I just got back from the Cosmopolitan in Vegas. I missed Richard Sherman staying at the hotel by a day or two which stinks.

Because I was wearing Hawks gear the whole time a lot of people came up to me to tell me about seeing Sherm and talk to me about the Hawks. I saw a lot of people wearing Hawks gear in Vegas - some guy on the street yelled 'LOB' at me.

Anyway one guy who said he's a big Seahawks fan came up to me and showed me 4 or 5 pics on his phone that he took of Sherm at the craps table. He said Sherm was cool and talking to people.

This guy tells me that he asked Sherm something like 'Since that Super Bowl loss are you guys coming out with a chip on your shoulder next year'?

At that point Sherm stared right in the guys eyes, grabbed his hand and gave him one of those chest bump/man hug things. Basically telling the guy that the Seahawks are already ready to dominate next year.

Before somebody asks I do not have a link to ESPN or Twitter for this story just wanted to share what I heard.

Vegas has a surprisingly big Hawks following. Lots of Seattle transplants living down there. Scooters pub is usually packed on gameday.

Good story...

Three weeks ago, I met Marshawn at Seatac. Told him that the twelves would love to see him back next year...all he said was "we'll see", I said go hawks and went on my way. So yes, I am taking credit for Beastmode coming back...

I would've believed it if you had given him a bag of skittles. Try harder next time. :twisted:

Damn, I was down there last week and would have loved to run into him. I may have seen you, I saw quite a few people with Hawks gear and I talked to quite a few of them. Except the tweaker looking couple that I saw in Planet Hollywood, I did not get close to them and wish they weren't wearing Seahawks jerseys.

"We'll see" is more than what most reporters got.

So did any of you drop some coin on the Hawks returning next year? (pics or it never happened)


Also, random question.

Anyone ever go to the casinos in Denver? do they have sportsbook there?

I will when I go down in June. I don't think casinos in Colorado have sports betting.

I did not. I think I've made a total of three sports bets in my trips to Vegas. I did take a glance at Mandalay Bay and I believe the Seahawks were 7/1 to win it all next year.

Sports betting is only legal in Nevada and Delaware as far as I know
