH
    SEATTLE VORTEX

  • rain103rain103 476 Posts


    I don't think the Hawks will have much of a problem containing Denver. The Seahawks have never been known to start 'gunz a blaze' but only because their offensive game plan is more conservative than people give them respect for. They run the ball, eat up clock, and rely on their defense to give them favorable field position to score points (most times). Seattle's defense is basically an offense in it's own.

    31-17 Seahawks

    :dodododo: Go Hawks!!! :dodododo:



    :freeway:

  • I'm rooting for Seattle.

    No one who owns Papa John's Dog Food franchises should ever win a Super Bowl.

    From Bill Simmons today:

    Q: My buddy and I came up with a great idea for a stoner flick called ???Archie Manning???s Vasectomy.??? Two Boston burnouts somehow find a time machine and go back in time to New Orleans circa 1973. They try to convince Archie Manning that he and the Saints will win the Super Bowl if he has a vasectomy. It???s The Terminator meets Bill & Ted meets Half Baked. What do you think?
    ???Gabe Perez, Los Angeles

    SG: I think you just created something that could potentially leapfrog The Verdict, The Town and The Departed as the most popular Boston movie ever. My biggest note: Definitely name the lead characters ???Murph and Sully.??? And I???d seriously consider throwing them into the title ??? something like Murph and Sully Stop the Mannings, just to avoid the inevitable lawsuit when Archie hires an army of lawyers to stop production of Archie Manning???s Vasectomy. You want to make sure this movie gets made. Even if you???re losing a better title, take consolation in Archie Manning???s Vasectomy becoming the most popular name for a fantasy football team. Which should probably happen anyway.

    I turned that shit off at the start of the 3rd. Waste of time.

    Bruno Mars was the highlight.

  • Beautiful game. I was confident that my Hawks would win, but didn't think we would completely dominate. They were so much quicker and so much more physical than the Broncos. It was great to party it up throughout the second half knowing the game was completely in hand. Pretty apparent that the Hawks-49ers was probably the actual Super Bowl.

    Final Super Bowl ratings: Most-watched TV event ever!

    http://insidetv.ew.com/2014/02/03/super-bowl-ratings-3/

    The biggest Super Bowl blowout in two decades had the biggest viewership ever, according to final numbers provided by Fox Sports.

    Super Bowl XLVIII delivered an incredible 111.5 million viewers. That???s enough to rank Sunday???s game as the most-watched U.S. TV telecast of all time, edging out 2011???s previous record-holding game.

    Not everyone was tuned in for the whole game:



    We here in the Mile High city know when the cause is lost.

    I'm happy for Seattle but blowouts are wack.

    I don't think they're wack if the prevailing wisdom is that it will be a close game and/or leaning another side. This wasn't an upset, but a lot of people thought the Broncos would do better than they did (or win).

    b/w

    I FEEL LIKE YOU WERE ROBBED BY ME AND I'M SORRY I ROBBED YOU

    This rivalry is shaping up to be like all the Niners-Cowboys NFC championship games in the 80's and 90's, minus us losing the superbowl last year, of course

    I will admit, it does seem like the Seahawks future has more upside than the 49ers at this point - our window may be closing in the next few years without some decent draft picks.
