Seahawks Fever

I'm not really a pro football fan at all. I mainly watch my Huskies and that's it. But this town is going nuts right now as the countdown begins to Saturday. There are 12th man flags all over the place, 12th man donuts being sold, people have decorated their yards with Seahawks colors, flags,people camped out at the stadium. The people across the street from me have a huge spruce tree decorated like a Christmas tree with Seahawks blue and green ornaments and lights. You would think there is nothing else going on in this city. It's a happening! I hope they aren't disappointed. Go Seahawks!

You're my girl and all, but I sooo don't need to hear about the momentum, lol. They are lookin' really fierce right now but my loyalty has to be with the Pats.

I think we're just taking one game at a time. Tomorrow, it's just the Saints. For me, I don't get that worked up about it, even my alma mater's team. Yes, it would be nice for them to go all the way and to win, but in the end, it's just a game. I'll probably watch some of it, but probably not the whole thing. Since I am not an avid football fan, I don't want my watching it to jinx it. I don't want to appear to anxious for them to extract victory because I am superstitious about wanting something too badly. I just find the fever affecting Seattle a curious thing.

I don't care for any sports at all, but the local enthusiasm is infectious.

I don't know enough about all the pro teams to even say anything cogent about them. Sure, the Broncos would be fine with me....Denver, right? LOL

The last and only other time the Seahawks went to the Super Bowl, they mopped the field with the Steelers the first half. Then a couple bad calls and plays later they fell apart and threw away the second half to lose the whole thing. Matt Hasselback's days with Seattle were numbered after that.

I watched that whole game and wanted them to win so badly for my city, and they lost. See what I mean about a jinx?
