Some guy said Reggie Bush is the most overated player in NFL history. No way, Ryan Leaf even beat Brian Bosworth out for that one. And both tied to my Washington State.

I thought that picking Peyton Manning over Ryan Leaf was a bad move. No, my bad...

The re-designed jerseys this year are taking some getting used to for me though.

I'm with you. I don't dig the orange accents (an Edmonton Oiler color on a Sharks uni?!), and whose dumb idea were those tiny numbers on the right chest area? It distracts from the patch, which are usually works of art, like Chicago's colorful Blackhawk Indian, Florida's panther, or Atlanta's stick-wielding thrasher. There are numbers on the sleeves and on the back -- ain't that enough?

The Wave? You gotta be kidding me, in the Seahawks old Kingdome back in the 80s, that was a religous experience. The whole concrete block was shaking with excitement. Nothing better, than an enthusiastic wave racing around the stadium. Only done, when real fans, are really excited. It died, when the team went through a long period of suckiness. Bill the Beerman, RIP, and the Hawks....

You needed five years to think of a rebuttal? ;)
