I'm hoping for a 9-7, expecting an 8-8 and fearful that we'll see 7-9. However, anyway you slice it and dice it, I expect a return to mediocrity, which is an order of magnitude better than the pathetic 4-12 of last year. Stupid people will be the cause of the end of civilization.

Anything over 500 is the ginzu knives. Stupid people will be the cause of the end of civilization.

Evidently the NFL doesn't think Mora's Seahwaks will amount to anything for at least a season. In one season the Seahawks went from a respected team to a joke like the Lions?!? The 'new' NFL policy of only putting a select few teams on prime time each year really sucks, and I truly hopes blows up in their faces. While I don't want to see boring games, watching the Raiders getting thrashed by any team is something I would watch once a year. I want a chance to see the Lions get their 1st win in a decade in a PT game, hopefully thrashing the Cowboys (who have way too many PT games). Guess what NFL. When every PT game involves the Cowboys, Patriots, and/or some NY team I quit being interested. When I can't see my home team getting respect after 1 losing season I get upset, especially when I see you catering to the Cowboys. Come on NFL, the Seahawks have done better than the Cowboys in the playoffs the last 10 years, how come they get so many PT games? Losing interest, which means you are losing my viewership, meaning eventual loss of adverising $'s, meaning DEATH of the NFL....

This is, I believe, the motivation behind the flex games, for example. Unfortunately, the Seahawks do not qualify in either of the two categories. They haven't been very good for a few years and they are in a medium market that is unfortunately surrounded by zero major markets. Geography dictates that the Seahawks will never qualify in category 2 (major market), so the only sure fire way to get prime time visibility is to get very good (cateogry 1). I have not given up believing that the Seahawks can become a championship caliber team. As for them caring about loss of viewship from here in NFL Siberia (aka Seattle), they don't. Our viewership is a rounding error. Stupid people will be the cause of the end of civilization.

I swear its almost like a bunker mentality, its us vs the world. No one gives a rats you no what about us and that I think makes us cool and kinda unique. GO HAWKS!

I waited patiently for 10 years for that to happen and was conned and resoundingly stiffed. Let's hope we don't have to wait another decade. I don't know about you, but I am running out of patience and decades. Stupid people will be the cause of the end of civilization.

While I take a sense of pride in being born and bred PNW and accept what that entails, I get tired of having NY and Texas shoved down my throat in sports. The NFL lost my households Monday viewership due to their lousy games full of 'major market' teams and are now probably losing my Sunday night viewership due to the same reasons. If I am nothing more than a rounding error then fine, I honestly don't care. I wonder if Mr Allen, the very wealthy owner of the Seahawks has the same attitude as well. I'm sure he doesn't mind losing the any extra revenue and exposure from PT games, in fact I bet he begged the NFL to continually kiss East coast derriere...

All we can do as fans is be loud and crazy like always and hope that the team is good enough to get some attention, if we start winning a lot they really will have to start putting our games on because people will want to the Hawks. Until that happens all we can do is either not watch it, or pray that the Hawks can win a superbowl and gain some legitimacy.
