I’m going to really try to just enjoy Marshawn Lynch’s runs. This may be his last game as a Seahawk. :(

My wife read where they had a 12th man rally today down at the Superbowl stadium. Security was planning on 5,000 people to show up. 20,000 showed instead!

Go Hawks!

Yes, it may indeed be. As 'Hawks fans we realize, perhaps more than many football fans, how rare and special these opportunities are.

This team has brought together people as a community all over the Northwest, providing an avenue by which, fleetingly, we can set aside our differences and be as one. Vicariously we live through the players, the gladiators and supermen of our time, feeling what they feel - joy, anger, sadness, exultation...

Vicariously, we run with Lynch between those big bruising defenders.

Vicariously, we feel Baldwin's boulder on the shoulder as we, too, have as individuals been slighted in life and have had to overcome our pride.

Vicariously, we scramble with Wilson as men and women under tremendous pressure from great peril for whom failure is not an option.

Vicariously, we live and die with this team.

Football is a metaphor for life.

Go Hawks!
