Cardiovascular workout

Did you see that Seahawks game?! It's been over for two hours, but Frank and I haven't recovered yet. As loyal Seahawks fans are all too aware, when things start to go bad for the Hawks, they go really bad.

So imagine our shock when their latest "tanked game" turned into an impressive victory!

Seahawks 35
Redskins 14

Marcus Trufant is our hero of the day. His perfectly timed interception for a touchdown turned the game back around and kept us in the hunt. (video)

Now if the Jags can beat Pittsburg, our joy will be complete. (No, we will never forget.)

And for next weekend: Look out, Green Bay!

Not to jinx it or anything but... if they actually beat the packers then the cowboys and make the superbowl... will this be a good thing or a bad thing for non-con north mardi gras'ers? Or will it just mean that sunday will be a good time for gillian to nip out and get some Trader Joe and Target shopping done!?!

Congratulations!!!

If the Seahawks are playing on Superbowl Sunday, it means that our house will be so loud that the cops would hafta come talk to us, if they weren't busy watching the game, too.

It would be an excellent thing and, as Ronnie says on the NCN page, you'll be "contractually required" to root for them.

Ronnie said...

Yes, what he said, although we will have a football-free part of the house for quieter visiting. :-)

Note: You satisfy the contractual requirement by wearing a blue or green shirt and not saying disparaging things about my boys.

As a BC'er, i have been contractually obligated to root for the seahawks all my life and as a kid i wore my mesh #10 Zorn faux-jersey with pride (and grass stains)!

I love y'all dearly, but (she said, putting on her cheesehat) you don't have to worry about the cops coming on Superbowl Sunday. You can just sit back and watch Mr. Farve and Mr. Petty. :-D

Jeez, Steph, are you trying to get banned from my blog or something? Get thee behind me, cheesehead! :-)
