A Surprising Seahawk Story

Gryphem has posted several very serious articles and stories recently.  It's time for a break in the tension.

 Here's a Seattle Seahawks press release from Gryphem that explains a great deal.  And you were wondering how they beat New Orleans last week... 

Tom Brady, after living a full life, died. When he got to Heaven, God was showing him around. They came to a modest little house with a faded Patriots flag in the window. "This house is yours for eternity, Tom," said God. "This is very special; not everyone gets a house up here." Tom felt special, indeed, and walked up to his house.

On his way up the porch, he noticed another house just around the corner. It was a 3-story mansion, blue with aqua green trim, a 50-foot tall flagpole with an enormous "Seahawks" flag, in every window a stained glass "12th Man" emblem, and a tiled sidewalk with a mosaic "8" in front of the door.

Tom looked at God and said "God, I'm not trying to be ungrateful, but I have a question. I was an all-pro QB, I hold many NFL records, and I even won a few Super Bowls." God said "So what's your point, Tom?" "Well, why does Hasselbeck get a better house than me?" God chuckled, and said, "Tom, that's not Matt Hasselbeck's house. It's mine."

I wouldn't want to be the Chicago Bears on Sunday. 

A Chicago Bear come Monday

And now a late note from the evening of Sunday, January 16, 2011:

The Seahawks played some inspired football, scoring 21 points in the fourth quarter alone.  Unfortunately, it was not enough to overcome the first three quarters, and the final score was 35-24.  The Seahawks have a lot to be proud of this season and postseason... but they will now have to go be proud at home in front of their televisions watching someone else in the champoinship games.  So, about the Chicago Bears as little girls in Seahawk skirts..... well, never mind.
