American Football (NFL)

I have zero problem with this given how Seattle fans flew a 12th Man banner with a plane over Candlestick, and also given what dicks some of their players act like between the lines (and even on the sideline: I'm looking at you, KJ Wright).

As a Seahawks fan, I am completely okay with this.

As MCL mentioned, our players do act like jerks (this trickles down from Pete Carroll; his SC guys were even worse). And our fans started it.

This is just the beginning, though. We will see more.

I was kind of pulling for the Hawks, I mean, how can you not like Wilson, but some of the defenders and Golden Tate really rubbed me the wrong way.

[mclaincausey]

That said, I think the Seahawks are at the very least the NFC Champs this year.

[seanocono]

Yeah, I like our chances with home field, and we're built for a foul-weather Super Bowl.

The NFL Playoffs are always wild, though.

History isn't on our side, either. Last city title was in '79, and that trophy resides in OKC.

Great rivalries need stuff like this, and frankly, the NFL has crushed a lot of the truly incendiary stuff.  Even Philadelphia fans act like functional human beings these days.  Well, mostly.

Speaking of fans "acting like functional human beings" this is refuckinghilarious…

My hometown team is looking respectable.  I'd like to see more points, considering how much yardage they're producing.

And this inability to get past the 1 yard line is infuriating.

[mclaincausey]

If I were you if like to see Cam run less.

[bagley920]

He has been much less of a runner this year. But gotta use the wheels if it calls for it

The O line isn't doing their job

Well, to be fair, $cam should have gone up and over and Tolbert was on his way to the turf before Brooks was anywhere near him… This is a great O line going up against a great front but their ball carriers have to do their job too.

[mclaincausey]

This is embarrassing officiating. Wow.

[bagley920]

Really bad calls. A headbutt is a headbutt. Should be called both ways

Absolutely, and they have missed a couple of blatant PIs, an obvious TD, and 12 men in the huddle. I'm kind of amazed that a playoff crew is having such a hard time with easy calls.

The trip that went uncalled last night could have decided that game too. That would have been a first down on a drive where the Colts could have tied. Pats scored on their gift possession and that becomes a 14 point swing. There's an official who's job it is to hawk the QB, period. It shouldn't be possible for that call to go unnoticed.
