, but it has been raining in Seattle for weeks they say.

Happy MLK Day to all, from the great state of NC

The rainy day streak stopped today at 27 days straight I believe the record is somewhere around 33 days. Hopefully I'll get to wash my car and actually have it stay clean for more than just a couple of hours.

Hey Softbatch

Foster's out for good with a broken ankle and Peppers is listed as questionalble, which means he'll most likely play Sunday. Injuryies suck, especially when they happen to your team.

Got to tell ya though. It was a good weekend for Seahawks diehards, such as myself, but watching Alexander lay limp in the middle of the field with Redskins players waving over help, scared the bejesus out of me. The Seahawks are going to need him in order to make it to the big game. Anyways good news is he's o.k. and will more than likely play next weekend.

It's rough being a Steelers fan in Seattle. It's gonna be even tougher when the Steelers beat the Seahawks in the superbowl. And yes, I will admit I am surprised they made it past Indy.

Manning was a cry baby after the game blaming his offensive line. I bet next season he gets sacked more times than ever after that remark.

Peyton should not have said it, but this morning on ESPN's Mike and Mike, Archie said it was taken out of context. Archie said reporters kept asking like 5 times what Peyton thought happened-coaching, o.line, etc.

An ESPN poll show that the fans thought the the Steelers were the reason for the Indy loss; not the coach, the QB, or the kicker.

Did you hear about the guy having a heart attack after Jerome fumbled. He said he was a huge Bettis fan and was so hurt that, that fumble might be his career ending play. He had a heart attack at the local bar. Doctors will install a pacemaker.

I think a lot of Steelers fans are there with that guy. I know I just about lost it thinking that Bettis's final play in a playoff game would go that way. What a shocker. There is no needed further proof that someone out there thinks that the Steelers need a bowl win. And yeah, I'm looking forward to the 'Hawks and Steelers game. It just sucks I like both teams. Course, I only like the 'Hawks cause I can go watch em when I want to. I'll always go for the Black and Gold over them any day.

Heart attack? Now there's a serious fan! All I did was yell,scream at the t.v., cuss a few times and slap the arms of my chair! My two inside dogs were freaking out! Gotta love football.

It's official Holmgrem states that Shaun Alexander will be a full go for the Carolina game as well as the starting left tackle, Shaun Locklear, you know the jail bird

It should, and I said should!!!!!!!! be an easy game if all the Seahawks have to worry about is shutting down Steve Smith. I think it's safe to say there is no way the Seahawks can loose this one to Carolina's ground game.

Imagine this

Seahawks vs. Broncos in the super bowl.
Two old AFC west rivals, wouldn't that be cool.

How soon you forget about Goings running like 5 100 games straight last year.

Peppers is questionable just to keep people guessing.

If Carolina's secondary can hold the passing game then Alexander will be stopped by the front seven, count on it.

Wow, I was rooting for the Colts in that game but when I saw that play it all changed to the Steelers, I mean how could you want a career to end like that?

O.K. I agree with you on the Peppers thing.

But think about that next statement, if you stack the line with seven there are going to holes in the secondary and Hasselbeck WILL find them garunteed. Not to mention the WR packages that Holmgren uses: Jurevicous, Jackson and Engram are alot better recievers than anything the Bears had, and most teams that Carolina has seen during the regular season.

Remember Seattle has the best Offensive line in football so don't go thinking that Seven alone will stop the run. Again, ain't gonna happen

Goings........................that was soo long ago I almost forgot. I doubt he'll gain 100 yards this weekend.

Overall though I think it will be a tough game, with Seattle comming out on top 27 to 17.


Don't hate....appreciate!

Well now I would like to see Pittsburg take it all! Bettis seems like a nice guy and would like to see him get a ring before he retires.

Carolina's lines had nothing for Seattle.

It was a bad loss.

We'll see what's up next year with a good running game again.
