I promised Susan that I would root for the Seahawks today. And I will. But I still think of them as an AFC team and I miss their old uniforms.
Update [2006-1-14 14:46:36 by susanhu]: Thanks, Boo! We are SO excited … every business sign in town is cheering on the Hawks! If they win today, my next-door neighbor gets to go the game next week (and we’re a three-hour drive + ferry ride away)! (See, we in the Northwest haven’t felt like this since the Mariners’ ’95 playoff games….) Oh, and there were these pics in today’s two Seattle newspapers:
CAPTION: DeDe Schumaier, aka Mrs. Seahawk, starts painting her face at 4 a.m. for a 1 p.m. game against the St. Louis Rams. (January 13, 2006) (Seattle P.I.)
CAPTION: Patti Hammond, 75, aka “Mama Blue,” was inducted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame in 1999 for her unwavering devotion to the Seahawks. Her Shoreline home is a temple to her favorite team, from blue-and-green carpet to a Seahawks comforter (Seattle Times)
